I have a meet in a little over a month. I hit 1124 a few months ago but in the 110 kg class. I want to stay leaner now and steadily increase my total and mass year to year. Right now I'm starting...

bar steel bar on the way today :)

I think most people would do well to get a bar like this, then one with more flex and no or lighter center knurl. In hindsight, my dl bar isn't needed

yeah. mine is completely bent after bailing about 250 lbs onto the safeties lol. Although crashing into the safeties isn't good for bars of course, the TPB I sold would've withstood that. I'd...

absolutely great design on the mono. Edge said an adjustable mono like that would be impossible because people put such heavy loads on them lol

I'd go with Rogue too or of course Mech6. I'm very happy with the Edge mono, but the customer communication and shipping time was horrible in my experience.

I like the use of UMHW but it doesn't extend enough along the hooks. When I rack a squat with my edge mono it's not on the hooks ever

I just use short bands. loop them around the shaft and then stand on the other ends of the band

I've been thinking about this. I'd need one that's easily adjustable between the bench and squat positions

edit:
Here's a good thread on the system. I like the idea with cotter pinned bolts. ...

if you're just looking for extra chest development, you don't need a bench at all IMO

DB floor press, flare out the elbows kind of like a guillotine press I hear works well
weighted pushups on a...

not 3x3 and no westside hole spacing tho

I need to smash my fingers on squats and get confused when setting up for bench

I have a BWTG bar in the same format as the first EFS bar shown. I would say pay attention to the knurl. A light knurl or coating IMO is ideal as you can use straps and chalk comfortably but not...

I did this slowly because at the time I thought subpar stuff would get me by. Now I just spend money on gym equipment without thinking

depends on the wraps really. Post up the wraps you bought. I wear sleeves or light wraps on all sets of squats.

I have competition wraps that are much much heavier, and will probably only go on...

peasant. The spin on the OBX 20 KG + Revolvers wasn't cutting it, so I upgraded to a full competition olympic set from Eleiko. Just for rollouts once a month of course

agreed. I'm gonna die sometime soon falling backwards on a squat :)

the black oxide is really rough on the CAP bar, so it really gives the best of both worlds. On front squats it won't make my neck bleed, while on low bar (I set up very low) it grips pretty...

this works well and doesn't come off too easily with chalk

nice rack man. Mine is almost exactly the same as yours and I use it every single day, a few times a day.

this bench is massive lol. I've got it with the fat pad on as well. The fat pad is hard to get set up on obviously but otherwise it's a great bench

same here, but not with 600 lbs :( The UMHW on mine are wearing down to the screws, but I'm not as concerned about scratches as I was before

I think ideal J-cups with UMHW that would be the...
