This is my go to weight vest. Great comfort for long and heavy use. Light weight and it dry's quickly. The way the plates secure is easy to adjust and holds heavy plates secure. Has some traditional features of a normal tac vest, but size is significantly reduced to be used specifically for workouts. The comparable vest is the classic 5.11. This is the gold standard in my opinion.

There is a chance this is the first piece of equipment I bought for the home gym. I really suggest getting a single deadlift jack over these. These are good for a gym bag to take go a commercial gym that doesn’t have a jack. Good material, but limited on clearance and not always a clean setup for easy of plate removal.

This tool has made cleaning my barbells a breeze. Get their 3in1 as well to really clean up the place. I am paraphrasing, but a comment from the owner that has always stuck with me about these was something along the lines of “we thought they would last for years in a home gym and maybe a year at a CrossFit box. Well turns out they last for years in a CrossFit box and will likely last forever in a home gym.” They made them so good it’s harder to make money on for them. That’s a breath of fresh air these days. I don’t think it is out yet, but they are also doing an axle brush… I’m stoked about that! Clean up the knurled axle.

This was my introduction into the world of Massenomics. Great quality flag that is often one of the things most people comment on in the gym.

For some, I’d say a dedicated standing chalk bowl is more functional and more fun, but with the space and cost I do think this is an okay alternative. I can fit A LOT of chalk in this bag so it has become a set and forget piece in the gym when it comes to refilling. I’m able to just drop it next to wherever I’m needing it and then tuck it in the corner out of the way when done. You can do the same thing with some DIY options, but this does have a fun look to it to match the gym feel.

This is much more comfortable than setting up on your bench for hip thrusts. This with the hip thrust pad are a great combo. This is a bit pricy, but the material they use is very high quality, comfortable, and durable. What I like most is how it angles with you during the movement.

The added width and curve to this wheel helps this feel sturdy under higher load weights. This is the ab wheel I’d recommend to most people as it will fit anyone in your gym and you won’t worry about tipping unless you are significantly making an error.

These were my favorite magnetic collars till I got the USA aluminum magnetic collars. I’m not a huge fan of how the lever feels. It’s a bit thin and does not feel secure. If you like OSO then you will love these. I just don’t generally recommend them as for something just a bit more expensive feels better in every way, including performance, in my opinion.
