Really love this piece for what it is. The wife and I were able to spend some time with Pete at HGC, and apart from the quality of this piece, his knowledge, passion, and enthusiasm for it sold us on the spot! It works REALLY well for targeting all the muscles around the groin and hips, and we find it particularly useful as a warmup for wide squats and sumo pulls, never mind how well it torches the actual glutes themselves. Very maneuverable, and easy to store, especially if you don't have the upright portion (could literally store under the bed in that case). You'll love it for developing all the lesser muscles that need attention for squats and pulls, the Mrs. will love it for the glute development, which means the whole family wins on it!

Are you a father? Do you have a grip?? Well brother, these guys have the perfect forearm training tool for you!! No but motherhood and grip vs forearm targeting not withstanding, this really is a slick product that will leave your forearms completely ablaze. The simplicity of this product is it's charm, and as I told them at Home Gym Con, "it's almost like the upside down ketchup bottle, it makes you wonder why this hasn't always existed from the start of things". It doesn't require much weight to be challenging, it takes up minimal room, it's effective as all get out, and is reasonably priced. Would buy again in a heartbeat.

Instead of giving the same review on this bar you've already read 400x prior to this one, which are all true, I'm going to offer a different approach here as to why this is the obligatory SSB for nearly all scenarios: If you're a powerlifter, especially equipped, and especially if you train conjugate, then it's my belief that you quite literally owe it to Dave Tate to buy this bar, because it's also my belief that no one, and I do mean no one, has put out more, high-quality information concerning the aforementioned topics than he, and it's not even close. Granted, it helps that this bar is genuinely the best SSB ever, and I come from an era where we had some super crappy designs floating around out there. Ours, as you can see, is beyond war-torn and battle-scarred, and yet there's not a thing wrong with it. Its a first production run bar from I believe 2013-ish, has had 4 digits loaded on it repeatedly, has lived most of it's life in a mono (which is harder on bars), and has lived it's last 6 years in a SETX garage gym exposed to horrendous humidity, and yet it soldiers onward without so much as a hiccup. Stop thinking about it, pay your owed dues to Dave, and buy this bar. Now.

Perfect for beginners and MUCH easier to take than their 3" Muscle Mace. We like to attach bands or chains to ours for easier retrieval, especially from those bashful rookies! The steel construction is a bit cold, but again is much easier to clean than similar silicone products, and we do recommend you warm it with your breath first before use. More advanced users can attach weight/chains/bands to this and still maintain a firm grasp of it, but it's about all I can do to even accept it in the first place. Great product though, and serves exactly what it's obviously made for nicely.

This is a tough one to take, especially over Elitefts' beginner 3" Grenade Ball. It's a bit colder than silicon products but cleanup is FAR easier. We've not yet worked up to the third ball yet but as you can see from the pic, ours gets used often, and has left us satisfied each time, if not a bit sore!
