I think you def have something going here with this style video, the right length, energy and great info on what you are so passionate about these days. Solid work and love hearing my hometown Wu!
Camera slider looks really good mate, I think it’s been a great addition. And I hate to say that the rack looks much tidier without the arms on it haha.
@@BasementBrandoni was checking reviews and came across this comment. Yes i see a used one for 250$ (like new ) and thinkkng to buy. Will this bar good for all lifts (swuat/bench/rows/shoulderpress) ? One bar for all ? Also I use versa grip normally as I have sweaty palm so sharpness is not a big issue for me. Just want to know the thickness is compatible for all lifts
Looking kinda like Kyle Shanahan with the flat bill cap 😂 Not a bad look though! Solid session! I love those smooth finish tiles from Rogue. I'd really like to use them as flooring if they weren't so expensive.
So what's the best overall bar that you have and what's the BEST bar you would recommend to someone who wants to make a home gym on a budget and is there a review about it?
This really dives down to personal preference and circumstances, but I do usually point people towards an OPB for a few reasons. You can have your pick of sleeve thickness, finishes, knurling aggressiveness, it's made in the USA, built well, has a good warranty, and is priced fairly.
With the aggro 2 have you noticed any discomfort squatting? The OBP doesnt bother my skin, but I was thinking, if it gets more aggressive, it might not be comfortable on the neck under a heavy load.
I have just turned 30 today. Im the market for a bar. I can't decide between eleiko ipf training bar or rogue 2x aggro. Eleiko is £130 more expensive when I apply my discount from my federation. Is it worth the extra money? Or should I go rogue?
I do not think the Eleiko is worth it for most people. The exceptions in my opinion are unless you just really want the bar, or want the bar used in IPF worlds.
I went for rogue aggro 2x. I have a wide rack like you and the wider sleeves ultimately win it for me. Pretty sure the bar will last last me a lifetime anyway.
Dude loving the energy for this workout. You can tell you’re enjoying your programming right now!
I know I can be pretty negative about my own training in general so really trying to keep positive.

Thanks Joe, these are a lot easier for me to film.

Thanks my dude, helps break up all the static stuff
I can’t do a flat brimmed cap, this has been a point of discussion. I gotta go with a dad hat.😂
Just gonna say it, flat brims are not cool. 🤷♀️
Just bend the brim - then you get all the cool hats without the sore forehead haha
Yeah I'm not sure I can either.
My hansu PB should be here on Monday. Pumped to get my hands on it. Thanks for the input!
Awesome did you get the SS or the bright zinc?
Decided to go with the bright zinc. Price was too good
Solid work...I only box squat now It gives me a safe place to squat to after having hips replaced...Love to see accessory work!!
I do like it as it helps reinforce better movement patterns for myself.
Good session. Moved a lot of weight. That aggro 2 bar was a grab bag steal!
Unfortunately I bought it 2nd hand, so it wasn't at grab bag pricing, but still a lot better than buying new!

Brandon seemed way more hyped this episode haha. But that hat in a trucker style would be dope.
Will see what I can do
Putting in good work. Both those sets of plates look so good haha 🙂
I feel bad I don't use the Gymway Elite bumpers more as those look great too 😅
Your videos made me sign up for
Juggernaut AI and working towards my first meet ! 🙌🏽
Hell yeah, let’s go!

Hah still don't think I can pull it off, the search continues
Looking like progress is being made!
🤞
Looks fresh man!
Thanks for taking a look!
I have a Genesis Jack Pro on order. Been waiting a long time for it to be available for ordering.
It's great!
@@BasementBrandon Even the one side Genesis jack is great, but I just want to simplify with the bigger one.
So what's the best overall bar that you have and what's the BEST bar you would recommend to someone who wants to make a home gym on a budget and is there a review about it?
Probably an Ohio power bar.
This really dives down to personal preference and circumstances, but I do usually point people towards an OPB for a few reasons. You can have your pick of sleeve thickness, finishes, knurling aggressiveness, it's made in the USA, built well, has a good warranty, and is priced fairly.
Enjoyed the hangout!
Thanks my dude!
Looking lean brother! Nice bars too, esp that Hansu!
Thanks my dude!

I don't think it's too bad, but then again I don't find the 3x that bad after owning for awhile either.
You almost have me talked into that Hansu SS powerbar. So close to pulling the trigger.
Was a lot more appealing before it went up the $150 or so 😭
@@BasementBrandon that’s why I was thinking you would just sell me yours at an extremely discounted rate. 😂
I guess I’ll just have to buy the Moby Dick bar instead. Basically the same. 😂

Brandon is Titan Fitness. Confirmed.
🎯🎯😂
😂
have you done a review on the Hansu ss power bar?
I haven't but should
@@BasementBrandon that would be great, I just picked up the bare steel ipf bar, and if I like it will grab the stainless version
you can always steam the brim to curve it.
Ah curving isn't a problem!
Dollar Dollar Bill yooooooooo, love it......damn, we are old
Diversify yo bonds!
We call that a Nickle hat, looks like it got hit in the face with a bag of nickles :) Like these laid back videos with the sweet soundtracks
aw man
You can pull the hat off, but at a certain age, flat bill hats scream "I'm looking for 6 motivated guys to join my real estate investing bootcamp".
Hah I def prob fit that age group at 42
Did you switch all your plates? Do you use those rogues exclusively now?
nope, I typically use these rogues for deadlift and the strengthco for everything else
Need to work on that finger jacking game, B! Great video as always!
I've been out of it too long. Time to dive back in.
@@BasementBrandon 🤣🤣🤣

mate sex jokes were on fire in this vid haha!
Just letting it flow through me.
How in the world did you end up with a grab bag 3x AND 2x ago bar.....
I bought them off people. Paid more than grab bag prices, but the bars were pretty much flawless.
@@BasementBrandon Thank you for responding.
Shaolin in da house!! Wu-tang!!
Protect yo neck
Tried comp deadlift then I tore my pecker off!
😂
That hat though...please don’t keep doing that 😂
😅
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
🫡
Flat brim hat? Say it ain’t so…
😂
I'll try anything once... mostly.
Two fingers strong, but not longer one finger strong… mhm, getting old sucks, isn’t?
Just need some more practice.
I actually really like the hat. If the stitch work was tightened up, it would be a 10 / 10 imo
appreciate it!
