Given the increased demand for home gym equipment, seems like a good idea to post a deal thread for those looking to setup home operations. I've seen lately that even places like Rogue are shutting down their onsite stores and doing pickup or shipping only. So let's see what deals y'all can find!
Ethos Olympic Bench @ $149 on flash sale again, *local pickup if you have one nearby.

Not a deal.... but maybe time for some to go with anti-bacterial cable attachments..... I never did because my gym membership (of 1) is good at wiping stuff down.....

Sure, if there happens to be any particular bacteria you’re worried about those fancy antibacterial copper handles killing. Most people are more frightened about a virus at the moment, though...My home gym: https://forum.bodybuilding.com/showthread.php?t=175136471&p=1623181551&viewfull=1#post1623181551

I think the deals would be after the pandemic dies down and people start selling their equipment...

Let me know if you spot any deals on .223 ammo, hand sanitizer, or toilet paper. Really, just the ammo...

Pffft, 223 ammo is a waste of time. Haven't you bought a Rock Island VR80 shotgun yet? Shotgun ammo always seems to be plentiful

Never seems to be available in my area when they have the flash sale. Not that I need it or anything, but I probably would have bought it anyway.Originally Posted by urbanlifter

Don't worry, wasn't available in my area either or I would probably own one on principle. Shipping is outrageous, maybe it was just a teaser hoping everyone would think the shipped price was still decent.Originally Posted by lemieux66c

It's on my list, but I count myself lucky that the wife was cool with an AR15. Snuck in a 9mm carbine too. She'll take some convincing to add a shotgun to the arsenal. I live in Seattle and can't afford a divorce.Originally Posted by urbanlifter

I should probably review my Ethos bench before they run out of them to flash sale.

A 9mm carbine in the safe before a shotgun?Originally Posted by radrd
I haven't paid much attention to new guns for 5+ years. That VR80 looks interesting. I have a few RIA 1911s, never tried their long guns.

At the time, my only reason to own a shotgun was if someone breaks in, but having it by the bed was a no-go. 9mm pistol is by the bed and carbine is for cheap shooting fun. Now I see the error of my ways because potential looters would be easier to hold off with a shotty. AR15 or carbine will do fine, but shotgun would be better in a lot of scenarios. Hope I make it.Originally Posted by murphyreedus

Pretty much why I got mine, wanted something a little more practical for home defense and when I saw the AR platform shotgun I was sold instantly.Originally Posted by radrd

FYI, more and more states are shutting down all businesses as of today, and many equipment stores can't ship and are shut down indefinitely. Adamant Barbell might not reopen again.

Great little hyper, had one of these on the cheap and it was decent. Folds up nicely too.

Nice deals but note that the Stamina Hyper doesn't have a split pad so it's not very guy friendly. Your junk might get a little smashed.Originally Posted by urbanlifter

Dave, that's a shame if that were to happen, I always liked ordering from Adamant Barbell on and off over the years and had gotten some decent deals on new plates and items from there in contrast from other dealers selling new.Originally Posted by Squeebo
I hope all goes back to normal in the world soon.

Thanks! Things were going well, with lots of happy customers with Troy plates and dumbbells especially, but I'm anticipating that things will be out of stock for months, or other issues. That's okay, my time is suddenly free to focus on more blog content on Two Rep Cave!Originally Posted by Deep-Voiced-One

Split pads are definitely nice, but for $69 shipped you could always go the towel route to protect the McNuggets! HahaOriginally Posted by radrd

Prices in the uk have gone insane as all gyms told to close. eBay has crap used plate sets currently at £3 a kilo with days to go. That’s about 4.5$ a kilo when 6 months ago you would have paid £1-1.50 tops.
All online suppliers uk have sold out of racks plates resistance bands you name it

My wife has a YMCA membership that she uses to go to random fitness classes once a blue moon, and sometimes the pool in the winter. When she ever asks me why I'm not using something I immediately ask her how much that YCMA membership costs monthly.Originally Posted by Rottweiler59

I know what you mean man with all this pandemic madness. There's a few slightly heavy duty but smaller pieces I'm in the process of selling and thinking of maybe delivering them depending on if it's a nearby distance, or just meeting half way somewhere in public to make the transaction(s), keep my distance and hand sanitizer ready for right after the cash transaction, take the item(s) off the truck, they take their items and I'll be on my way.Originally Posted by EricAtl

Is this the perfect time to sell home gym equipment? I'm seriously considering selling all my stuff to get new stuff.
Bodybuilding is a lifetime journey, anytime spent not bulking or cutting is a waste of time.
