Forum: Workout Equipment

Hi Folks: I just joined a gym that uses Cybex Classic Selectorized equipment. It's the "classic" stuff, not the newer Cybex gear. The weights in the stack are labeled with numbers (01, 02, 03. 04 etc). Can anyone tell me if each of these weights is 10 lbs or some consistent number? Does the...

Hello, I recently received a Keiser M3 as a hand-me-down. Definitely not a bike I could afford to buy and it's in pretty rough shape, but I couldn't pass this up. I'd like to resolve a few of issues and I don't mind getting my hands dirty. You'll have to forgive me for not knowing the correct...

Can anyone speak about their experience maintaining or refurbishing cable attachments that do not revolve smoothly? I just received the Ivanko RSB-34 34" straight bar cable attachment and it has a little bit of stick to it when using it for triceps press downs. I've sprayed the rotating...

Yet another FI adjustable bench in the mix of competitors, looks nice for those in the market and has a 12" wide pad with backing steel plate and different color frame and upholstery choices and custom options, also has some unique new features to rival the mainstream market and is made in a small...

Hello, first time posting here. Currently building out a garage gym and have several Hammer Strength machines incoming to compliment my Prime Fitness HLP power rack and free weights. The only chest piece I have coming is the HS incline press and I cannot decide on a flat/overall chest piece to go...

https://edgefitnesssystems.com/products/incline-lever-row Looks pretty dope honestly and at 800$, that seems like a rly good price for a chest supported row compared to stuff like Arsenal Strength, etc…. I mean don’t get me wrong, but Arsenal has something similar that they quoted me on that’s...

Hi Gym Owners, I'm looking to open up a gym in the next year. I live in Washington, workout a lot and have worked hard to save some dough to do this. I want to know how you all did this, so i go in prepared and know all the requirements that help or are needed. I'm not looking for this to be...

Basement Brandon reviewed Irwin Fitness Roller J-Cups and they look pretty great. I checked out their site and the monolift attachment and adjustable bench caught my eye as well. It looks like they put a lot of thought into their products and have good build quality. Not cheap and shipping from...

I'm interested in throwing in some weighted push ups into my routine and came across this plate loaded vest, kinda pricey, but this is the equipment forum so here's the link... ...

Does anyone know the name of a product that is used to put rubber grips on machines? It is very slippery, then dries in a day.

I'm a fan of stainless powerlifting bars and will probably add another one to my rack in the next few months. Most likely the American Barbell Elite Power Bar, but I'm also looking at Rogue 2X Aggro and Vulcan Strength. The other one that crossed my mind was Ivanko, but I just can't imagine that...

Looks pretty cool. Not sure how the build quality will be (supposedly only 500 pound limit?), or the price, but something to look forward to. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/YSinor7Zh-I Also visit their instagram page https://www.instagram.com/phenoxfitness/

Thinking about picking up a rackable cambered bar, I haven't ever used one before so seeing if there are any brands I should look at/avoid. Leaning towards Rogue at the moment since they seem to have a good price while being made in the US, though shipping makes it a little less affordable. Wasn't...

I work a very busy job and find it much easier to work out at home consistently, so we've recently invested into some home gym equipment and things have been working very well. We currently have a rowing machine, an adjustable set of Bowflex dumbbells, and a bench. We're currently considering...

After seeing videos of the Torque and XPO sleds, there's no way I would want to deal with the hassles of more traditional sleds. With wheeled sleds that have internal resistance, there's virtually no noise to annoy you or your neighbors, no damage to your driveway, no need to load up sled with 45lb...

FYI for those who like these dumbbells... I thought that Dick's Sporting Goods only made and sold these up to 50lbs. But I saw these at the Worcester, MA location recently. Several pairs of 70's & 65's and one 60. Handle seemed very large in diameter, maybe 1-3/8' or 1-1/2". Also $$$ as I was...

Hi, hope this is the right forum to ask, but besides the Theragun and the Hypervolt (and a homemade jigsaw), has anyone tried a massage gun that they really like? Looking for something to assist recovery. Thanks in advance.
