🆕Updated Bells of Steel Curl Bars

Bells of Steel has updated/added four curl bar options to their lineup. There are two “industrial options," where one is rackable & the other is not. Plus two e-coat/bright zinc ones where one is rackable & the other is not.

Additional Notes:

  • While I personally think the upgrade to rackable is worth the additional cost, some do prefer the tighter feel of an EZ curl bar.

  • The cerakote coating will include a better knurl feel than the e-coat, which is incredible for being rust resistant, but does dull it quite a bit.

🦵Squatober Coming Soon

This is the 9th annual campaign for Squatober. It is a very fun and challenging month where @penandpaperstrengthapp provides a strength training template for the world to back squat daily, along with other great exercises.

Lifters from all over the world join, and it seems to be growing each year.

Product Ideas from Chat GPT, Eleiko vs. AbMat, Jake/Adams Most Used Items, Home Gym Entrepreneurs, and MORE is available on Spotify, Apple, YouTube, or wherever you listen to podcasts.

@NoFate247, @TheKurtlocker, and @flexmarksthespot all hopped on the roundtable to discuss:

  • (0:41) Someone other than REP will have the best product releases over the next year?

  • (4:16) The home gym community has peaked. It will not get much larger.

  • (8:55) Product knockoffs are happening all around us. Why do some upset the home gym community while most get no attention?

  • (14:58) What is the worst part of being a content creator?

  • (26:24) What product have you been using a lot lately that more people should know about?

  • (30:38) What product is #1 on your wish list?

Find it on YouTube or wherever you listen to podcasts.

We reposted @ryan_rep’s adjustable dumbbell teaser, where there was quite a bit of negative feedback & most simply wanted to see the cost.

He followed it up with another post showcasing that there actually wasn’t much plastic (plates are cast iron), 5-50 is designed for the average home gym owner, explained how the switch worked, and more.

If the price is right, I think these will be a good option for a lot of people.
