I initially questioned spending $90 on a nunchuck style handle. What convinced me was the large, ergonomic base and the nice thick grip. The swivel attachment on the top was also a bonus since it avoids having to use a swivel shackle or daisy chaining carabiners. After getting my first eclipse handle, I instantly knew I made the right purchase. Machined out of a single piece of aluminum, the quality on the handle is second to none. It features a great grippy knurling that feels comfortable and will never slip out of your hand. If you've used longer nunchuck handles before, you know that they can create all kinds of torque on your wrists that's just downright uncomfortable. The length of the eclipse grip is perfect for keeping you locked into the cable. I wouldn't call this a mush buy since you can get some of the same benefits and do the same movements by grabbing the ball end on your cables. But if you're looking for the best nunchuck style handle, look no further.

When I first started a home gym, I bought a standard barbell cleaning kit with a straight nylon brush and some 3-in-1 oil. I rarely used the brush to knock chalk off my bars because it was time consuming and it never seemed to reach into the knurling the way I wanted. After I first saw the Barbell Rescue brush, I knew immediately that it was a must buy. The clamshell design surrounds your bar with bristles. What used to take 5-10 minutes, can be done in less than a minute. Not only is it great for everyday brushing, but it excels when you want to do a deep clean and ensure you get oil down into the knurling. Very comfortable in the hand and you can even customize your brush with your favorite color insert. A must have for any home gym.

The Rogue Adjustable Bench 2.0 is a beast of a bench. The design shows its age missing features like a grippy pad, an enclosed ladder, and laser cut angle markings. The pad is firm and works great for incline work, but isn't comfortable for flat benching. I wouldn't recommend this as your only bench for that reason, but as an accessory bench it works well. The wheels are high quality and roll well and you can store the bench upright with the optional vertical storage bracket. However, the bench is quite heavy and isn't easy to move around in tight spaces. The bench is discontinued, so unless you find it for sale used at a good price (sub-$300) you're better off buying a newer adjustable bench that fits your goals and budget.

There are few universals in a home gym but horse stall mats come closer than just about anything. We almost all have them or have at least used them in the past. Moving them never gets easier, until now. The Horse Stall Mat Gripper is the only attachment that specifically trains your ability to lift and grip pony pads. A fun implement to throw into your training and the best way to ensure that you're always game day ready in case any horse stall mats pop up along your path.
