Built in Covid... but that was enough to start the ...Obsession? I was told IF I was going to takeover a wall, I would need to clean up the walls. This turned into mudding all the walls, priming, and painting. But, since I was painting, I was allowed to do some custom paint. White walls for the whole garage, then some painters tape and black paint on the gym side led to my best attempt at the “Star Wars Hyperspeed Jump” in black and white. This was more clearly visible when the gym was less equipped. Since 2020, I've invested in more equipment, flipped, traded, sold, and built more equipment. I've also changed training styles multiple times. But, mornings in the gym haven't stopped.

I have a wooden version of this from amazon (was $10) works great and very humbling. Would have been more than $10 to build my own. There's something different on these than just pinching a block or a weight plate.

I wanted to see if there was anything to the 'larry scott' concept. Whether it's myth, placebo, or reality, the -5 arc DOES feel different. In a good way. I still do neutral grip pull downs on different bars and single arm pull downs with my rotating handles, but this does make you approach your lats differently and I like it. Rogue, in typical coolness, gave me a refund for a small part of this when my anodized handles were scuffed/marked minorly irregularly.

This thing has gotten a lot of love in 2026 and it is clear why. It works great. So smooth, great knurl, cheap 70 degree add on (have not tested), and nice caps at the end of the grip. Like everyone says, curls and press downs are great. Close grip lats are lovely. I don't use for rows due to close grip limiting my ROM, but if you like those, it'll feel awesome. best part is its actually reasonably priced. Color customization and price makes it more worth it to me vs. Force 6.

This is a great jump rope. Company sells replacement parts and fun designs. I got better at single legs, double unders, long sessions, and more using this. If you really have double unders this is great for speed.

I technically have the Pro 90s which are slightly smaller than these and 'discontinued' but the concept is the same. I use these for heavy DB work because I have a fixed 5-50 set. They're also a back up second set of DBs if someone is working out with me and we need the same weights. They're durable, simple, and the right level of 'retro' for me to love them. If I was going to have one set of dumbbells, I'd do something different. But with a fixed 5-50 set, these are a great value and option for heavies or secondaries. I also have the kettlebell handle which makes for nice farmers carries (not KB work). BUT the powerblock adjustable kettlebell is great, it's a precurser to what Freak Athlete developed.
