They’re a fairly good price and from the ones I’ve weighed are close to their advertised weight. Most of my weights are these with the exception of a few strength co plates. I do like the tri-grip option for loading deadlifts.

I used this in Keith’s gym and it was okay. Not my favourite deadlift bar as it’s very whippy (is that a word?) but it was still a fun time. This was very expensive when it existed and it’s why I don’t have one. RIP Kabuki.

I have the special edition red from the first LHLE and they are the coolest collars I have. The only thing I don't trust them on is anything I have to drop. They fit any bar, stay in place, and it's kinda neat that I can load the bar without removing them.

Got to use these at Big Cams last year. Not as good as real stones but we’re still fun to play with and set a 150lb to shoulder. If you can get a real stone you should, but these will do.

I got to use this at The Dam Shed with Big Cam. These are not as easy as they appear! 45lbs one hand? Easy. 100lbs two hands? Not a damn chance. I kinda want one for my gym tbh.

This is the only one I’ve used, and it’s borrowed from Big Cam after he heard I could use it to train log movements. Honestly, it does the job and I also like using it when my shoulder hurts. Axle collars fit which is nice to secure weights for log press, and the grips are spaced nicely. Thanks Cam

Not even close to the best SSB I’ve had on my back, but absolutely does the job it’s supposed to do. The handles are stiff and don’t leave a lot of room for mobility. They also hit your knees if you squat low. You have to get in the habit of raising them a bit during your descent.

This does the job I need it to do. I remember when I bought it, some random guy told me (in front of the sales manager) I could get one at another store for half the price. I asked if he could squat three plates and if he would trust that rack to support it. I wish the footprint was slightly smaller, but considering what I use it for, it’s fine. The safety arms are clutch for sure. Worth the extra few bucks.
