On paper, it doesn't sound too bad. Currently if you already have a gym, you can get certified as a SS Gym. Having been to a few in the southeast, I can say that those at least are doing very well. I...
As long as you maintain the bar, oxidization isn't that big of a deal. I'm probably not alone in thinking an oxidized bar (not rusty) has a certain weathered aesthetic which looks better than a shiny...
Year after year, Westside Barbell beats the sh!t out of a rack that's similar to the EliteFTS 2x2 and it puts up with it all. I don't think you'll regret an EliteFTS 3x3 Scholastic.

When I was microloading overhead presses, I just bought some cheap ankle/wrist weights that came in 1lb and 1.5lb pairs. This was years ago, but I remember they didn't cost more than $15 or so from...
That's funny, I was just asking about Safe shoes the other day when a "Safe" branded rack and bench were bought and posted here. The current low-top Titan version of this shoe is very sturdy and...
I only ever used that bench as a dedicated flat bench that stayed in the same model York STS rack as in the picture. For that purpose, it was very good and regularly saw use by an equipped...
Did your gym have the chain adjustment version? I was impressed that it could be lowered and used for benching out of the mono hooks. There was talk about a docking bench so it could be used in...

This is a weird oversight considering how meticulously designed Duffin's old monolifts were. You can tell he really thought out the design of the hooks and everything else. They were called the...
