This thing just WORKS. Listen, I'm not the strongest or biggest guy in the world, but doing ab rollers has given me an extremely strong core. If you do these routinely you're going to get results. This is comfortable and rolls smoothly and is a fair price. Function? Check. Price? Fair. Quality? Does exactly what it says it will. Lots of options here and this is a good one.

It's...fine. I bought this thinking "woah husafell is so cool. I'll train using this a ton." And you know what? It sucks and it's kind of awkward. I like the hand holds, but the interior just kind of lets weight slosh around. The steel isn't going to break or warp on you anytime soon so feel free to go nuts. It's just one of those "nice to haves" but isn't really necessary. Even if you're a strongman it's going to be a piece of equipment that you buy, use a couple of times, and then let collect dust in the corner.

Can't go wrong for the price here. I absolutely love these and they make me really enjoy doing pulldowns. The sheer variety of angles you can attack your back with these is great and the feel in-hand is terrific. No issues involving grip and can just focus on the squeeze. Would highly recommend as a discount alternative to the pricey name brand versions.

These were way bigger and more substantial than I expected when I ordered online. Compared to others, they are inexpensive but in the grand scheme of things, it's still pricey for foam padding. That being said, they do their job extremely well and I would highly recommend them for those who use logs, etc. and don't want to worry about damaging their floors. Zero issues with mine and would highly recommend. Padding is stiff and the vinyl is surprisingly good quality.

The biggest problem with this is it doesn't fit nearly the variety of dumbbells that it claims to. Sometimes you have to force the clamp in order to get it to shut depending on what you are doing. Also the weight distribution isn't the same as a kettlebell. However, it's still a nice substitute for certain exercises like windmills or goblet squats. The plastic is pretty cheap for the price point and I wish there were some better grips. Overall if you're looking to just include some kettlebell movements and don't want to get a set this is a good option, but it's not going to be a substitute for the genuine articles.

Really underrated piece of gym equipment that can do a ton of stuff thanks to its mobility. This is a more affordable alternative to rack mounted options and can provide welcome support for split squats. The height is adjustable and the pad quality is surprisingly good. Wouldn't recommend using it as a back pad for hip thrusts, but I think you could get creative and find a fair amount of utility here. I really like this option compared to a bench when doing split squats and it was super affordable.

I held off on getting one of these for the longest time. I had seen some guys bring them to commercial gyms in the past but never thought I had a need. Then it got programmed in my training so I decided to pick one up and WOW what a fun product. It really helps lift super-maximal loads and get comfortable feeling max loads in hand. Really an inexpensive and valuable tool to add to your arsenal. Would highly recommend. I'd give this a perfect score but there is some fraying that's already starting to develop at the shoulder point.

Got these when I simply didn't have room in my basement for a leg extension leg curl machine. They do an OK job at leg extensions but can be a bit awkward to get in and out of. The rubber fell off mine and the latch mechanism can be uncomfortable. They aren't a viable option for leg curls. So if you are desperate for isolated leg extensions these may be worthwhile but honestly you're better off saving your money until you either have the space or resources to get a proper leg extension/leg curl machine.
