I use to farm oysters and a lot of our equipment that was submerged in ocean water the majority of the time was made from galvanized steel. Always wondered why no one made gym equipment with it. Love the skid plate idea on the rack and the gym box!
That's cool to hear. It's held up well thus far!
@@GarageGymReviews Be cool to see a follow up. You should push Rep into picking this up and getting it down to 1/3 the price lol. Rep x Eleiko
Initially, I was on board with the Eleiko. Then I saw the price! Then I started thinking about how hot that rack will be in the middle of summer. I think I'll stay in the garage.
Eleiko it's out of his mind to price the rack at over 5k. You can literally buy at least 5 powder coated power racks if you wanted to every time they rust.
You will still come ahead.
I bought the fitness reality power rack.and had it for about a month in the living room before my wife kicked us both out to the back yard. I managed to be able to come back with some begging involve same day I got kicked out. But not the rack. It been over 1 year out side and the rack has no rust.
Definitely a market for galvanize power racks but not at a 5k price point.
I agree that Eleiko is priced to high and in my opinion for the financially well off buyer.
All eleiko stuff is crazy expensive, why would you expect this to be any different? the pricing seems inline with their other stuff, if anything they would be out of their mind to change their model, as they have obviously been successful with it for a very long time.
I wondered why they use galvo over stainless.
@@dandeveny4513 True. Been expensive. And true they would be out of their mind to change their model that is working for them. Obviously making profit 📈 since they still business. Also true they had choose stainless steel instead of galvanize. Probably would've look more of prestigious power rack. But above all this. Still insane no to open a market for those like myself that can't afford a 5k rack. Their sell definitely would increase.
But that's my opinion. They must have a reason why their not doing it. But not been innovative definitely no bueno. Look at Rep fitness. Their new attachments for their power rack are awesome and at half the price. and bring more value 👏. Not to mention you can do more sorts of work outs. And been super innovative in their products with a definitely reasonable price.
But to summarize. You.ll have a good day. Got to go get some of the best 🍣 in Georgia.
“Until my wife kicked us both out to the back yard” … 1 Like = 1 Respect sent
Huge moment. Just bought my first squat rack, adjustable bench, Olympic bar, bumper plates and gymnastic rings. At 17 years old I’m so pumped
it's mid april and woke up to a skiff of snow.. and yet I still am somehow trying to justify an outdoor setup. Great video
Back when it was impossible to get anything, I had to build a squat rack out of pressure-treated 4x4's. Metal pipes for safeties, plumbing hardware for j-hooks, and concrete weight plates. It wasn't pretty, but it got the job done. I was lucky to snag a Wonderbar from Fringe Sports. It's been outdoors since July '20, so nearing two years and the barbell is still fine. No rust, and the bearings still spin well. Admittedly, I live in California, so it's only rained like three times since then.
California? Surprised no one stole it yet.
sorry for hijacking a comment ,but why is it in america they blur the cars reg plate ? isnt it public information anyway
@@girlsdrinkfeck they are not public information like they are in other countries.
@@bmstylee? So what's diff between having the plate on show in public roads vs a video
@@girlsdrinkfeck guessing Coop wants his privacy since your registration has all sorts of information on it. I know in Ohio if you have a permit to carry a handgun it shows on your license.
Coop is about to turn his whole house into a gym 😂
Coop is about to take his gym on a date with that new truck rig.
Pretty much already there. There's some sort of equipment in just about every room. My poor wife...
@@GarageGymReviews I've done the same to my house, only no wife.
Make it happen! 🥳
Home gym. Home. Gym.
Training outside is so much fun! Now that the weather is getting nicer I'm for sure gonna do it more, particularly for GPP work. My favourite is to load bumper plates into a wheelbarrow and do walk intervals (45s walking, 15 resting using a boxing timer app). Builds work capacity, traps and forearms like hell and I get a good dose of vitamin d while I do it! Wins for days
This is awesome, so well researched and love you passion for fitness.
I have seriously been waiting for this video! My one car garage has been fully converted to a gym and I still feel like I need more room. Making a ninja warrior training course outside rn. One thing I’d say you need to add is a 15-20ft rope climb with a crash pad underneath
love the video coop, great setup
Awesome stuff Thank You Sir!
The hitch mount rack would be good for personal trainers that go to their clients.
Absolutely, Andrew! Most of our customers who purchase it are personal trainers doing 1-1 or small group, right to their clients homes... or people traveling in RVs like Coop said.
Great idea! Could definitely see it used in that way.
You beat me to it. That is exactly what I was thinking. I have been letting a few ideas roll around in my head for mobile(wheels/ ramp/box suitcase) gym that personal trainers would use. Two of my good friends are trainers and I'm a "maker"? And enjoy time in my workshop. I'm excited to check out beaver fit's stuff and see how it matches up with some of my ideas.
I thought it was for those crossfitters that begin every conversation with "I do crossfit"
BOOM! Mobile training at the park with clients!!!
Weather is getting nice in New England, bout to slide open my 1'x2' windows.
Ayyyyy! Get that air flow amongst all the asbestos in the basement!
@@GarageGymReviews We don’t have finished basements up here in NE, so we tend to keep our fancy asbestos floors in the kitchen.
That’s pretty sweet. Let the galvanization begin! Another solid video.
Great equipments! Love the truck rack and box. Good concept.
A #damstrong concept, if you ask us .
Nice, very nice! BTW- I've found that Johnson's Paste Wax is the best anti-rust product for any exterior metal. Dries to an invisible coating, which is not greasy so it works great on barbells and dumbbells. I've tried a lot of other rustproofing products but I've found the Johnsons is the most effective, relatively cheap and user-friendly.
I thought about cementing in 2 4x4’s with a pull-up bar in the back yard then drilling a Sorinex Off Grid into them but I just don’t have the yard for it.
If I was strictly working outside though I think that would be a cool setup. Get some cement weights and a cheap axle and BAM! Mean looking setup.
I like the Sorinex for outside because there are no tubes for anything to get into.
That Beaver Fit gym box is amazing! I had no idea about this company, thanks for covering it. Looks like they have a shed too that can store all kinds of equipment.
We've got all kinds of #damstrong training + storage solutions built for the outdoors, indoors, or on the go. Let us know if we can help you find what would be best for your needs!
Hey coop. Maybe add in one of those cable pulley set ups. I bought 2 cheap ones and use them on my outdoor pull up bar all the time. The ones you can load plates on . They are great and haven't died yet and it's been 6 months in the Australian heat, stormsz hail etc and I just give the bearings a little.lube spray before I workout and they are golden.
The ones I bought come with an adapter for standard and Olympic weights. You can also get an extra pulley to mount down low to convert it into a low cable instead of high. You'd probably need to attach it with a couple bolts but I plan on getting one and attaching it to the wall under the pull up bar.
The other cheaper option for outdoor weights is the sand filled plastic kind. They are not very accurate with their weight measurements but for outdoor use they won't rust, flake or break. They are waterproof and sealed up. I've only broken one and it was me dropping a bar on a funny angle. You can get 90kgs/200 pounds for around the 220us dollar mark. I bought a 300kg payload garden wagon to move them about to different stations. I also Jerry rigged it to make it into a sled kind of 🤣🤣. They spend all day and night outside and have been great for a cheaper option. The brand is cortex endurasheild cheap but for outdoor I was pleasantly surprised at their robust construction .
These weight with the cable pulleys really improved my workouts because I could add in heaps more exercises that previously I was unable to do with my indoor set up.
Coop, gracias por la revisión, Saludos desde Chile.
Can you do a summer review of your outdoor setup? What you liked, what you didn't, what you'd change? Both the Eleko & BearverFit look nice & surprisingly similar in price, so your thoughts on what you still use would be awesome.
I keep my old (15 years) cheap box store powder coat inclinable bench outdoors on the concrete slab patio behind the back door. It's been out there for five years in coastal New England, no major rust so far. I use the lying hamstring curl and leg extension attachment all winter. Lifting under the winter night sky is beautiful for about 3 sets of each, nothing excessive. I do them last. I also leave a cheap old box store barbell out as a landmine, and have protected the corner of the back stair for use as a landmine terminal. I have horse stall matts deployed, and when weather is amenable do overhead squats, front squats, snatch, clean and jerk, etc with Vulcan Alphas. I do RDLs from a couple of dining room chairs. I'm considering bringing my shorty 5 ft bearing bar and a couple of plates to work so I can get after it in the parking lot as soon as the last student is picked up, or bring the barbell to the beach. My main gym is what we call a 3 season room or a shade porch. It's a room added to the north side of the house, with top hinged windows on 3 sides. They stay open during summer rain. When the leaves are on it's shady, with a cross breeze. When the leaves are down it's full of light. The Slab is right behind it. "Works good." The truck gets to stay protected in the garage. I do grease the cheap old barbell and the bearing on the leg attachment. Cheap and effective!
Perfect season for a outdoor pump!
My setup is basically my back patio. It's covered, but with high humidity, it only helps so much.
My black zinc oxide Ohio Power Bar has some rust after a few years of this, but has held up fairly well considering. I can only imagine the cerakote will do better.
Perfect! I live in the rainy PNW with. Backyard, but no garage!
Nice! I was looking at the Beaverfit and Hitchfit racks for that RV life.
We've got a bunch of customers using it for that exact reason!
I am in the Midwest as well and during the nicer months I will take my strongman equipment outside for workouts.
Didn’t know Eleiko was making racks, Nice!! Sweet truck, Coop 🤙🤙🤙 Got a 4Runner myself 🏆🏆🏆
In the beginning he said all COOPED up and that is quite humorous
Super cool to see Wright Fitness get mentioned!
I hope to do this just with my old T3 squat stands. Light enough to bring inside & out.
Need another update ! love outdoor gym
Powder coat is not a spray. It's a bath of resin flakes (the core of every paint) which is vibrating. The vibration has the same effect as a spray except it covers all sides including the inside. It is then baked in a autoclave. Much more durable than a rattle can spray.
Your neighbors must be thrilled. I love it.
That hitch rack goes hand in hand with the bumper dumper . Now Thats a great ecosystem
I’m surprised Eleiko didn’t use stainless steel for that rack. I’ve seen a few custom made stainless racks and aside from being corrosion resistant and insanely rigid, they were also beautiful. They required no paint and looked like works of art.
i would assume cost? also galvanized coating is quite scratch resistant considering the way attachments fit on a power rack, although not sure how stainless behaves on that regard
@@kostasanton5286 galvanization is tough, but it’s still just a surface treatment, where as stainless is stainless all the way through. It’s not uncommon to see galvanized steel that’s been scratched to have rust where it was scratched, whereas stainless is always corrosion resistant, all the way through.
Stainless is expensive (nearly 4x the price of regular mild steel, in my area) but because it’s Eleiko, I’d assume that wouldn’t be an issue. A stainless rack would cost a premium, but people who buy Eleiko are typically willing to pay a premium for gym equipment.
@@SkylerKing they should definitely have as an option. I think they felt that galvanized is enough for outdoor use, a good compromise of resistance and cost.
Love the video! The Eleiko is for sure out of my price range lol Do you have any recommendations for any outdoor rigs that would work for taller people for gymnastics movements, ttb, muscle ups and maybe some rope climbs?
Ohh this gone be awesome. I'm thanking you in advance before I even watch it
Hey Coop, thx for your good work. Yet, what STILL is missing would be a series of vids on outdoor accessories, such as barbell, dumbbells etc that also shoudl be weather-proof/ galvanized etc. I am desperately waiting for some advice here since my impression outdoor accessories is a totally sunderserved market. I live in Germany and consider buying a tailored Eleiko Prestera 4 Stations (similar to the XF80, but with customized longer uprights in the back to be able to do muscle-ups and rope-climbing, btw: It comes with what you were missing in your vid!). So please share some nice pieces for weather-proof dumbbels, barbells, weight plates etc..Thx, Martin, Berlin, Germany
Coop you should compare the Eleiko Galvanized Rack to one of Get Rx'd Galvanized Racks/Rigs to offer people more options, attachments, price points, etc. to see which is better for outdoor use and budget.
Hornets and wasps are gonna love the outdoor setup too 😬
Every time Coop says, '...for most people,' you need to do a shot.
Just bought some horse mats for my gym from tractor supply 🤘 thanks Coop
That beaverfit rack with the treasure chest... dang, my backyard is looking primed for one.
Sounds like a #damstrong plan to us!
Sick!
Those beaver fit units are super cool.
They're #damstrong too 🔥💪🇺🇸
I've been watching a lot of your videos lately as I'm trying to put together a squat rack, bar and bumper plate set. I had my mind set on Rogue equipment. But it seems I can get the same stuff cheaper from Fringe. I know Fringe makes good bumper plates. My questions are is the wonder bar a good bar? Is the Fringe commercial squat rack a good rack? How do they compare to similar products from Rogue. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks.
"I'm tired of being all cooped up"
iight Ima head out 💀
You guys should review SwingSesh
I have many a time trained on beaverfit while in the army. It’s such a lifesaver for those of us that train to perform a job in austere areas. That bar that it comes with is very good I squatted 385 no problem no bending over time not great but really all we can ask is that it doesn’t bend into a buffalo bar
Thank you for your service and we're glad our equipment could help keep you #damstrong in the field.
Now all together:
''It's galvanized''
Hi Coop. At 4:23 you show the Eleiko Magnetic Pin. Looks like you switched it out for the Rogue Monster Lite Pin? Will this work the other way, using the Eleiko Magnetic Pin on a Rogue Monster Lite rack? Eleiko doesn't mention hole size on its site, and I would like to know if the Magnetic Pin would too large, fit perfectly, or be a bit loose? Cheers.
My patio gym is my life 🔥Wouldn't have made it through the kovud freak out otherwise.
That Beaver box costs almost $6k for a pair of uprights connected to a box...
🔥🔥🔥
Coup, when are you going to do a review on the Force G20?
Hey, Coop! I just had an awesome marketplace find where I got 380 lbs of the bumpers from greyman gear. Would you say they are okay to train with on a carport like your own without having any mats in place? I do several Olympic lifts, so I just want some feedback on whether you think it’s okay to snatch, clean and jerk, etc. with that gear on the bare carport?
Hm. This gives me further ideas for the sneaky outdoor gym I hope to build in my garden someday.
Galvanized!
coop’s new idea be like «i added a home to my gym!!»
Titan has a Galvanized rack as well. Wish REP and/or Rogue offered a Galvanized rack. Really interested to see how that Cerekote barbell holds up. Outdoor gym owner here
Get Rx'D Also has galvanized options.
Titan had / has a decent outdoor system also galvanized.
What kind of wood panelling do you have inside your garage Coop?
you need to check out the Hyde Barbells from Germany, manufactured in Germany, German Steel, German quality who has same prices like Eleiko but as good as Eleiko, some say better as Eleiko!
That rack would be pretty cool for traveling personal trainers
That is what a lot of our customers buy it for! That or our Beyond Trailers, a fully mobile gym on wheels.
I want to buy either 2 x Prime Fitness Selectorized Single Stack or 1 x Rogue Lat Pulldown LP-2 and 2x Rogue Cable Tower CT-1. Which one would you choose and which one do you think has the better quality?
I'm patenting a product that allows you to put adjustable dumbells on a barbell and attach them to calipers for pulley systems. It's ment for budget gyms, would you review it once I get it manufactured? It's made of aluminum not galvanized steel :)
I wonder how much galvanized steel costs as opposed to power coat. I bought a used galvanized scaffold bar for about a tenner to use as an axel bar and it worked perfect, better than spending almost a hundred on powder coated one.
Does anyone know how good the grip is on a galvanized bar for pull ups compared to things like stainless steel or powder coated bars?
Do you know if the torque m1 sled will be on sale for Black Friday?
Any updates on the outdoor setup Coop?
Have you tried using the Exer-Genie to replace sled work? Seems like a compact and more affordable device versus the Run Rocket? I’d be curious to see a review on it.
This is what I have done. If you go on ebay, you can find vintage ones for a great price. Just replace the rope. However, I find that the resistance isn't smooth when doing reverse sled. But it is passable. I am looking into getting the Torque M1 Tank.
I would love it if Rep would make their new yolk galvanized.
COOP WHAT IS THAT AFFIXED TO YOUR FREE MOTION!! VIDEO PLEASEEEE!
where do you put it if it rain and what if your garage is full
Those Nuo Bells still holding up well? Any issues with the plastic parts??
Next episode - welcome to my master bedroom. This is a powerbed by Rogue
I really just wish someone would come out with a 3x3 yoke with 5/8” holes. If they could come up with a way to have feet that easily fold for storage even better. That way I can use all my attachments, store it and bring it in and outside whenever I want.
I thought Rep was heading in that direction but it looks like they’re new yoke is going to be over built it into something way more complicated
I was hoping Rep would do that same thing too. Maybe give us an option to galvanize it.
“Cooped” up… hahaha
The only thing left to add is sand Coop.
Does the Eleiko have an option for 15' rope climbs?
Place your guesses below for how much you think this Eleiko rack is LOL
I'm guessing, $3k.. (LOL boy was I off..)
Link is in the description
5000 :(
It's galvanized !
Coop: Tired of being Cooped up
Where did you get Orange handle pin from? At 4:19
Coop you should do a video where you interview your wife on her thoughts about GGR and everything
Damn you really trust your neighbors to leave all that stuff outside. Haha
LOL Midwest tsunamis? 🤣🤣🤣
Coop! Did you lose weight ? You used to lift bigger. Either way; content is great! ✌🏾
I want to see a bedroom gym next!
It's just crash pads and gymnastic rings. Kinda odd but Coop really likes rings.
That hitch rack is exactly what I want.
Let us know when that want, becomes a need 💪
@@BeaverFitUSA Do you ship to Canada?
@@ExpeditionaryRanger yes we do!
I've had a rack in my backyard for 2 years now and I just make sure I put a tarp over it. $500 bucks!
I would assume based on the name the Eleiko is 80mm x 80mm (80mm = 3.15")
I'm assuming beaver fit recommends lot of snatches in your training?
I'm curious if it is galvanized?
Is it actually hot dipped galvanized? Or electro-galvinized? The website doesn't seem to state it. If it's legit hot dipped, that's awesome.
Save money on the Torque Tank and just get a hitch mounted truck push attachment to push that Tacoma up and down that driveway
Portable Sun shades awning? Sunscreen will act like galvanization for you largest organ! Seriously, love the home gym equipment ideas! I was 700lbs, and started out on my bed with cat litter jugs filled with water!
p.s. Welding, cutting, or brazing galvanized steel can lead to Metal Fume Fever
I like 👍🏼
Coop did you get the trail edition Tacoma? You should have gotten sliders rather than side steps but if your not rockcrawling I understand why you wouldn't get them. You gotta go get a rtt now and please for the love of God get rid of the stock tires, you'll thank me later.
