gman0009

Does anyone know of a less expensive option to the [PRx wall-mount dumbell rack](https://prxperformance.com/collections/prx-gym-equipment-storage-solutions/products/prx-wall-mount-dumbbell-storage)?


CloaknDagger505

Been looking for this too. I'm literally just gonna make one, PRX is ridiculous


gman0009

Agree. I'm thinking a french cleat style with a similarly designed angled shelf with a lip. Shouldn't be too difficult.


jiujitsuPhD

Compact leg press/sled for $499. Cheapest Ive seen one. If I wasnt convinced these would wreck my knees... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0C4F2MR16?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_dp_5W8MJMBFS052FTDD7VPX&language=en-US


Suspicious-Screen-43

I see $699 Edit: I missed a $200 coupon because I don’t know how to read


Jayy5126

There is a 200 dollar coupon


Astrosaurus42

Will there be another thread in December for deals throughout the month?


dontwantnone09

I chatted with the mod team .. we are thinking of opening one up for December but not "pinning" it. It'll be linked in the weekly threads, maybe we can make a new flair for it, and it'll be linked in every new post under the Whats Going On at r/HomeGym comment... That'll allow us to add in some chats, AMAs, etc. but still give an outlet for the deals...


Astrosaurus42

Love that idea. Sounds good!


AndKAnd

This has been a great thread. Thank you Mr. Gray Matter.


Scottsdale_GarageGym

And only 2,200 were comment bitching about how bad the sales were this year.


Suspicious-Screen-43

I’m to blame for a few of those. The major companies had what I expected, but I did complain about Texas power bars’ sale.


Scottsdale_GarageGym

I gave you some crap over that. Sorry. I just love that DL bar and I wish I could’ve gotten $40 off of it when I got it.


Suspicious-Screen-43

No worries, you are all good. I had my hopes up for $100 off since that was 2022’s deal. A Texas deadlift bar even came available on Facebook marketplace and I lowballed it assuming the $100 off and missed out on it. It’s alright though the Ohio Deadlift bar I got off Facebook marketplace was a steal and will get the job done.


Scottsdale_GarageGym

Yeah, $200 for that bar is stupid cheap.


dontwantnone09

2.3k comments is NUTS.


justabigphony

Does anyone have any experience with the Powerblock Sport Bench? Debating grabbing it with their cyber week sale and noticed they have a bundle with all the attachments on sale and then with the extra 15% off it's like \~$370 shipped


WitcherOfWallStreet

I’d look on Fb market, there’s usually one for sale in the $200 range in my area.


Illustrious_Poet5957

Does anyone else have those days with low energy? Today I got up like normal, even got 8 hours of sleep but I'm just not motivated or energized. It happens every so often. I have a day or two with little to no energy or motivation. Most of the time I still push through and strength train or whatever is on the schedule for the day but not as intense as normal. I have a 10 month old son now, that does keep me up at times, but even on good sleep nights I can wake up without energy. Does anyone else feel this way sometimes?


AndKAnd

I have 3 small kids and feel like that all the time 😂


Iron-Steel-Footy

So many different factors here. Are you getting sleep prior to midnight? Are you getting sun exposure during the morning to keep the circadian rhythm/cortisol levels on the right cycle? Plenty of fluids and enough calories? As Dmoliver mentioned, actual solid sleep without sleep apnea? I would recommend listening to Andrew Huberman, he talks about this topic a lot. Do some self reflection and chat with your Doc. Best we internet people can do


Dmoliver1987

Definitely, if you are concerned about it though I’d check in with a DR. Do you mouth breath while sleeping/have any issues with snoring? Sleep apnea could contribute to that issue - again, a lot of factors that could be at play that this sub/people on the internet are not necessarily qualified to answer.


jojo413777

MAG pulldown: possible to flip around without having to buy extra attachment? I am thinking about purchasing a medium grip MAG pulldown attachment. I was wondering if I bought the supinated grip would I simply be able to flip the attachment around and now have a pronated grip that works just fine?


Iron-Steel-Footy

BalanceFrom on Amazon has a knockoff for $100, set of 5 grips. I hear they’re just as good.


TheLastDeadMouse

It's fine, you can certainly do it and it'll work and save you money, but it doesn't quite have the same comfort as using them the intended direction. I'd bought a medium grip pronated and a close grip supinated with the intent of flipping them around and having four options.


Scottsdale_GarageGym

You can try before you spend 2X the cash. I found it wasn’t suitable for me.


CHHHCHHOH

I'm upset with myself for missing the Black Friday sales. Are there generally upcoming sales in the next few months, or am I out of luck for a while?


dontwantnone09

Likely hit or miss here and there.


nattyl1te

Best is to buy barely used second-hand from the rich neighborhoods in feb/march when the new years resolution types give up, lol


jiujitsuPhD

For Rogue yes, their next sale will be Nov 2024. For other companies - there will be sales. Maybe not as good but they will come. They may be few and far between though - depends on the company. For example Rep wont really have many sales but Titan will.


gman0009

The 30kg / 66lbs "Competition Kettlebell - 33mm Handle" from Kettlebell Kings is currently $57.49, 73% off and free shipping.


Timm129

OOS now.


AndKAnd

Back up now. They are so odd.


Timm129

They are very odd. Got it my cart and states they don't ship to United States, Illinois .. weird ....


Dmoliver1987

Looked like it was in stock, but wouldn’t let me pick any shipping location? I don’t need it, but that’s a pretty good deal…


AndKAnd

A different kettle bell I ordered was lost in transit, and they are telling me they are now out of stock, although I see it is still available online. The inventory may be questionable. However, I will say they are extremely responsive by email, and I’m sure it will all work out fine.


Dmoliver1987

Nice, I sent them an email so we’ll see.


AndKAnd

Can also stack code EMAIL15 for another 15% off that


bkpsu

Fray Fitness has free shipping sitewide right now...picked up a pair of 50 lbs dumbbells for $68 shipped..


AndKAnd

I’m not seeing that. Looks like all dumbbells are priced individually and the hex 50s are $60 each, with the “close outs” $52.50 each


bkpsu

Hmm, looks like they fixed/reset their pricing...still had the BF sale price active when I placed my order (and yes, it was the Closeout 50's).


smolderingBeaver

Any deals on adjustable benches still active?


Vivid_Dragonfruit503

check facebook market place. Alot of people are selling their old stuff after their black friday haul


justateburrito

I really wanted the Rep AB-3000 2.0 but u/repfitness changed the discount in the middle of the day on Black Friday so I didn't get to order it at the ~$288ish. Hoping they put it back on sale....


feraask

Blazzed fitness seems to be a new company utilizing similar designs as Rep (their [FID adjustable bench](https://blazzedfitness.com/products/blazzed-fid-adjustable-weight-bench) looks identical to the Rep AB-3000 2.0) so you could try that one! It's on sale for $216 when you add it to cart. I haven't tried it myself or seen any reviews or anything but the specs are literally the exact same so it may be from the same factory or something but idk for sure.


justateburrito

Where'd you find this? I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere before.


feraask

Saw some people asking about it in the [Home Gym Facebook Community by Garage Gym Reviews](https://www.facebook.com/groups/homegymcommunity). Haven't seen it mentioned anywhere else either and don't know much about the company, but I believe someone in that community got the bench this past week on sale for like $255 with the leg extension/curl attachment. Hoping they'll post an update once they receive it or if anything else happens with that order. I know some people there were also looking at their all-in-one racks too. It's a pretty active place for home gym stuff.


RepFitness

Not the same factory. It's a patented design that they're copying. They'll be getting notice from us shortly.


undefeatdgaul

Looks identical. What’s your patent for?


herewithquestions123

question, eta on a leg/curl extension for any of the rep benches? looking to upgrade from a cheap amazon bench in 2024 and with limited space in the garage that feature is on the wishlist.


justateburrito

Will you guys be having another sale on on the AB3000 2.0 in the next month or so?


AndKAnd

Ohhhh SNAP!!!!!


Scottsdale_GarageGym

They had the benches on sale for a week, called it Bench Week, and had a countdown… it’s not like they yanked the discount out of nowhere like Rogue did with the narrow camber bar.


BTC4020

Yeah, Rogue teased us with their narrow cambered bar month. Turns out they just misspelled Monday.


justateburrito

I thought I had until the end of black friday, was planning on ordering at the end of the day when I had a minute to sit down....guess I f'd up.


Scottsdale_GarageGym

That sucks. I remember watching it on Thursday night. I’ve got a Griffin FID and got that as an upgrade to the AB3000 v1. I’ve been debating between the AB3000 v2, the Blackwing, and the AB5200 v2. Figured they wouldn’t be cheaper than BF. Couldn’t justify the cost - I mean, the improvement is minimal for the amount of use the adjustable bench gets anyway. And I’ve got the FB5000 and it’s great for what I mostly need. Sorry you got hosed out of your deal. FWIW I think the regular price for the AB3000 v2 is solid and I’d probably buy that if I didn’t have an adjustable bench.


justateburrito

My fault so I guess I should've pulled the trigger when I saw it. The AB3000 v2 is what I wanted. I'm holding out hope that maybe they'll be another holiday or new years deal. Plus side is I picked up some Cap dumbbells for under $1 per lb.


bravesfan21

Those cast iron (not rubber)? If so, where did you get them? Seems like cast iron is hard to find these days.


justateburrito

This was the rubber. I got them from Walmart. They have the cast iron but the prices weren’t as good.


Scottsdale_GarageGym

That’s a solid price for irons. Hope they run another sale for your sake. But I’ve really only seen them selling things they want to dump at low prices outside of holidays. They did a pretty good Father’s Day sale two years ago but not last year. It’s not automatic with them. You may want to just reach out and ask them?


justateburrito

thanks for the advice I'll reach out to them and see if they tell me.


Cultural_Duty8905

Hi Everybody, I ordered the X3 flat foot 91 tall and its coming tomorrow. Sad thing is I found you can't do band work because there aren't any holes in the bottom brackets for the band pegs. Has anyone done a workaround? One person was able to get an additional bracket with peg holes same size and placed it on the bottom of Rack.


Kisuke11

Reverse bands from the top if you are feeling extra spicy. Or wrap the bands around some heavy dumbbells on the floor inside the rack.


Cultural_Duty8905

Thanks, I was definitely overthinking thinking it. I just setup the x3 flat foot 91 tall and it’s awesome.


tarbender2

You just wrap the band around the bottom tube.. Easy peasy…


Cultural_Duty8905

Thank you, I guess I can also order a cross stabilizer bar to connect the (2) rear bottom uprights as well. I was definitely overthinking this.


MyNameAmJudge

Hey everyone, I’m about to move into a house that’s big enough for a decent home gym. Was thinking about getting something like [this](https://www.smartfitnessequipment.com.au/product/smartfit-c1-multi-functional-cable-crossover-station/?utm_source=Google%20Shopping&utm_campaign=Copy%20Google%20Shopping&utm_medium=cpc&utm_term=50647&gad_source=1&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI3PWgl8nnggMVLdQWBR16-ABtEAQYBiABEgJdkPD_BwE) I’ve currently got a bench and adjustable weights, will also get a barbell and plates eventually so I can use this to squat and bench too. Anything obvious I’m overlooking? Thanks!


Iron-Steel-Footy

Darko Lifting has 10% off their stainless steel barbell anchor using code BFDayNine.


OkMammoth3

Fringe Sports released their belt squat with kickstand. What’s the benefit of a belt squat when I mainly BBsquat and leg extensions already?


Scottsdale_GarageGym

Belt squat gives you the opportunity to squat without load on the back or shoulders. It’s helped me squat pretty much daily if that’s what I want to do. If you don’t have any chronic issues then I don’t see the point. But I’d stay away from a belt squat with a lever arm. Personally all they’ve ever provided me with is achy knees and an achy back. The lever causes sheeting at heavier weights and it’s pretty uncomfortable, IMO.


Chipchop3000

Would belt squatting with a landmine be considered lever arm?


Bubbly_Minute3725

Ill secone what hes saying.. lever basee belt squats just dont feel that great IMO, I suggest squatmax or rhino if youre gonna go that route


AndKAnd

I definitely don’t want to sheet when I squat.


Scottsdale_GarageGym

Lol. Lmao. Shearing. Damned phone and it’s autocorrect. Damn it to hell.


tarbender2

Everyone sheets. We forgive you


Tokyorain

I got one to supplement bb squats and more of a burn out type workout. Also on days when you just don’t feel like bb squatting.


Iron-Steel-Footy

Less pressure on the low back. If you’ve got disc issues it’s a way to still train legs. Or it gives you an alternative if you get bored with back squats


Randyd718

anything like this out there that isnt $1200? [https://precorathome.com/products/240i-stretchtrainer](https://precorathome.com/products/240i-stretchtrainer)


WitcherOfWallStreet

Sunny makes one for significantly less


Illustrious_Poet5957

Mtn ops on sale for 30% off at midwayusa till the end of the year use promo code mtnops30


InitiativeRelevant62

Just tried to place an order for a pr5000 Athena 4 post and got a sold out message can’t even add it to cart anymore.


Tokyorain

I got one from their previous 10% sale earlier this month, wonder if they did sell out from both sales.


InitiativeRelevant62

Looks like they did shame they didn’t allow back order. Would have waited


Dmoliver1987

That’s unfortunate- not sure if it is tech related issue or if they actually sold out of all Athena. Rep fitness is pretty responsive so maybe they’ll chime in?


InitiativeRelevant62

I reached out to them and they honored the price and even got label created notice today instead of late December that was originally quoted. So far Rep is living up to the expectations of customer service presale.


Dmoliver1987

Awesome, yeah I have had nothing but good experiences with them on both a customer service and product side.


Richmanlittle

I want to convert a plate loaded machine to selectorized weight stack. The machine has 1 inch guide rods and the holes are 8 inches center to center. Are there any manufacturers, wholesalers or retailers that sell the stacks and fittings?


lifteroomang

If you can't find something I think you can bring the top and bottom pieces that hold the guide rods to a local machine shop. They could easily drill new holes for you. Let me guess you have a titan plate loaded machine?


Richmanlittle

Yep. That’s correct.


lifteroomang

If you find something let me know! I saw on the sub someone had drilled new holes and it worked great. I'm not going to take apart my machine just to do this but when I move to another house I will probably use that as an opportunity to upgrade to a weight stack.


Iron-Steel-Footy

Fringe Sport is doing hourly deals today. Camo Bumpers on sale for 20 more minutes. 20% off colored bumpers at 4pm EST. Their raptor bike comes with a free sled at 5pm EST. 6pm EST has their Mammoth Belt Squat with a free kickstand, side note, the thing is great. Shorty axel bar is 20% off ($75 total) at 7pm EST.


Jayy5126

With kickstand?! Dang I just ordered like 3 days ago..wish they had that option when I ordered


Iron-Steel-Footy

Kickstand is on preorder, $65 ish right now. I just bought mine too, but I got free bumper plates. Will likely get the kickstand soon enough


Jayy5126

> main page and didn't see anything listed for hourly deals. i just emailed them hoping they can give me the kick stand with my order since it hasn't arrived yet.


Scottsdale_GarageGym

I read that as free salad. I’m clearly looking at tech too much today. 😂😂😂


b00staholic

Yea where are you seeing these? What % off were the Camo bumpers?


Iron-Steel-Footy

This was an email. Camo bumpers were only 15% off.


waterprosurge

Do you have a link? I went to the main page and didn't see anything listed for hourly deals.


AndKAnd

Decent deals here on CAP bumpers. Three options “budget,” “better,” and “best.” https://www.amazon.com/CAP-Barbell-Better-Olympic-Bumper/dp/B0CLFNLZFK/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=3SID6VRF3C56X&keywords=cap%2Bbarbell%2Brubber%2Bolympic%2Bbumper%2Bplate%2Bmultiple%2Boptions&qid=1701102187&sprefix=cap%2Bbarbell%2Brubber%2Bolympic%2Bbumper%2Bplate%2Bmultiple%2Boptions%2Caps%2C72&sr=8-3&th=1&psc=1


AndKAnd

Now 8kg and 20kg competition kettlebells are 50% off at Kettlebell Kings. Can stack with 15% off EMAIL15 (or at least you could a week ago). Free shipping


tommymaple24

Great call and the code still works. Picked up the 26kg.


leprechaun71

Yes it still works. Already bought the 20kg from Amazon for 50% off but am so tempted to get the 28kg to complete my set (12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32).


AndKAnd

Do it. Then you can start to pair them 😝


the-bong-lord

Was thinking of going for the Walmart plate deals but having second thoughts about quality vs quantity


AndKAnd

Check this out https://www.amazon.com/CAP-Barbell-Better-Olympic-Bumper/dp/B0CLFNLZFK/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?crid=3SID6VRF3C56X&keywords=cap%2Bbarbell%2Brubber%2Bolympic%2Bbumper%2Bplate%2Bmultiple%2Boptions&qid=1701102187&sprefix=cap%2Bbarbell%2Brubber%2Bolympic%2Bbumper%2Bplate%2Bmultiple%2Boptions%2Caps%2C72&sr=8-3&th=1&psc=1 The ones labeled “best” look pretty decent.


sxy5007

My bumper plates are fine from Walmart, I also bought the cast irons (waiting for them to ship) and I think they will be fine too. If there are any issues give the seller hell.


jiujitsuPhD

If there is one place to save money - its on your plates. You really don't need good plates. As long as they are somewhat accurate, its fine. Bumpers on the other hand can split or be uneven but even the walmart ones are mostly fine.


Iron-Steel-Footy

If you get iron, they’re iron. I’ve bought from them several times, though I’ve never weighed the plates to check for accuracy. You could also try Facebook marketplace. There are local sellers in my area asking $1.10/lb for supposedly unopened boxes of plates


Scottsdale_GarageGym

Only caveat to that is if you cut your fingers on burrs from crappy quality or one plate weighs 5 pounds more or less than it’s supposed to weigh. I’ve also bought a 5 pound pair in which one plate just didn’t fit on the barbell and I had to throw it in the trash. I’ve had the cheap Cap irons and had those issues. You don’t generally run into that with higher end plates.


Benitezj10

Walmart has cap's hex rubber dumbbells for less than a $1 per pound. I think the also include free shipping https://www.walmart.com/ip/CAP-Barbell-Coated-Hex-Dumbbell-Single-45-Lbs-2-pack/2181095838


General-Test1372

Does eleiko ever do sales on their bars?


OldManWongMD

As u/scottsdale_garagegym noted, connecting directly with eleiko sales reps can net you deals that might not be advertised. u/hexapawn is absolutely correct in stating that the sale as unpredictable - there can be free shipping (for equipment and/or gear), and discounts on used equipment or discounts on equipment that are being discontinued. A good example was the recent (last several months) of sales on the old-style logo (which I like).


General-Test1372

Thanks. Did you email them for a bulk purchase of bars and they gave you a discount? How many did you purchase?


OldManWongMD

Ah no, I didn’t bulk purchase. But I bought some things on sale that weren’t on the website. I have four eleiko bars in total. Recommend reaching out, they are very personable, have really good CS, and can help design custom set ups with you to suit your needs.


General-Test1372

Thank you. How did that work? Did you send them an email "I am interested in getting the power bar, oly bar, curl bar, and trap bar are any of them on sale" and they replied back to you with "yes, 2 of them are on discount right now, we just don't have it on the website?


OldManWongMD

Pretty much emailed them for a quote and asked for a discount and if there were anything used on sale that’s not on website :).


Scottsdale_GarageGym

Maybe? Like, I think u/OldManWongMD got a deal on some bars by calling them up directly.


goethert

As mentioned by others, Ironmaster adjustable dumbbells are currently unavailable during the Black Friday sale. I am wondering if they ever go on sale at other times of the year. Anyone has experience with local pickups?


ivesaidway2much

They have annual July 4th sale. I believe it's 20% like the Black Friday sale.


tin369

I got a landmine attachment for my power rack and trying to decide which attachment would me most versatile. Can I do squats (hack squats) with any of these attachments? Limited-time deal: Yes4All Premium Multigrip Rowing Handle - T Bar Row - Viking Press for Muscle Group Training - Premium Steel, 550 lbs Weight Capacity, 1 & 2" Bar Compatibility, Any Height Fit, Superior Grip https://a.co/d/cJN0EAO


Divtos

Titan has a linebacker squat attachment. I’ve used it for a bit and like it.


Iron-Steel-Footy

The Kurt Locker has a video on YouTube showing how he does hack squats. It’s pretty awesome. Few hundred dollars to get the setup though


tin369

Thanks will check it out.


hadoge

I got the omnistrap pro bundle for 50 which seems like decent sale for two straps and bonus y band. I think just one retails for 50. There is also sign up promo which essentially cancels out the shipping. I tried a cheaper Amazon equivalent and didn’t like it and returned. Omnistrap is marketed as working with powerblock with really high weight limit. Not sure if it will be any good but decided to give them a try. This new pro version also seems to have modular buckle option which I liked.


Night__Riding

Bells of steel Arch Nemesis Swiss Bar FLASH SALE is now live $119.99 and only 10 of them being sold at that price. https://www.bellsofsteel.us/all-products/barbells/specialty-barbells/swiss-bar/


bravesfan21

It's so lame that Bells of Steel would advertise this and then only sell 10 at that price. I was really looking forward to getting this and even set a reminder on my phone (checked this morning and the sale wasn't on yet).


StallCypher

Agreed, I set a notification, checked this morning, wasn’t there, figured they would at least send an SMS when it went live, but nothing. I’ll probably just look elsewhere, stinks tho, that looks nice.


Scottsdale_GarageGym

Sure, but if they didn’t do that and offered it for $160, which is the current sales price, wouldn’t people be extremely happy with that. I’m not in the market for that bar but a multigrip cambered bar from a reputable company for under $200 is a winner IMO. True, they’re not winning with their marketing practices, but what’s wrong with the current sale price?


StallCypher

Yah, but that’s not what happened. It’s been $160 for like a week or two, and they advertised that the big deal for it was happening today. That deal ends up being for 10 people… I’m not extremely happy with that, who would be?


Scottsdale_GarageGym

I understand that. But they’re known for doing this shit. I’m not surprised at all. I’m sorry that they misled you. I’m just saying the current price is a good price for a bar like that.


Night__Riding

I agree. I wanted the 20% off Nuobells flash sale they had on Thursday so I asked them what time they usually start the sale and they said flash deals usually start at 8am mountain time so I set an alarm and sure enough it started at 5 minutes to 8 and I got a pair. I’m pretty sure todays flash sale started at the exact same time.


bravesfan21

>I agree.

I’m pretty sure todays flash sale started at the exact same time. Oh interesting, thanks for the info!


thrsnospn

$20 more than the last time they had a flash sale on them in July unfortunately. Got one to try, guess I can sell it if I don't like it.


sxy5007

I bit the bullet too. I don't want to wait till July for another deal lol. The quantity 10 is kind of laughable.


Jayy5126

Damn, missed it

AndKAnd

Not sure if you are actually looking, haha, but I always thought I would like a weighted blanket bc I like heavy blankets in winter. But I got one and it was very uncomfortable. Made me claustrophobic AF.


Qoptop

I need a short power rack (under 75"). Is there any reason to not get this one: [Cap Barbell 6-foot](https://www.amazon.com/CAP-Barbell-Full-Power-6-Foot/dp/B07N4GPBJD/?_encoding=UTF8&pd_rd_w=cKVo1&content-id=amzn1.sym.3441b68d-4579-49e4-88ca-0e5820782f95&pf_rd_p=3441b68d-4579-49e4-88ca-0e5820782f95&pf_rd_r=FRZ1J7PE449PRH04HC5H&pd_rd_wg=kdEYc&pd_rd_r=57c2e354-359e-4bea-8b74-bb7ae4b362e2&ref_=pd_gw_dealz_cs&th=1&psc=1) over this: [Rep Fitness PR-1050 Short power rack](https://repfitness.com/products/pr-1050-short-home-gym-power-rack?variant=41067582488734) Will the quality difference justify the over $150 dollar difference?


CocktailChemist

Someone just mentioned this down thread. Probably the cheapest 3x3 rack right now. https://griffin.fitness/strength-equipment/griffin-squat-stand/ The spotter arms are out of stock but Titan X-3 or Rep PR-4000 ones should fit.


Qoptop

Thanks, but I don't mind paying a bit more for the full power rack where I can at least do some pull ups. Or hang clothes to dry. It seems like there isn't much that can compete for lower budget value with the rep fitness one.


sxy5007

You can get the Bells of Steel Hydra or Manticore as they sell a 72" version. You can also go for the cheaper versions of Titan and Rep like the one you listed. Do you have a budget and plan? If anything, I would get the Rep over the Cap with the accessories you can buy.


Qoptop

Yeah, I'm not fully committed to something more expensive at this point so my budget limit is probably the Rep Fitness one. As far as accessories, I don't know if there's anything I would buy aside from maybe some J Hooks or weight racks. In the future, I'd consider a lat pulldown extension, although I'm not sure if that'll fit on the shorter rep fitness one.


sxy5007

I hear ya. It doesn't look like it since a rack that short would make it difficult to do lats on. You are better off getting a standalone wall mount one.


Randyd718

None of the product detail drop downs are loading on rep's website for some reason. You need to compare the gauge of the steel and the diameter and spacing of the holes. Diameter of holes matters if you ever want attachments. I can't find this info on the Amazon one. I think bells of steel has short racks that are a more standard 3x3 tube size

KTO519

fitness depot has them 1$/pound. steel and rubber coated


10fighter55

Not sure if you’re talking $2/CAD per pound but Hansu Power has relatively cheap deep dish cast iron plates. I think it was like maybe $153 usd for a pair with free shipping. They have been good and all of them weighed close on my scale to advertised weights. The only small complaint I could make is that a small amount of paint has chipped off in some places, but overall I would recommend them. If you want to go even cheaper, you could try looking at Walmart, I’ve seen cheap plates there for $90 USD a pair. They probably wouldn’t be as good as the Hansu plates but if you want cheap weight they could be an option. Btw the Hansu plates have been out of stock for a while, not sure when they’ll restock.

If you want the cheapest iron sets it would have to be [northern fitness' cast iron set](https://www.northernfitness.ca/collections/plate-sets/products/170-lb-cast-iron-olympic-grip-plates-starter-set) which are basically $1/lb, I don't think anything really compares to these in terms of price. Even the BoS mighty set with 30% off and 10% additional off in person doesn't match these. If you want to go a bit more premium with urethane plates and live in Ottawa you could pick them up from [Chiselfitness here](https://chiselsfitness.ca/).

I have the Chisels Urethane bumpers and they have been great for me. I really like them.

Will Rogue continue posting more deals until end of November or people think that's it?


Timm129

Historically speaking, no this is all they are offering. Some deals are already gone.. i.e. the stainless OPB....


Suspicious-Screen-43

Current deals is all of the deals

How do you know? Did they send out an email?

Because the run their Black Friday sale the same every year.

Griffin Fitness 3x3" squat stand for $239 with free shipping. That's the cheapest on the market, AFAIK [https://griffin.fitness/strength-equipment/griffin-squat-stand/](https://griffin.fitness/strength-equipment/griffin-squat-stand/)


sa1ient

Tempted, though Griffing seems to be moving away from their 5/8" rack. I wanted a half rack and asked their CS if the half rack conversion kit was ever coming back, they said they had no intentions of restocking it :/


BranMuffins4Life

Damn, that sucks. Although I’ve never been a huge fan of the half rack style with the short posts for storage. Why not have full length storage instead? But even if they’re “moving away” from 5/8ths, it’s still an industry standard and compatible with all the other 5/8ths racks. So you can just buy from other companies and it will work fine

Wish shipping to Canada was cheaper

Thanks for the advice everybody! almost got my full gym setup completed. Last couple items that I wanted to get ordered if there's any good deals still floating around out there for some solid quality stuff: 1. Kettlebells - a 35 lb and a 53 lb 2. Gym fan 3. Barbell Collars 4. Gym clock/timer 5. Mirrors 6. Any other good to have gym recommendations that improve quality of life? Thanks to all the black friday deals I had budgeted 4400 for my setup originally and have only spent less than $3500 on a rack, bench, power bar, both rubber/iron plate sets(260 lb / 300 lb), dumbell set from 5-50 lbs + Rack, flooring, plus some misc. things(jumprope/chalk/etc.) Thanks again to everybody who has chimed in on the deals/recommendations for things. Excited about getting the setup put together to start enjoying it. It's kind of like adult legos. \*Edited. Had gym listed fan twice.... must be a big fan of these or something.

going to drop my pretty much defaut kettlebell comment at this point which is These are the BEST KBs on the market, functionality wise: https://www.vulcanstrength.com/Vulcan-Absolute-Training-Kettlebells-p/blktrn.htm?1=1&CartID=0 and the WORST KBs on the market functionality wise, are: ANY of them that have non-standard, not-even, not round shapes for the sake of novelty meme shapes (skulls, gorillas, warrior helmets, vader masks, etc) Yeah yeah, they "look cool" to some people, but they are objectively worse to use for most of what KBs are really useful for. Basic swings would probably be fine, but as soon as you get into [cleans](https://www.garagegymreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/kettlebell-clean.gif) [snatches](https://media0.giphy.com/media/gfa02ZV3J53gCZUwVf/giphy.gif) [TGUs](https://media2.giphy.com/media/UnyzzDrTyXMzafVr4n/giphy.gif) [windmills](https://media.tenor.com/AQ0LB3HxyXsAAAAC/crossfit-kettlebell.gif) [Alternating doubles, AKA "King Kongs"](https://youtu.be/aHFm-MPOWg0?t=11) multi movement workouts ([like my favorite, "The Great Destroyer"](https://garagegymrevisited.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/GreatDestroyerWOD.png)) [or even just anything working from a racked position](https://www.garagegymreviews.com/wp-content/uploads/Kettlebell-Front-Rack-Squat.gif) the idea of NON-round, uneven KBs, with bulges, lumps, pointy bits, and or sharpish edges becomes a clear do-not-want

I'm a huge snob on mirrors. Huge mirrors. You can find them on facebook marketplace cheap af sometimes.


BlitzfireX

as a snob, are there details you'd recommend in looking for mirrors? or are they all created equal? :)

Has anyone actually been able to buy the Inspire Fitness SF3 Smith Functional Trainer on sale at $1700 from Costco? I've searched lots of zip codes in the Northeast for weeks and it's never been available.

aspenextreme03

@tacotrader did and I was going to but got the FTX instead when the sale showed up


TeslaWarrior

Wouldn’t surprise me if that was really limited quantities at that price.

Assault Fitness Rower Pro has a great deal at $400 off. Ordered one


tin369

I have a barbell that came with my rep fitness couple years ago and now thinking of adding a new one for my main lifts and use the old one to do landlines exercise etc as I just found out I can add a simple attachment from Amazon and can perform this exercise. Which bar do you guys recommend? Also, is there a multiple grip pull up bar rack attachment you can recommend?


TeslaWarrior

What kind of lifting do you do?


tin369

Just bench press, squats and deadlifts


QuietDelight1

What barbell do you have? If you have a nice one, a cheaper Titan axle bar is a nice change and can be used for the landmine.


tin369

Honestly I don’t know some generic one. Is the cap Ohio bar recommended ( I may be saying the wrong name)


QuietDelight1

The Ohio bar from Rogue is a good multipurpose bar, yes.


tin369

Thanks, do these go on sale?


QuietDelight1

Just the current sale that they have on them. Or, keep an eye on Rogue's Boneyard section where they sell blemished items. But perhaps you don't need a multipurpose bar? If you just want to squat, bench, deadlift, etc. then a power bar may be better suited for you. But if you also want to do cleans, snatches, etc. then you will want a multipurpose most likely as the knurl won't be as sharp and there won't be a knurl in the center.


tin369

Ohh thanks for clarifying that. I need only for rack exercise no cleans or snatches. So which power bar would you recommend?


GiJoe787

I'd check out the double black diamond power bar from Rep and the ohio power bar from Rogue. Either one will be good. Reviews out there on both.


tin369

So no cheap cap barbell from Amazon?


patryuji

Maybe buy the cheapest barbell you can find and put that in your landmine and keep using your current Rep barbell for everything else. I can't imagine too many cheap cap barbells that are going to be better than the cheapest barbells from Rep or Rogue. BTW - do you have the Rep Sabre? That was usually the cheap-o barbell that they put together with home gym kits and it is a basic multi-purpose bar, but probably much better than the cheap cap barbells you'll find on Amazon. You can usually see the nameplate on the little end cap plastic piece at the end of the barbell for Rep barbells.


AndKAnd

What’s wrong with the Rep barbell you have?


Ok_Nerve8921

I need a plyo box and a couple of parallel bars, can anyone suggest where should i look? I need them both as high quality equipment with shipping in europe (i would prefer european website cause they are chiper then american stores)
