[QUOTE=sribond;1650687293]Wow. they look cool.
Any idea if it fits speciality/swiss bar or fits ONLy standard 2" bars?[/QUOTE]
Unless a collar is specifically marketed to work for specialty bar, it's generally safe to assume it won't. Screw down collars like Proloc usually do. The Eleikos will not.

[QUOTE=gym62richard;1650460933]I'm not looking for any further additions to my set up. The Pandemic allowed me to shift out everything that was surplus to requirement for a decent price, I was also able to take advantage of some very favourable deals on new commercial equipment, I particularly got a great deal from Panatta and was able to bring some of my dream machines into the gym.
I'm now actually done, after 22 years of trading equipment I can honestly say I can't think of. a single item I'd want to change, so for the first time in many years I'm not looking for a holiday bargain, kinda strange, but I really am content with my set up.[/QUOTE]
Sweet. Would love to see the new additions and setup now. Is it in the gym threads or can you post a pic?
I'm in the same boat. Now that I swapped out the GHD for an Inspire FTX (planning that for a few years) I'm pretty good and also out of space so given the space, there's nothing I'd swap nor upgrade. I could do a few things on bars and maybe those cool new Eleiko collars but meh - I'm 100% with what I have and just going to train hard on it this holiday season. Planning to keep my diet in line and lean up vs last holiday's unrestricted food and lifting fest. I didn't realize it was happening but a few days after Christmas I couldn't pull up dress pants over my thighs and outgrew my casual golf shirts. Got on the scale and was mid-270s. I try to keep my weight max at 250 and really trying to be lean and low 230s.

Rogue is really pushing the boundaries on the theory that they can add the Rogue name to anything and charge 2-10x as much as everyone else. So far though, they haven't been wrong.

OMG. I thought you were joking. A $200 fricking pan. Not even All-Clad copper is there. Officially jumped the shark but #crossfit I guess will do anything for it. And I say this as someone who has A LOT of Rogue stuff in my gym.

I have been thinking about some kind of "shoulder saver" bar or maybe the thing you snap on the bar to make it act sort of like a board press.

I often go to Panatta website for a bit of window shopping.
Easy method is to select ALL the machines, and I do covet ALL of them, but the real challenge is to select fewest Panatta machines for a rounded home bodybuilding gym. ;)
With the availability and prices still (and perhaps forever) messed up, I'm now focused only on stuff that would be "game changers". No minor upgrades, lateral moves in quality etc. for me.
If I could find it, I'd get a commercial grade treadmill.
Turns out I haven't ran a single step in six years, and I'm noticing some deficiencies due to that.

That's a big pan! I like the double handles and the smooth finish but thirty pounds is heavy. And the price? If I were buying CI I would lean towards Butter Pat cast iron. Comparable size Butter Pat is much more expensive.
My xmas list this year is same as the last two years. An Eleiko XF bar.
-
I landed up getting a 4 grip diameter loadable row handle with the 10% discount code from BWTG with free shipping...hopefully it's a worthy piece.
-
No room for more large pieces in my current gym. If there was a floor space I'd like a leg press and a leg extension / curl combo. Sold the heavy bag & gloves recently. Honestly I have pretty much everything I need at this point. If the price wasn't so ridiculous I might consider a Duffalo bar, but for something so niche it just doesn't really feel worth it.
-
Stuff I’m actually going to buy?
Maybe some stronger bands, definitely need new gym shoes…
My list of the stuff the gym would by is considerably longer ;) but I’d be happy with at very least a rackable trap bar.

Have a Powertec Leverage squat and Concept2 BikeErg coming in this week.
Out of money & room for now.

There is a cast iron market that's more expensive then the standard Lodge brand stuff most people think of. I think you're paying for a highly polished/smooth pan bottom. They say cast iron pans last forever if treated right, so $200 may not be totally insane and just Rogue marketing fluff.

A few weeks back I got my girl the Powerblock Sport EXP Stage 1 5-50 lb set (learned from the previous Pro EXP purchase with the urethane connection point issue, although haven't had any trouble with them to date).
While I was at it, I also got the column stand until I seen on PB's site of the Black Friday promo code for 10% off and the restocking of the home rack stand (which I personally own and wanted to get for her originally the first time), so I bought the home rack stand and returned the column stand at the fitness equipment dealer in my area in exchange for the Sport EXP Stage 2 50-70 lb set and a promotional $10 off of them...needless to say she'll be thrilled to get those on Christmas day.

Congrats on the leverage squat, curious to hear how you like it and which leg movements feel comfortable on it...looks like a great way to do lunges and not have to take a stride back and forth free weight style in a tight space.
I also heard some people tried hack squats in it standing the opposite way (not sure how ideal and safe that is though).

well I'm itching to find out- unfortunately its been sitting at the freight company for a week a few towns from me. Seems the trailer only unloaded yesterday. Process is very slow with the freight company Powertec decided to use.

I haven't seen it on sale, so very rarely if it does. The chrome bar was only $10 off when I checked and I decided to wait and get it another time. I'm short on bar storage space but not short on other ways to do curls.

Thanks. on spread

I'm asking for the Titan seated stationary bench. Been wanting a short back utility bench for a while. Also asking for some Lock-Jaw Pro 2 collars and a 5' Olympic bar. Just going to go with a CAP bar from Amazon.
-
I placed the order with Titan Fitness for the seated stationary bench, 5' Olympic Bar, and their olympic hex weight bar (I don't know why they don't just call this a trap bar?). They all should be here on Monday. My first time ordering anything from Titan.

Curious about the need for a 5' bar - mind if I ask the usage?

[QUOTE=dragon360;1652254763]Curious about the need for a 5' bar - mind if I ask the usage?[/QUOTE]
I use mine for spider curls, seated curls, wrist curls etc.

[QUOTE=dragon360;1652254763]Curious about the need for a 5' bar - mind if I ask the usage?[/QUOTE]
I plan on using it for regular curls, preacher curls, wrist curls, kind of like grumpytude.
I've just always wanted one. I don't have an actual rack that a barbell stays in. If I want to do any barbell work I need to put j-hooks on the front of my IM2000. This will work better in the smaller bit of open space I have. Purely a vanity purchase. I also didn't get a rackable trap bar for the same reason, the one I'm getting I believe is between 4 and 5 feet wide.
