I love this wrist roller The XA aggressiveness option on the knurling is perfect, no chalk needed I get this piece is a bit niche, but when combined with a voltra it’s better than any wrist roller machine I’ve used This thing is also amazingly built, with excellent quality

This is a well built machine The stack is adequate for nearly everyone (although the arm wrestler I sold mine to could stack it fairly easily!) I mostly used it for the wrist roller function, so I ended up selling it & replacing it with a JD wrist roller This is a good machine though & the seller now offers the option of getting a knurled handle for the supination/pronation function

Pros: The footprint is super small 300lb stack (pretty much impossible to max out for leg curls) Great ROM for leg curls Excellent resistance curve for both leg extensions and leg curls Belt fed & overbuilt/well built Cons: Okay ROM for leg extensions; some people may need to or want to use a husla pad It’s not 1 to 1 weight for the leg extensions, so if you’re squatting 550lbs+ you’ll likely need to use a gym pin. Anyone under a 500lb squat will likely find the stack more than adequate for leg extensions Overall this is an excellent combo machine & one of the best I’ve used. If you see one for a good price, buy it

I’m a huge fan of powerblocks They are quick to adjust, the square design doesn’t bother me for the exercises I use them for (mostly just arm accessory work and chest supported rows) They feel good during pressing movements The exercises that feel awful with them, like overhead tricep extensions, I’ve never really liked doing My wife also dropped these from head height, while doing OHP, and they survived

I originally just used these on my powerblocks, but now I use them to micro load on my machines They were a good purchase and I use them often!

It’s cheap and it does what it says it does You can get a nice tib pump with this Working my tibialis has helped with my shin splint issue

I love this squat bar. I have the fully stainless model & the knurl has held up, there’s no rust, and it feels great to squat with I prefer it over all the Texas squat bar models I also got lucky and got mine used for $200, which was nice!

Honestly I’m not a big fan of this cable attachment It’s okay for lateral raises if I’m wanting to do a lateral raise where I angle the raise as I go up It’s too unstable for heavy rows I feel it’d likely be great for cable chest flys, but that’s not a movement I train
