without watching, top 5 things to buy after a power rack and bar: reverse hyper, calf machine, functional trainer, fly wheel, sauna. Let's see how good I did !
I had a flashback to the intervention that my shoulder surgeon and physical therapist had for me when you pulled out that dip attachment. They asked that I give up dips forever and they promised that would be the only thing they asked me to give up. Awesome video as always brother!
You won my heart by promoting a $150 curl bar as the expensive pick for a curl bar. I've got a crow bar and it's great for my once a week needs. I've got a pretty expensive home gym, but functionality with quality that does the job beats throwing stupid money at overkill products that limit your ability to get what you need for an overall workout.
I don't care how people spend their money but I thought it was my top pick and gave my reasons. We're probably all pretty good at spending in the home gym community
Keep it coming Gluck! Your videos continue to get better and your heading in the right direction! Love the comedy. Video idea here, I wanna see someone (YOU) set their PRs while eating one of the worlds hottest peppers!!!!!
Gluck, if it wasn’t for your constant talking with your hands I would have no idea what you’re saying. Your Italian fans are thankful, never apologize.
Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge. The angles on the Rep Fitness curl bar look less acute than those on your Rogue. If so, I may be going with the latter like you, as I like the sharper bends.
Love the video! Probably worth mentioning that you would need 4x every Olympic weight, including fractionals for the Olympic dumbbells to be any use. For me there isn't enough benefit so I barely use mine and stick with standard adjustables. Much cheaper and just as beneficial.
“Playing with 3.5 in” lmfao. Thanks for having budget friendly options too. I’m also not crazy about wanting to spend hundreds of dollars on just handles or a curl bar.
As a fitness equipment repair technician I want to say thank you for not mentioning any curl bars or barbells with sleeves that bolt on I have to tighten the bolts at every gym I visit with one of those and not as important on a curl bar but on a standard size barbell I cannot State the importance enough of saying how obnoxious and cheap and unsafe it is. Beyond that they typically aren't that much cheaper.
Well those just suck and it's the same thing + most people don't own them one side is constantly loosening and they're a bit sketchy and not smooth let's not mention who doesn't want to drop a weight on their head which would never happen because everybody reads all the warning labels stuck all over their fitness equipment and adheres to a strict maintenance schedule everybody reads their owner's manuals and does perfect maintenance all the time just like with their car
@@daleeldridge7942 when you're right you're right! I use to have to tighten them at a commercial gym because idk wth the staff was doing but I liked my teeth so...
I have a lot of old York barbell one inch hole plates so I purchased Pepin dumbbell handles to replace the old spin lock handles. These work well in my situation. For now…
I have a land mine and spotter arms and straps. Since I have IronMaster adjustable dumbbells and have their EZ curl bar, I think I am good there. IronMaster plates are more than enough for curl weight for me. The Olympic weights are for the larger muscle groups.
Griffin makes some good stuff. I'm lucky enough I don't have any real brand loyalty (and I like to try out other companies). I guess I'd I had loyalty I'd be pretty crappy at these reviews haha
My buddy has one of their first SS bars and that run wasn't the best with how it holds up, especially how you'd expect it to. I think coop has said something similar as well but don't hold me to it
I thought I had a pretty good set up with my four kettlebells, and my pull up and dip bar … after seeing those home gym videos I am feeling kind of shabby. Need to level up 😂
Depends on Space and Budget... and if you have a wife or girl friend will tolerate your stuff taking space.... Landmine are great, I did bike and rower bc the woman likes it too... dumbells, kettlebells, sandbags and Indian clubs can tuck away nice in case you need space for poker night or movie night...
I finally gave up on the spin collar dumbbells, and mine are the old style with the spinning grips. I'm ordering the Rogue Urethane fixed dumbbells one or two pair a month until I get to the top weight that I can handle. I might keep the old school stuff just for single arm rows. That's really all they are good for, and I am sick of the spin collars coming loose.
Still watching: What’s wild I so far I have this all! I just don’t have the loaded dumbbells. Thinking about that since it may be cheaper than getting 95s and 100s in dumbbells? What do you think?
Honestly spit out my coffee laughing during the dumbbell handle segment. Great stuff as always! Binging the whole channel from the beginning and continues to be great. Not attachments but have you done any testing or reviews on "odd" implements like sandbags, hammers, sleds? We can curl them too so it counts right?
Oh no, even the OG videos? Those must be so bad... We've got those all on the list, actually if I don't do my Get RX'd Xebex sled review soon they'll probably kill me but it's hard to keep up with all this stuff!
I use them for rows and other exercises if I need to go over 100lbs. If people don't have those they can be a cheap alternative to fixed dumbbells and even adjustable.
I'll be honest I thought you were being a bit snarky. Hard to tell with comments. Loadable DBs are a love hate thing with gym people. Some people are very passionate about things. I think a lot of this stuff has a place when planned out and used correctly but there's a ton of crap and extra out there too.
Get outta here with that! Don't be telling people they can use things I don't link to! You trying to bankrupt us! Yeah my buddy uses them and they work I just personally dislike them because I don't want (or have) a set of 1" plates and the handles really dig in
@@GlucksGym yes they can dig if you put the bar on your leg. I grew up with standard weights in my house and I bought my first set of loadable dumbbells like 15-16 years ago. I was just a high school kid and it was all I could afford. I still use it today. For budget set up standard weights are great.
Riddle me this: why would one own a curl bar when one could own a *rackable* curl bar? Curently selling my curl bar on ebay, as I now have a rackable curl bar.
Yeah I ain’t mad at ya for having the Rogue curl bar! That was my COVID find of 2020. Found a lady moving marketplace and she let it go for $70 bucks. 💪🏼
Not so sure I am. There's too many companies out there to fit everyone in so unfortunately I really have to fight and pick (so someone gets left out) and some of their stuff I've found to be lacking / mediocre in quality lately. If you're thinking something specifically let me know and I can look into it but some of it is... Shall we say very similar to what others offer?
@@GlucksGym their curl bars specifically, some of their benches are also very cheap for their quality. I only know this from going to their outlet where they they also have a museum. If you're ever near south central PA you should definitely stop and check it out. Their online marketing isn't very great.
I don't live in PA but I do have family here so I'll definitely have to check that out. I'll see what I can get my hands on from York that I haven't already tried.
I don’t know why anyone would waste their money on these fancy curl bars. Seems like they’re all basically the same, unless you’re crazy picky and have way more money than you know what to do with.
There's a quality difference that's for sure but I do agree in some regards that people can go crazy with their purchases. Idc what they buy as long as they're happy with it!
@@TonyTrupp I've been trying to keep three more streamlined by only mentioning my top pick (or at least top for most) and budget picks. Titan makes some decent budget items.
@@GlucksGym lol if that leads to an additional video reviewing the dip attachment I’m all for it! Plus it helps get their company’s name out there. And hypothetically speaking if it’s Gluck Certified that means maybe Mutant Metals could post your review on their site. ;)
What should I cover in the next upgrade your gym video? Let me know!
cardio equipment!
Resistance bands. Still need to pick up a decent set.
I think I've covered those about 5x in these various build videos haha. Unless you mean a completely resistance band video?
@@GlucksGym Ill check it out, thanks.

I love this channel!

Enjoyed the video, especially the opening....clever.
Haha that's all Wynie again. I thought we might've went a bit far with it! Thanks
I never see anyone talk about xmark! My barbell is the xmark lumberjack and I love it!

@@GlucksGym nice one, I'm fairly new here, but flying through your videos so I'm sure I'll come across those soon enough.
I'm glad you like them! Hope they help
Great video Gluck. Vulcan makes a great curl bar as well, though I haven't seen Rep's in hand.
Tons of good companies but I've tried to narrow it down to my budget picks and top picks.
Great review bro 👌 and loving the new logo mate 👏👏

After spending days filming and editing my latest video (comes out Thursday) this is honestly exactly what I need.

@@GlucksGym we must be old dudes lmao
Wynie wrote the intro 😇
“once a week…” Gluck found out how often I exercise. But my home gym is in great shape. That is what counts.
Got the Rogue Curl bar because I use that constantly
Mines is coming today! 😎
Thanks for the video, I have some things to look for now. (3 plate dip + 190 is 335 btw)
Did I not do the math in the video? I honestly forget what I do and say once I publish it. I know the weight capacity is 500 pounds
😂 intro 👍. Another great video mate.
That intro is all Wynie haha
I have a land mine and spotter arms and straps. Since I have IronMaster adjustable dumbbells and have their EZ curl bar, I think I am good there. IronMaster plates are more than enough for curl weight for me. The Olympic weights are for the larger muscle groups.
Guess I'll need to do a video that goes even further down the rabbit hole
@@GlucksGym The rabbit hole is deep.
Good Video, thank you :)
Thank you!
Loadable dummy handles are great for benching when you dont have a spotter. Easy to dump if you get stuck.
I don’t use collars when I bench so that if I get stuck I can just slide the plates off.
I can't believe I got that movie reference lol.
Yes! Blame Wynie
Rogue EZ curl has the best angles and typical Rogue quality.
No complaints with the Rogue bar over here though I could use another curl bar...
Coop? is that you? /s
As I look at them getting ready to buy, I though the same thing. Rogue has bigger bends in the angles. Sounds like this is the one for me.
Considering I just got Griffin GR3 rack, their stainless steel barbell, and adjustable bench....I'll probably get their curl bar once it's in stock.
Griffin makes some good stuff. I'm lucky enough I don't have any real brand loyalty (and I like to try out other companies). I guess I'd I had loyalty I'd be pretty crappy at these reviews haha
I got a pair of Gorilla Strength adjustable axle dumbbells off amazon. I find the 1.9" grip to be exceptionally comfortable.
REP stainless steel not holding up? More info please!
My buddy has one of their first SS bars and that run wasn't the best with how it holds up, especially how you'd expect it to. I think coop has said something similar as well but don't hold me to it
Dude where is my car référence are the best reference
I thought I had a pretty good set up with my four kettlebells, and my pull up and dip bar … after seeing those home gym videos I am feeling kind of shabby. Need to level up 😂
Hahaha whatever works for you!

Landmine are great, I did bike and rower bc the woman likes it too... dumbells, kettlebells, sandbags and Indian clubs can tuck away nice in case you need space for poker night or movie night...
If you can't get powerhooks there is always shermworks ;)
Bells of steel have a good curl bar too. 130$ shipped to my door
Yeah there's just too many companies for these videos so I try to limit it to my top pics and budget pics.
I finally gave up on the spin collar dumbbells, and mine are the old style with the spinning grips. I'm ordering the Rogue Urethane fixed dumbbells one or two pair a month until I get to the top weight that I can handle. I might keep the old school stuff just for single arm rows. That's really all they are good for, and I am sick of the spin collars coming loose.
I was never a fan of spin lock. The things always dug in and were too sharp but to each their own. Urethane DBs are very nice
How about a video on recovery? (apps, bands, rollers, massage guns, etc.)
Hmmm I hadn't considered that one. Thanks for the idea
Still watching:
What’s wild I so far I have this all!
I just don’t have the loaded dumbbells. Thinking about that since it may be cheaper than getting 95s and 100s in dumbbells? What do you think?
Oh man that's tough. If you could have both that's obviously best but loadable are definitely cheaper and useful. What are your dumbbells up to atm?
@@GlucksGym they go to 90s!
Honestly spit out my coffee laughing during the dumbbell handle segment. Great stuff as always! Binging the whole channel from the beginning and continues to be great.

@@BrandonTLuong AHHH nice
Finally!
You were waiting for the next suggestions?
I’m looking for loadable db handles and those fringe ones are out of stock. Anyone know how often they usually come back?
Why do you use the loadable dumbbells when you have a full set of fixed?
I use them for rows and other exercises if I need to go over 100lbs. If people don't have those they can be a cheap alternative to fixed dumbbells and even adjustable.
@@GlucksGym ok, that makes sense. Just starting to build my gym, really want the Ironmasters as a total solution, but fat chance of that happening.
I'll be honest I thought you were being a bit snarky. Hard to tell with comments. Loadable DBs are a love hate thing with gym people. Some people are very passionate about things. I think a lot of this stuff has a place when planned out and used correctly but there's a ton of crap and extra out there too.
@@GlucksGym Lol, no not snarky, just was really curious. So the question for me is, I guess, Nuobell or loadable dbs and wait for Ironmasters.
@@originaljunglist93 there's some good adjustables they were just never my thing. I do cover them in a few videos
BUT I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT CARDIO!!!
That's when you workout faster
Instead of the Curl Bar, you can just get an arm blaster and you can still use your straight bars. Probably cheaper.
Cheaper yes but I'd rather have the curl bar because of the versatility and I don't find arm blasters to be particularly comfortable
@@GlucksGym That’s fair.
damn new intro? new logo? new header?
