This one definitely checks all of the boxes for me. The price is not bad for the utility and even though I may want more than 6 bars total at some point it was a necessity for the new home gym. Mounted into concrete and had to use parawedges to feel confident on how much weight it was going to hold but it’s solid. Only little complaint is that the uhmw is held on with these little star screws and they can get loose and with it being star head I have the screwdriver but it’s not the most accessible type for something like this.

When it comes to storage items for the gym the most important thing to me is navigating price and the foot print that it will take from the gym. It serves it purpose well and I honestly should get another one soon.

So just like all old plates from back in the day these will definitely get the job done. I came into ownership of a full set of these from my cousin that was cleaning out a shed for a friend of his and I couldn’t pass them up. I don’t think they are too rare to be honest but I do like the aesthetic and history it adds to my gym.

This is a true representation of when we used to be a proper country. This thing is beefy and dense not like the plastic husks they make today. The fly wheel feels so smooth and has a really nice turn dial for the resistance. I did modify mine by getting pedal adapters for cycling shoes and I also changed out the seat post and saddle so it’s kind of a Frankenstein bike now. However the quality of it as a whole really stands the test of time.

These are pretty high quality tall Parallettes that serve a lot of purposes in the calisthenics space. You can do deep pushups, L sit and planche work handstands stuff it’s endless how versatile these are as a piece of equipment. My only gripe with them is they will loosen over time and you need to use an Allen key to tighten them but other than that very solid stuff
