Congratulations on the progress you’re making on your fitness journey, one that needs more than just applause. Because the health timeline is not linear for everyone, we recommend that you don’t compare yourself to anyone else. This is why we’re here to help you traverse through this journey and for those intermediate-level users, our personal trainers are here to answer all your questions without the guilt.

Weight Plate Pegs

Because we know that storing weights is important and safer for you, our team recommends weight plate pegs for all organizing. Not only are these plate pegs essential for storing, but they also help keep you keep peace of mind as they require no floor space, a win-win. Especially for those more compact areas.

Adjustable Bench

Once you feel more comfortable in the home gym, the adjustable bench is probably the most important tool for reaching your goals, especially those weightlifting ones. Some exercises you can perform on a bench include presses, bicep curls, pullovers, plank hold, and more.

Landmine Attachment

Want to target those hard-to-work-out muscles? Why not consider a landmine attachment that’ll have those gains closer than ever? A landmine is an attachment, a barbell, you can connect to the power rack horizontally or vertically to make your workouts more challenging.

Step up Platform

Recovering from an injury? Or looking for a bit more aerobic and cardio-based workouts, a step-up platform provides a great alternative to those weightlifting goals. We love box jumps, step-ups, and other dance-based movements. Reduce fat and boost your cardiovascular health at the same time with this tool.

Leg Attachment

For this one, you’ll need a bench. The leg attachment is great for strength training and targeting the quads, quadriceps, and upper legs. Some movements you can perform include leg presses and calf raises.

Barbell + Barbell Vertical Holder

When you’re looking to tackle those weightlifting goals, a barbell vertical holder is a great tool for storing the weights. We love this because it’s also a safe way to maintain all your equipment in one place while keeping your safe organized.

Chalk Station

If you love to weightlift, one of the best ways to maintain stability is to secure your grip by soaking your palms and fingers in magnesium carbonate. You’ve probably seen gymnasts in the Olympics using this chalk, and for a good reason. We encourage you to try this, as you start to lift more heavy.

Dip Bars

Make those arms burn! Dips are one of the best exercises for your triceps, chest, pecs, and shoulders. You’ve already seen these at the park, kids love playing with them. Perform tricep dips, dip holds, leg raises, and more with them.

Dumbbell Rack

You’ve seen dumbbell racks at the gyms and they are an excellent way to keep organized and clean. Once you gain more strength, you’ll probably have more dumbbells, why not keep them orderly and in one place?

Clamps/Collars

This one is of uttermost importance if you’re a seasonal weightlifter as you’ll want the plates to be secure during your exercises. This facilitates the workout and is a necessity for lifting, keeping you safe from the barbells.
