					<description><![CDATA[Like many people, I was getting tired of struggling to re-center my bar on regular J-hooks after every set. That's where these come in, acting as "return rollers" to get the bar re-centered instead of awkwardly grinding the bar against the J-hooks to move it. These particular ones are for the Titan X-3. You can  [...]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Intro to the OPB I bought this bar a month ago and have been using it exclusively since. If you've done any casual browsing for power bars, you know about this one. Ever since the Ohio Power Bar - now called simply the OPB - appeared in 2014 it's been the favorite of countless lifters  [...]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[The Blues City Power Bar is Titan's USA-made deep-knurled power bar. I got a hold of it and learned a few things about it that I'm sharing today. I bought it on their website during a sale for $270 + tax. Regular price is $300. Currently that puts it somewhere in the middle of the  [...]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[https://youtu.be/e2DK8FdUUpE Here's Benjamin's video review of Bells of Steel's Weightlifting Chains that we got last month. Chains are a fun way to add accommodating resistance to barbell exercises. In addition to barbell work, they can be used for bodyweight movements with the chains draped over your body to add the same kind of accommodating resistance  [...]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[https://youtu.be/vS-4gpcGxkQ Benjamin reviewed this Cerakote Utility Bar from Bells of Steel after trying it out for a few weeks. He compares it to the Black Zinc Rogue 2.0 Bar and to the Cerakote Bella Bar, both of which he has owned for a few years. As with Bells of Steel's original Black Zinc Utility Bar,  [...]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[For 4 years now I've had the Titan Fitness X-3 Squat Stand in my home gym. Time to share my thoughts on it! Titan's current 2022 model has a number of improvements over my 2018 model that I'll be going over. The model I bought is X-3 Short. Most specs and features here apply to  [...]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Intro Update Oct 2022: Since writing, the FB-4000 bench has been discontinued. The FB-5000 is the current model being sold and is generally better in all respects. I have revised this with added attention towards how my findings on the FB-4000 apply or don't apply to the FB-5000 so that you have a good picture  [...]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Intro This Ironmaster OB 86 bar has flown under the radar. Ironmaster is most known for their heavy-duty adjustable dumbbells. I thought i'd get my hands on the bar and determine whether people should be considering it. It's $239, which puts it in the price range of some fairly respectable "budget bars" that are better  [...]]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[This is such a niche problem that I didn't expect anyone had created an off-the-shelf solution. Here's an example of what some of us have dealt with. My Titan X-3 squat stand's J-cups were only mostly protected with UHMW liners as shown above. The inside front lip is not protected at all. I can roll  [...]]]></description>

I ran out of room on my bar deadlifting with bumpers, and I needed some thinner iron plates to get me to 400 lbs (eventually). As luck would have it, I had just  [...]]]></description>
