I found a 160’ 2” rope on FBMP that used to be used on a Navy boat. Cut it in half to be used for truck pulls. It is pretty challenging to find a good length of rope for truck pulls so I recommend taking to the used market. 2” is a comfortable size for pull rope.

Probably the best bang for buck upright loading farmers. Knurling on the handles has a bit of grip, but more passive. For farmers I think this is a pretty good balance. For sure get these over a front load option.

This plus the swing handle is a dream for developing power and explosiveness in the hips. A must for strongman in my opinion. Spacers aren’t really necessary, but can increase the fit and security. Unless you have room for a handful of KBs get this. Even then, get this too so you have options for HEAVY swings. Cost is very reasonable for MBPC

My y2 is cut down to be between the size of a y2 and y1. I love this thing. I think the y1 is too short and the y2 is too tall to easily fit out most garage doors. Get the y2 and chop it down. I used this as my rack for years and loved it. I have a more traditional rack now, but I may have liked using the y2 for a rack more than anything else. Feels quality and easy to adjust. If you get this, also get the spotter arms so you can use it as a rack or a spare rack.

The SOS may often be considered the flag ship product of MBPC, but I think this is truly the standout piece. Incredibly sturdy. Feels mostly like a keg (a really nice one). Not too much of a pain to change weights. It’s realistic to make multiple weight changes on this in one workout and not take up an annoying amount of time and effort. If you had a bunch of space I’d say getting normal kegs would be better, but moderate to low space gyms would benefit from just having one of these for kegs. You can load this heavier than you will ever lift. Biggest complaint is the weight horn is too thick and won’t take tight tolerance machined plates. You need sloppy loose plates to fit. Strongman gyms typically have those, but a home gym spending over 1K on a keg might only have machined plates. Just be ready to figure it out.

I got this off FBMP from a guy who had a local fabricator who was making a handful of strongman implements. 12” CDB with 3” handle. 102 LBs empty. $250 (used). Not sure what they charged new. This thing is a monster. Training on a 3” handle is such a good way to train. Makes any 2.5 inch cake. I’ve had a couple bad drops with this and 1 really bad drop. Didn’t dent the dumbbell one bit. Video on my instagram of that drop and it’s incredible it didn’t dent the thing. Wish I knew the fabricator. They should be making more bells!

The price might catch you off guard on these, but these are truly worth it. Ab mat attention to detail and use of quality materials makes something as simple as a crash pad a nice experience. The foam catches the log and doesn’t bounce much at all. You can drop from overhead with confidence and little need to match where it’s going. I also use these for my CDB and they work well for that as well.

These create a very secure frame out of the Titan farmers handles. Though it is very secure, getting these installed can be a bit of a pain due to having to find the correct hole spacing and lining up both handles. It’s not a huge deal, but it isn’t seamless either. Personally I’d recommend getting their handles and the MBPC frame attachment. It’s not only easier to set up, but will give you options for standard and wide frame. Both come up in comps so having both will be a bonus.
