Running sucks! Not only because it’s running (to be fair I did run sprints in school) but it’s hard on your joints. So when age and injury put a stop to my (albeit limited) running for cardio, I picked up this gem of a cardio piece at launch. In short, it’s fantastic. The build, folding capability, quick release straps, and turf tires make this THE choice for a rower. Great cardio option and great on the joints!

Oh how I would love to give this a better review. However, 2 things seriously drag down the rating. Titan’s absolutely horrible packaging, which is the biggest negative, and the wheels. Titan’s packaging on so many of their items is beyond deplorable. This is an 80lb steel framed bench that is literally wrapped in a single layer of bubble wrap and then tossed loosely into a basic cardboard box. So of course it’s going to be banged about and try to escape. My first delivery was destroyed between Titan and FedEx (who beats the hell out of their packages alla Ace Ventura style) and the front foot never made it. The replacement bench barely made it as well. The only other complaint about the bench itself is the crappy wheel mounts (and upright supports), as there is a very small lean angle window where the bench isn’t dragging or the upright pads aren’t dragging. It is robust otherwise granted it survives shipping. The stupid thing on Titan’s part is that some items do actually have decent packaging. If they would only improve the packaging across their entire product line, their products (some of which are actually very good items) would be far better received in this space.

You have to take into account the intent and design of this to give it a fair review. This is meant to be a compact light portable cable option. In that space, this thing excels. It is very light and works extremely well as a cable option that requires no charge. It just works wherever you can strap or mount it onto. I bought this as a portable tool when traveling and it really exceeded my expectations. The cable action is incredibly responsive and there is plenty of length to get good ROM. With the Velcro strap or optional mounts (where you could screw them into a board that you could then ratchet strap to a larger object) you really could use this just about anywhere. The ease of adjustment and super portability of this thing makes it fantastic and I use it in addition to my functional trainer even in my home gym.

These work fine as spotters but they have one major flaw just like the Rogue version these clone. There is no UHMW on the mount to protect the finish on your rack. It’s metal on powder coat baby. If it wasn’t for that fact I’d score them higher. The fit and finish is fine. Nothing fancy but not cheap looking either.

If it can survive Titan’s poor packaging and FedEx’s handling, it performs decently. Mine arrived beat up but fortunately all parts were there. It supports weight just fine but the casters aren’t beefy enough to really roll around very well. The rollers are really just an option to move it to its final destination… preferably unloaded. It is compact so unlike some triangular designs, it doesn’t take up much space.

I purchased this bar primarily for overhead pressing. For that movement and standing skullcrushers it’s fine. The knurling provides plenty of grip and unlike some other options out there, I find the grip length (or space between the top/bottom bars) to be about perfect. Not too much space it’s awkward and not too little making it tight. If you can get it on a killer sale and a flat multi grip option is what you want, I think you’ll like it well enough. For more chest press and such I’d look at more cambered options.

These have been discontinued and a replacement option is in the works, so keep that in mind. I snagged mine after they initially launched for a crazy Christmas deal they had going. Functionality, love them! The all rubber coating, lifetime warranty, and customer service is great. Any search or review will point out some manufacturing issues and it isn’t every set or consistent within a given set. The cosmetic side of these are what’s been an issue. The rubber blooming (crap coloration) was rampant in mine and a lot of sets. It is only cosmetic and can be taken care of pretty well with the right rubber treatment, but it does take some work and who knows how long it lasts before you need to reapply. I know some have actual metal exposed where the rubber coating was very thin but I haven’t really noticed that on mine. If it wasn’t for the lifetime warranty I may have opted to return them but I do like them quite a bit and they work perfectly with Micro Gainz. There are some other very minor blemishes but overall I have been really happy with them. The rubber provides good grip though the knurling is a tad inconsistent, but chalk works very well with them if you’d like more grip.

When space savings and functionality meet fancy. I really like this Jack. It replaced a cheap Amazon one that did okay but this thing not only works fantastic but it’s extremely well done and stupid light weight. Who says a simple tool can’t look dang good lifting heavy weights?
