This belt is well built and I see no wear and tear even after the several years of use. It could use a bit more padding but I still thinks it’s pretty comfortable.

No issues with this thing, it’s built well and works well on my plate loaded low row. Really makes my hamstrings burn.

I actually like these because they aren’t exactly like other bumpers on the market, they are more rigid and less bouncy. I wanted these for farmer carry and axle pressing and really just wanted something the size of standard plates but could easily drop without damaging the floor or pads. They serve that purpose for me.

I was happy to support a local Iowa fabricator when they were offering good deals on plates during Covid. The plates are fairly accurate, off my a few tenths, nothing crazy. The opening is a bit larger than I’d like so there is a bit of slop when lifting, but it’s not excessive. I’ve only lost a small amount of coating in the 5 years I’ve had them, so overall, it was a decent buy.

I have no idea what brand of handles these are and they look like nothing on the market but thought I’d give a review. The good is, they have decent knurling so they’re easy to grip but the bad is they suck to load and don’t fit standard collars so I have to add extra fabric under the collars to keep them from slipping. Ok in a pinch but would rather have top loaded.

I’m not a world class strongman and I’m the only one using these so for me, they are perfect, especially for the price. I could see how the could wear out if they had extreme use but for the average gym owner, they are a good buy.

Shhhhh, don’t tell anyone about “this old thing” or you might get me in trouble. If she doesn’t have this version, she might be too young for you bro.

The ONLY way to tell people you like to lift hard and live easy. This is one of my personal favorites because the colors are 🤌🏼
