Been lifting again for a year after taking 15 years off. I have had a home gym in some sorts since 2003. Started with a DP bench and weights, moved to a Total Gym, then Weider Crossbow and graduated to a Marcy MP-3100. In 2025, I updated to a Megastar P107 and now have a Dane 2.0. I am on Hevy with profile cskalmo

I purchased these as part of my Dane 2.0 rack package. I got to use the rack with the regular trolleys for a few months before receiving the Gibbon Arms. Overall I think they are a benefit. They help put the cables in good position for many exercises. I mostly enjoy the extra height that they provide for lat pulldowns. The big drawback is any cable exercise that needs to be done close to the rack. Seated rows became very difficult to get full ROM with the Gibbon Arms. I have fixed this by purchasing the single Sidewing Pulley from Fringe.

I bought these for reverse flys as I love that exercise. I was using the rubber stoppers on the cable system but with the snap shackles attached it was not comfortable. These are solid grips and built well. My only complaint is that they can get a tad bit slick to hold on to with sweaty hands. On later sets I have to stop and regrip as they feel like they are slipping out of my hand.

These were my first set of barbell collars. They work well for easily changing weight plates. The only drawback is that the ones I have do not have magnets in them. If I purchase another set, I will get the ones with magnets in them.

Purchased for my Dane 2.0 to prevent cables from getting twisted. I have used them for a month and enjoy them better than the traditional carabiner. It makes switching out attachments much quicker and easier. Would highly recommend to anyone who is switching out attachments frequently or has a system with cable twisting issues.

A co-worker recommended these to me when I was battling golfer's elbow. I used it for several months and the pain went away. Now I am dealing with tennis elbow and have utilized it again to help with recovery. If you have elbow issues, I would highly recommend this product to help you recover.
