One of the last products ever developed by Kabuki Strength. Originally planned for use in the Washington State Fair USS Strongman Throwdown, the troubles at Kabuki meant this bar never got the debut it deserved. Great knurling with a black oxide coating, this isn't just a bar, it's a piece of history. Only 10 were ever made and I was lucky enough to buy mine from the Mad Scientist himself. At $500 for a made-in-USA monster bar, it's hard to argue the value I got from this bar. Definitely a niche bar at 29 mm and 30 kg. I'm glad I picked one up just so I'm ready in case anything pops up.

The best deadlift bar that money can buy, but is it worth it? The Il Padrino fulfills the original purpose of the Kabuki Deadlift bar by making a 27mm, 20 kg deadlift bar that maxes out allowed USPA specs. Made from stainless steel and hard chrome, the build quality on this bar is a step above any other bar. The catch? Almost no competitions actually use this bar or ones like it. If you like whippy bars and love stainless steel as much as I do, this bar makes a lot of sense. If you just want a deadlift bar to train for you next meet, get the Texas and save that cash for something else.

THE STANDARD for home gym flooring. Horse stall mats are cost effective and thicker than most other rubber flooring options. Protect your subfloor with 3/4 inches of pure American rubber.

A unique take on a loading pin. The horizontal loading makes it easy to change weights while leaving your attachment or cable attached to the pin. My only complaint is the square tubing for loading plates means that there's a good deal of slop. Even so, the price and build quality more than make up for it. This is the perfect companion to a horse stall mat gripper or for a DIY cable setup.

Elevate your D-handles with these handmade leather lifting straps. I pair mine with the Rogue H-5 aluminum handles to create the best D-handles I've ever used. These straps are long which means you'll have plenty of room for your hands for any movement.

I actually own the (now-defunct) Steadfast Lifting Glute Ham Slider, but I've tried out the Bells of Steel version at their show room. The powder coat is consistent and the overall build quality is high. The wheels spin freely and the addition of a connection point for cables or bands is a nice touch on the BoS version.

Take your land mine work to the next level with the Figjammer! The 1" holes let you attach handles, leg rollers, or anything else you can think of to use your land mine for almost anything. My favorite movements with this are viking presses and hack squats. The build quality you get from a small USA-based fabricator is second to none. I knocked one star off of my performance rating only because this uses the typical metal screw tightening system that can mar up your barbell sleeve over time. I'd love to see version 2.0 that uses something more barbell friendly, but really this is in line with almost all landmine attachments.

A great option to add grip training to your programming. With the versatility of going on a barbell, set of dumbbells, or even a cable attachment you can take any shaft to the next level of girth. One thing to keep in mind is that the opening for these is only so big so it won't fit on shafts that are over 29-30mm in diameter. That limits my use of these somewhat since they don't fit on my Pepin Fast Series. Even so, it's hard to argue with the price to functionality ratio.
