It’s a pretty good tool to stretching and doing roll outs with. It doubles as a seat when you’re feeling lazy. The plastic doesn’t fair well in the cold weather, but that’s not really it’s fault

Do you want to train your pinch grip and want to feel inferior? Then look no further, with an online lead card you can see how weak your grip actually is. Even Brian Shaw can’t hold the record (for two hands atleast)

It comes with a tiny box for box squats tucked away inside like a matryoshka. Getting it out is a bit of an ordeal, you’ll need a few stout men to get it out. Once it’s out leave it strap side facing you. It’s a great box for step ups, jumps, split squats or anything you need a box for. The corners of the material do wear out fairly quick so make sure it doesn’t go outside without being on a horstel mat.

It’s a handy little unit to have around. Not only will it hold a crispy boy or a piping hot Lacroix it also holds a phone, bottle of ammonia or barbell rescue brush. Since it harnesses the power of magnets to stick to anything ferric, the uses are litterally endless.

For a little more than a normal cross member the pull-up bar is an excellent use of space. It only fits in the widest rack BOS sells, but it offers four grips attached to an axle width bar on one side and a small bar on the other. The welds aren’t great but I haven’t broken it yet.

The lighter weights aren’t great by themselves, they warp under the weight of the bar. They are ok for axle technique work. The wider ones are completely fine. They do wear quite well when dropped.

You never know what you can find used on the internet, be it FBMP or some other site. You can usually get good deals from gyms closing down or people that hurt themselves and are getting out of the sport. This custom 12” Valkyrie log weights 110lbs and was only a five hour drive away.

They fit on both standard and specialty bars. The only downside is they don’t hold very well if they are dropped like from an axle press or oly lift. They’re pretty pricey, but the time you save not having to take them off to load plates makes up for it.
