Judging by the reviews to date, this attachment seems to be very polarizing. I plead "guilty" to the side that likes it. It should be noted that some of the complaints (e.g. that the end is not capped) does not apply to the version I have. I bought my thick-handled version years ago, and thought it was version 1 Titan - which can be a dangerous thing! - but perhaps it was a later version. In any case, in my version the end is capped and the barbell rests securely inside the attachment. There is a tightening screw, but I find it to be useless, and don't bother with it. I haven't noticed any decrease in performance. Now, there was a time when I didn't like the attachment as much as I do today. I had difficulty setting it up to do "viking presses" with it. What made the difference is the advent of rack-mounted landmine attachment. I have one set up at the right height for viking presses, and use a spare j-cup on the other side to rack/un-rack. Thus having a dedicated viking press setup has made using the attachment much more inviting, and useful. As for the attachment itself, its build quality is tough and can take a beating, but it doesn't have the fine touches of, say, BWTG's excellent powder-coated version - which Titan's version suspiciously resembles (but that's a topic for another time!). The thing weighs a hefty 17 lbs and is constructed of 11-gauge steel tubings (if you trust Titan's specs). Value-wise, I recall paying 50-something (plus free shipping) for mine, but it seems inflation has reared its ugly head here. Still, Titan always seem to run sales like the proverbial mattress store, and this item remains competitive. How well it performs depends, in my view, on how good one's set up is. In the past, I would have given it lower ratings, but now the all-important "strength curve" seems dialed in, and the thick handles feel great against my mid-sized hands.

Over the years, I've owned many push up handles and these are one of the best. The thick wooden handles feel great in the hands and reduce pressure on the palms, as compared to the thinner, foam-covered handles. The bottom of the handles feature a slip resistant rubber surface, which make them usable on a variety of settings. For example, I've used them on both marble and wooden floors and they function well on both. There are two options for the handle styles, wooden and plastic, and I'm glad I chose the wooden. In my opinion, the plastic ones look cheaper by comparison, and, in any case, my review only pertains to the wooden version.

If you don't mind the cage design and want a pair of adjustable dumbbells that'll last, PowerBlocks is a good option. They are often available secondhand on Facebook Marketplace, which is how I acquired mine ($200 for the dumbbells + stand). My pair is the classic, all-metal design without any urethane. It functions like new and the only thing that looks aged is the color coded bars on the side, which have faded somewhat over the years. Although I have a set of fixed dumbbells (up to 65 lbs at present), it is nice to have an adjustable pair - in case I have a visitor to my gym. I'm docking a star for build quality because I'd rather have a straight knurled handle, rather than the bumpy "ergonomic" rubber handle.

These monolift arms are spring-loaded rather than using the counter-weight system more common among monolift attachments. As such, they take up a smaller footprint. I have a custom fabricated rack that is too shallow for Titan's monolift arms, for example, but these fit comfortably inside. There is a catch to using the spring-loaded version, however. Until the weights get heavy enough for the springs to fully uncoil (around 135 lbs or so), you'll have to apply downward pressure into the arms to extend them fully to get the "snap back" effect upon unracking. Once this point is kept in mind, the monolift works great. Now I can bench inside my rack and unrack heavy weight by myself without aggravating my old-man shoulders! Perhaps my biggest complaint about its build quality is that there is no way to lock it in securely to your rack (e.g. via hitch pin). Only thing holding it in place is the weight of the attachment, combined with the load on its arms. Also, the back side of the attachment, the side that anchors it to the rack, only extends about 2/3 of the way across the 3 inch tubing (see attached pic). The attachment is advertised as being for a 3" x 3" rack, but it seems better suited for the odd 3" x 2" rack. Maybe these are issues they can address in future versions of this monolift attachment? (This, combined with the previous point, made me wary enough that I secured the attachment using Gorilla tape, which is not a problem for me because I don't plan on removing the attachment once it's set up.)

A favorite among climbers, these rock rings offer new stimulus during pull ups. You can grab the top for open palm work, and it has pockets for four, three, and two (or one) fingers. The synthetic material they're made of offer good traction and take chalk well. They can chip, though, so be sure you avoid banging them into other equipment, especially ones made of metal. It has holes for mounting on a wall, but I like to use them free hanging.

Like all Spud Inc straps, these are built to last. I used to use them for farmer's walk, but ran into the issue of the plates swinging laterally during usage, bumping into my outer calves. For its price point, I think a mini farmer's handles would be a better option.

This is a sleeper pick among budget collars. It has a nob that allows you to adjust the tension level, making it suitable for specialty bars as well.

Got this intending to train grip via pull ups and pulldowns with it. I found it to be better for tricep cable pushdowns. The big balls just feel good against my palms. 😆
