So my boss gave me a $275 gift card to the local sporting goods store..wondering what I should get...here's what Ihave so far:
Powertec Rack
BodyCraft F320 FID Bench
Olympic Bar
800 lbs Plates
Olympic Dumbbells
I was thinking of possibly an EZ-Curl Bar, but that would still leave me with about $200 left...any suggestions on how to blow it?

Shrug bar and how about a 5 foot olympic bar when doing exercises that are done outside the rack (deadlifts, military press, rows, sldl)
Sure your saying Militray press? Are you nuts? I can do them inside my rack! Yeah that's bs right there I'm 5'10 and can't do military presses inside my power rack...bar hits the rack...you can't get a complete lift

Add a bit and get a free-standing lat machine. IMO that is

If you don't have any discomfort doing curls with a barbell then an EZ curl bar is a waste. If they have shrug bars there then that's a great option. If not, use the $275 on something non-weight related, like shoes, a bike, clothing, etc.

Thanks for the ideas guys...I'll let you know what I decide on once I have a look-see to see what they carry.
