Overall it’s not that bad to put together yourself just make sure you build it where it’ll be used… this is the second one I’ve made, decided to go with all stall mats honestly just for a different look and cause I’ll be doing stones on this platform

I didn’t know how far I was going to take the home gym at first so I started off small with screw three pieces of a 2x6 to make an L shape with a back rest and just had the plates in there. Did the job well enough until I purchased my first yoke

A buddy and I actually went hunting for natural stones one day and would run them back to my truck. Fun to not only guess the weight but the different shapes and sizes really made you have to think on how to properly get them up

This is a fun DIY, a bit of labor involved but it’s nice to see the stones fresh out of the mold. I’ve made a few stones from 220 -340lbs. If you want stones I recommend you do this

This is a fun lift to do when you have a bunch of people around and you want to test everyone’s might !! It’s funny how some people will shock you with how well they are at this lift

Had a few pairs of these when I first started my gym, pretty decent plates and can get done what you need

You get what you need out of them and are fun to mess around with. Would work really well with a dedicated station set up for them

These things are awesome. These were a gift so I can’t mention how they are price wise but they’ve performed well and the magnets on them work amazing
