These stump straps have re-earned a spot in my gym. They came with my Spud Inc. pulley system and I never used them but kept them around. I found them again while reorganizing. I almost exclusively use them with the bamboo bar on days when I’m feeling beat up. I don’t really use them for anything else, so they sat in a drawer forever. No idea how much they cost outside of the pulley system, But they’re definitely useful for this one specific thing.
In a world where everyone argues over aluminum or plastic pulleys, this plastic pulley allows for a high point change of direction for my triceps extensions. It works great, and in spud inc fashion, a little more sturdy than the DIY pulley it replaced
This bar is solid overall. The camber is good and the sleeves are nice and smooth. Minus one star for build quality as the knurling isn’t the best. It’s pretty passive and could use more bite.
Mine is just an old air tight dog food bin. The seal keeps the moisture out, which is huge in the Midwest where humidity can turn chalk into clumps pretty quick
I built the Kaizen DIY toaster rack from his YouTube video. It’s simple and effective. It keeps my plates organized and fits perfectly in an otherwise random section of my gym. Solid for what it is and customizable to fit your plates exactly.
