A quality bar that came out before they released the platinum series. Let’s call it what it is, a damn sturdy 32mm squat bar converted for bench purposes. Great branding, but a super solid bar. I used on stage at the Arnold classic in 2024 and it didn’t budge with 1K on bar. A solid buy new and if you can pick up used jump on it

The Cadillac of log press - we got to use at Slayers Hardware in Lancaster (but spray paint and play with strongman implements? Yeah!!). Also have used briefly in rogue. They are the best implements, but also pretty much say “I’m not playing” to anyone who enters a space. When you see them, you know people are there to get stronger!

Same as any other hex set except branding and name. I suggest a matte Black Friday buy, secondary market, or if local to Ohio hit the garage sale when you can and pray for the best

This will be an add to our space after trying at Rogue. Angle is right. Pivot is right. Knurling on point.

Likely the most overbuilt calf raise on planet earth, but it hits the right angles and is bully proof. If I saw one used, I’d snatch up. More than willing to use on visits when I see available

A big platform for a solo move that is an accessory build often done with a solo dumbbell. The machine itself is nice, though I think it afford a little more adjustability. It’s not a “must use” when I visit other gyms but will get throw in occasionally

Another fantastic accessory machine for the repertoire, and this is a nice overload. Bar angle is right but I need a little contortion to get seated.

It’s a fantastic piece and a great burner. A different feel than cable work, or what you can achieve with free weights. My usual “go-to” is high rep, low weight, end of workout burn outs on it. Great change of pace when I can use one
