How-to and Reviews
The most detailed, unbiased and honest review.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Best review by far. Actually does lifts while explaining. Just bought 1.
Glad you found it helpful! Enjoy your new cage!
Practically perfect review! A little monotone, but I love that you hit so many helpful and important points without a lot of unnecessary or repetitious dialogue. I appreciate that you showed where you got it, what the price was when you shopped for it (so we can compare if it's still a good value), why you chose it over other products, the setup, actual use cases for the equipment, good and bad ad-ons, pros and cons, etc. Clear, concise, and one of the most helpful reviews I've seen on youtube! I'll be buying today. Thanks!
Thanks. I appreciate the time that you put into the feedback, and the feedback itself. Glad you found it helpful, happy to help!
great review man. i just orded it as my first rack ever, it seems to to do all that i need. thanks for taking the time to do this
Awesome! Congrats on your rack! It does the job. I’m still happy with mine after more than 2 years.
I have a lot of reviews for attachments for this rack in my “fitness reviews” playlist that you may find helpful.
If you have the room for it, I definitely recommend prioritizing the cable pulley system. It’s a game changer! ruclips.net/video/BqnVBkzAifk/видео.html
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial thanks! i will tjeck the playlist out
I really appreciate your detail and the things you have chosen to point out. It is like you read my mind and answered those questions.
Funny we are the same height and weight range, so you even answered that question about pull-ups for my height.
Thank you!
Well, that worked out great! Glad it helped!
I was trying to decide betweenthis cage and the hulk cage. You answered my questions and brought up additional points that i had not considered making my decision cut and and dry. Thanks!
That’s great to hear! Glad you found it helpful!
I just bought this today. so glad I found this review. makes me happy with my purchase and cant wait to put it together.
Congratulations on your new cage! I don’t think you will regret it!
One of the best reviews I’ve seen!
Thanks, glad it was helpful!
Bro the amount of work you put in 😅! Nice job man!
Thanks, I appreciate it! Glad you enjoyed it!
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial yessir it was super helpful, just ordered this. I’m super excited!!!
@@ChaCrizzle awesome! Congrats on your power cage! I have several other review videos revolving around this cage in my fitness videos playlist. I definitely recommend prioritizing the cable pulley attachment if you have room for it. It was a game changer.
I've had mine for two years in May. Best investment I've made. I got the lat pulldown part coming soon.
Awesome! I think you’re going to love the lat pull down. I got it about a year ago, and it was game changer. It’s probably the thing I use the most in the home gym. I did a full review on it about six months ago. Still love it.
Aside from the video where he drops 705 lbs on the safety bar, this is the best review of this product that there is. I haven't been able to make up my mind on power cages until now, but I'll be buying this one.
I’m glad the video was helpful! I’ve had mine for 3 years now it it does the job just fine. No complaints.
I definitely recommend adding on the lat pulley system. Absolute garbage changer. It’s pretty my most prized/used piece of equipment.
What a great video, honestly. Wish more reviews were like this
Thanks, I appreciate it!
I bought the HulkFit and I love it, but I wish I had seen this before I had purchased it. The 2.5" keeps me from buying what fits most power racks. I purchased the same J Hooks that you have but they don't fit so I'm going to have to send them back and get the 2"x3" with the adjustable knob. Thank you for making this video and clearing things up for people.
Thanks for sharing, I appreciate it!
This is the best review I have seen about this rack on RUclips. Thank you for going into detail. I will try to get one myself👍Cheers
Thanks, I appreciate it. Glad you found it helpful!
Amazing review!
I appreciate it! Glad it helped!
Thank you so much! I've been debating getting this cage vs something like a REP or FringeSport cage because they had a bigger name. But this helped me make my decision to purchase this cage and saves me a couple hundred bucks
That’s great to hear, glad it helped!
BEST REVIEW EVER!!!!
Thanks, I appreciate it! Thanks for commenting and happy to help.
Hey good review. Bought cause of you. You influenced my choice tonight on 4/27/23 and you didn’t even know. Ain’t that weird.
Thanks for the comment, I appreciate it. I make these videos to ho hopefully help people out and I’m glad it was helpful!
I’ve had this cage for over 2 years now and still recommend it. No regrets. The price was affordable, the footprint is compact, and it does everything it needs to do.
I did recently add on the cable pulley system. It is a game changer and I should have prioritized it way sooner. I did a review video on it about 2 months ago.
Congratulations on your purchase! I hope you enjoy the cage!
I bought this rack about 4 years ago and love it. There are lots of attachments available for it. Great rack
Nice! I agree. I’ve had it for about 2 years. Recently added the pulley cable kit. Should have done that a long time ago!
This is a great review. Really appreciate the thoroughness of the review. I have a similar rack in my basement. The only thing to add for anyone looking for a rack like this and this is related to his comment about the safety bars when benching. Some racks have the hole spacing closer together allowing for more precise placement of the safety catches. Just something to keep in mind.
That’s a good point. Thanks for sharing!
Wow I really appreciate your reviews! Very well done
Glad you’re enjoying them! Thanks for the comment!
There's a very good reason for the people in the pictures to be working out outside of the rack.
It's easier to photoshop that way.
Great review video brother! This is the most informative one that convinced me to buy it.
It’s been a good cage and does everything it needs to do. I think you’ll be happy with it.
I did add the lat pulldown kit to it which is awesome. That’s probably the thing I use the most in the gym. I recommend prioritizing it if you’re interested in it. It’s a game changer.
I'll def consider it! I just saw your other video of the SYL Fitness Gym Cable Pulley System. Is the Fitness Reality Lat Pulldown Kit worth the extra cost? The difference in price is pretty huge $25 vs $250. @@HowtoandReviewsOfficial
@@AskJeeves49 for me personally, it was absolutely worth it.
The SYL Fitness is a functional workout overall, but there is a lot of setup time and it definitely has its limitations. There is no low pull position. It’s the $25 option for a reason.
The Fitness Reality kit is light years better. It also makes the cage more stable. I did a full review video on it.
ruclips.net/video/BqnVBkzAifk/видео.html If you plan to invest more money into the home gym, I would put this on the short list.
dude, much thanks. awesome and detailed review. you are the man!
Glad you found it helpful!
This is very helpful. Thank you very much.
Glad you found it helpful!
Great review, I watched so many reviews on these racks waiting patiently for my Ethos’s rack, which finally came about a month ago, debated between a Rogue or a Ethos rack and went with the Ethos’s so I didn’t have to pay for shipping, I really wanted something heavier than most of the less expensive racks to attach a TRX strap to, I feel very confident the Ethos rack isn’t going to tip over with my weight pulling on this thing. Very happy with my purchase other than it being 3x3 uprights, finding additional attachments are very hard or maybe not even possible.
Nice. I’ve looked at the Ethos rack in person at Dick’s Sporting Goods. It is very nice. Definitely a step up.
I have come across several 3x3 j hooks while shopping for 2x2 j hooks for myself. Not sure about other types of attachments though.
Dude this isn't for an ethos rack its fitness reality idiot
GREAT review. On point with very helpful information and tips and tricks for daily use. thumbs up!
Glad it was helpful!
Fantastic review! Thank you! Enjoyed the humor as well.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Best detailed review! Thank you sir!
Thanks! Glad it was helpful!
Fantastic review video. Thank you for this!
No problem! Glad you found it helpful!
You got it all covered bro! thanks !
Awesome! Glad it helped!
I am really curious to see how this matched up with the REP Fitness PR1100
amzn.to/3nFH6RE
They do look similar. However, the PR1100 does not appear to have a standard tube size (the holes look larger than 1”) so accessories are an issue, the rear lower support is on the floor (could interfere with bench legs), and it costs more.
But, I do prefer the j cup design.
Between the two, I would personally definitely select the 810XLT.
The standard tube size (2”x2” with 1” hole) is a big advantage. I currently have accessories from 5 different manufacturers. Lots of options!
Great Review much appreciated
Thank you for the video, it was very informative.
Glad it was helpful!
Awesome review, thanks 👍
Glad you found it helpful!
Thank you!!!! 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽
Glad it helped!
If you are interested in this cage, I added the lat pulley system a couple years later. It’s an absolute game changer, and I highly recommend it if you can work it in. It cost less to buy them together than it does to buy them separate.
Very informative video! Thank you!
Great to hear. Glad you found it helpful!
Great review. Just ordered mine and it's only $199 at the moment.
Nice! Glad it helped, and congratulations on your power cage!
I use mine regularly. No regrets.
I’ve also posted several review videos for different attachments that I’ve used with this cage. Some good and some bad. They should all be in the “Fitness” playlist.
Nice video. I think you have helped convince me in purchasing the cage. Do you have recommendation for bar and plate sets? Thanks!
Glad you found it helpful!
I personally own the Fitness Gear 300 lb set from Dicks Sporting Goods, which includes 300 lbs of plates and an Olympic barbell. I selected this based on acceptable quality (I’m not buying cheap junk) and “best bang for the buck.” A review video is below.
I plan to do a 1 year update video on this set next month, but it has held up great and I have no regrets. The cost has increased since the review (was $300, now $400) but I think it is probably still the best value.
If cost is not a major driver for you, it’s worth looking around. A drawback of the fitness gear set is that the 45 lb plates are slightly smaller in diameter than standard 45 lb plates, so it throws off deadlifts by 1/2 inch.
Also, if you are lifting on a concrete floor (garage) you will want rubber mats under the plates, or rubber/bumper plates for deadlifts.
ruclips.net/video/6fdaZz_IwOk/видео.html
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial Thanks again for the detailed response! I look forward to your 1 year update!
Great cage review. Off topic, what mats are you using lol
Funny you asked that. They were some inexpensive foam puzzles square mats. Not recommended. I’m currently replacing them with commercial grade rubber flooring. I will be posting a full video in a week or two. I emptied the home gym over the last two days and am going to start laying the new floor tomorrow.
Dude I love you for this review. you are hones and genis. I want to understand if I am looking to also to use cross cable, and pulley system for lates and row and tricep pull down exercises? would any accessories fit to work on this cage ? or do you suggest to buy separate machine for that. really loved this review man you are awesome
Thanks, I appreciate it!
I think I covered your questions when I responded to your comment on my cable attachments review video.
There are a variety of universal cable pulley systems that will work with this power cage and fulfill most of your needs. I’m using a 1 pulley system ( ruclips.net/video/9RMxhhEzL0M/видео.html ). I do plan to try a 2 pulley in the future.
This was the best review I have ever watched. I’m subscribed now!!!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
That's a good idea with the foam pads. I deliver for a plastic place so I could probably get some Teflon or other heavy wear plastic to put on
For sure. I stuck the foam tape on temporary because I had a bunch of it and it was convenient, but plastic is the way to go.
The replacement hooks have UHMW pads.
Teflon doesn’t have as good of impact and wear resistance, but it will definitely do the job!
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial ok sweet. Ya, incan get uhmw too
@@lightemup1023 Nice! Yeah, if you have the option, go with UHMW for sure.
So excited got a bench and this on prime day
Awesome! Congrats on your new power cage! I’ve had mine for 2.5 years now and it’s been great.
I have several other gym equipment reviews that revolve around this cage in my “Reviews-Fitness” playlist if interested.
The Yes4All j-cups and the lat pulley kit bring it to the next level.
Thanks dude! From 🇫🇷
Glad you found it helpful!
Best review ever!
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Well thought out review, I like your MacGyver hacks.
Thanks, I appreciate it!
I have this one too and I love it!
Awesome, that’s great to hear! I’ve been using mine regularly for well over a year and still have no regrets.
thanks for the measurements :)
i picked one up used ,thanks
Awesome! Congrats on your purchase. I’m still using mine!
The purpose of squatting outside the cage is to make it easier to finish your last rep because if you don't you might severely injure yourself.
I think people squat outside the cage because it looks better in pictures and videos (no obstructions). Maybe it is a mental boost to push harder, knowing there is no fail safe.
But squatting outside the cage to “finish your last rep without severely injuring yourself” is not something that I recommend.
Yes! Finally, with my own squat cage at home I can curl in the squat rack. All! I! Want! MUAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!
Freedom!
this cage looks strong, thanks you
Glad you found it helpful!
Dude if everything in life was explained in your style of speaking I would be the smartest man in the world.
LOL. Thanks, I appreciate it! Doing my best to publish quality videos that help people out!
The holes are spaced 3" apart on this guy. I was curious if you had any issues with bench press height and safety pins with the holes being 3" apart. This is one of the things I'm debating right now. Go with this one or get a cage with 2" hole spacings. The downside is all the 2" spacing cages I've found are $400+, so this fitness reality cage is definitely cheaper. Just not sure if the hole spacing feels limiting. You're 6'1 and I'm 6'0" so we're close in height. Thanks!
I have owned two different benches at different heights and was able to find a safety bar position that worked for both.
But, there is a risk that it might not work out.
I personally would not let that stop me from purchasing it.
HOWEVER, Purchase the right piece of equipment for you! You don’t want to regret your purchased for years as you use it every day because you tried to save $100.
Thanks dude
Glad it helped!
I love mine! I lifted it with 6x6 so I can fully hang with out feet touching the floor
Nice!
Where do you put weights on a power rack?
I built custom weight plate storage racks.
ruclips.net/video/1hX8RLysqKQ/видео.html
Y can purchase posts that attach to the rack.
amzn.to/3RHMWgJ
However, in my experience, you can inky use one set at the bottom. Using multiple sets from the top to bottom will block the holes and you will not be able to to use the other attachments.
Will this work with the AB-3100 Adjustable REP Bench as it has a T bar in the back.
Looking at pictures of the bench, there is a potential for interference. The horizontal crossmember at the bottom of the cage is 10 inches off of the ground. Not sure how tall the T bar on the bench is.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial it will hit the 10 inches for sure.
Would the weight storage pins with 45s get in the way of bench press?
No, that will not cause a problem if the plate holder is low to the floor. But there is only room for one. If you add more above it, they will definitely be in the way.
Why this one is always out of stock, where can i buy it?
It’s sold out!? That’s wild!
I noticed you were doing squats with the Jcups on the inside front posts. You said you're 6'1", can you do squats with the Jcups on the back post or does your head hit the top rear cross bar?
With the j-cups on the inside of the rear posts, my head does hit the rear crossbar. The crossbar is 68 inches off of the ground. Can’t do squats off of the rear posts.
I also now have the cable pulley attachment installed, which I highly recommend. I waited way too long to get it.
ruclips.net/video/0gYmG-j_CY8/видео.html
Excellent video. Thank you for sharing. Are you using a 7ft bar or 6ft? I need to know if a 6ft will fit on the rack? Thanks again.
Glad you found it helpful!
I am using a 7 foot bar.
It appears that a 6 foot bar should just barely work. The outside dimension of the rack is 45” and the shaft length on the 6 foot bar that I looked up as a reference is 45.75”. That is 0.75” of clearance.
I personally would not be comfortable with that, but technically it should work.
Definitely double check the shaft length on your specific 6 ft bar! It likely varies between manufacturers.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial awesome!! I appreciate the feedback. I may need a 7ft bar. Thank you
@@dq664 depends on the specs for the bar you’re looking at, I’m only using a 6’ bar in mine and I’ve got 4.25” total clearance side to side. Best bet would be to take a tape measure with ya when ya buy your bar just in case…
Can you please list the tools you used?
All of the bolts and nuts use the same size tool which is nice. 17mm.
Have you done any weighted pull ups or ring dips from the pull up bar? Do you know the capacity of the bar?
The cage is advertised with an 800 lb weight capacity.
I have done weighted pull-ups with 35 lbs. I weigh 200 lbs (in the morning, fasted), so 210 with clothes and food.
So personally, I load the pull-up bar with 245 lbs. No issues at all.
As a mechanical engineer, I think it could hold 2,000 lbs easy. I may run the numbers later for fun.
Thanks for the reply. As long as it can hold 400 lbs I'm good. By far the best review of the power rack on youtube.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial I got the rack now and it's pretty solid. The pull-up bar is definitely capable of heavy weight. Due to some spacing issues I'm considering removing the bottom stabilizing bar. How much would this effect the overall sturdiness of the rack? Some half racks have a high capacity and this rack still has the upper stabilizer and the pull up bar holding it in place. Thanks again for the video it was definitely a factor in my decision.
@@chuloCFA Awesome, congratulations on your purchase!
In regard to removing the bottom crossmember, I would be hesitant. It provides the spacing between the vertical posts, and also provides structural rigidity for side to side forces.
Removing it will not reduce the weight capacity. The vertical square tubes bear all of the weight.
I would say to remove the lower crossmember and try it. See how rigid it feels, and if it is acceptable. If it is questionable, I would relocate the bar up or down a little by drilling some new clearance holes through the vertical square tubes for the mounting bolts.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial I'll give it a try. Thanks for the info
Great video, what floor mat would you recommend to place below the cage?
I am personally using some 1/4” thick floor mat that I got a great deal on. It does the job, but it’s thin and can bubble up. I would definitely recommend something thicker.
I have had a couple people recommend “horse stall mats” from Tractor Supply Company as a great lower cost alternative to gym mats. Something to look into.
Found them, Thank you! I ordered this cage and 1000 SuperMax bench and I’m excited for my new home setup. FYI to anyone doing the same, I found that it’s cheaper to order the cage and bench separately on Amazon instead of the combo. It’s the same cage and bench but around $80 cheaper just for ordering individually. Stay Healthy!
@@djcamargo001 Awesome! Congratulations on your new power cage!
What is the diameter of the safety bars? Was hoping to find a way to slide PVC piping or something to protect my barbell during failed attempts
They are 0.982”
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial thanks. This was a great review and I’m more confident about picking mine up. Appreciate the dimensions you shared
nice.. what bench do you have??
Fitness Gear Pro from Dick’s Sporting Goods. I recommend it.
I cover it somewhat in this video:
ruclips.net/video/lUHDFLBY6is/видео.html
You gonna get the lat pulldown attachment?
I don’t plan to purchase the Fitness Reality lat pull down attachment in the near future. I am currently using this pulley cable system. ruclips.net/video/9RMxhhEzL0M/видео.html
I also have a set of cable attachments from Riggers Fitness that I have been using, which I plan to do a review on in the near future. amzn.to/3bvNpQk
damaging the paint ... that means, it is being used. Nothing a little rattle can work can't fix.
I am looking for a pair of these hooks 4:43 . Any idea where I might get them?
Those are the hooks that come with the cage. I personally have not seen them available independently.
You can try contacting Fitness Realty customer service, but Fitness Reality was recently sold, and their customer service seems to be less than desirable. I contacted them and never got a response.
Maybe try Facebook Marketplace.
Another option is different J-Hooks. If you’re actually using these to rack a barbell, they are not ideal and there are way better alternatives.
Good luck! I hope you find them!
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial Thank you for responding. The reason I need these are because of the "peg" configuration. I just bought a Titan SSB and the space between the cambers is 48". My Rack is 49 inches and the J-Hooks that came with it extend all the way to the edge. I believe these "pegs" will allow the SSB to sit in the rack, as they reduce the width a little. I have looked everywhere that the Fitness Reality rack is sold, but these hooks don't appear available; however. I believe I can find a suitable alternative. Thanks again!!!
Update - I just received the Titan SSB, It FITS with room to spare! NO need for special hooks. Thanks again.
@@williamdejeffrio9701 Awesome, that’s great news!
I also have that safety squad bar! Here’s a video I made for it:
ruclips.net/video/rkwYkQHSDiI/видео.html
Good work brutha
Thanks, I appreciate it!
Can I ask what kind for bench your are using?
I’m using the Fitness Gear Pro, purchased from Dicks Sporting Goods.
I cover it in minor detail in this video:
ruclips.net/video/lUHDFLBY6is/видео.html
Do you have any recommendations on what type of tarps should i use for this? as having a outside home gym in florida this rack may go quick lol.
I usually get tarps from Harbor Freight because they’re cheap. Probably not the best choice for your needs. Good luck!
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial Thank you
@@workingwithdabois Some thing you may want to look into is “military grade tarps.” When I was in the army, we had heavy duty tarps to cover the armored vehicles. I would definitely recommend those tarps. However, that was 20 years ago and I have no idea who the manufacturer was.
Any recommendations for reliable safety straps that will fit this rack. I have been looking for good 2x2 straps but haven’t had any luck. Would really appreciate if you have any recommendations
Great question. I personally do not have a recommendation. I’ve just been using the safety bars. However, there are definitely some benefits to straps.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial I ended up ordering the T-2 Series Safety Strap from Titan. They are the only one I could find with the measurements. Technically the 3x3 monster straps from rogue could fit even if they’re bigger cause of the way it’s designs but for $200 I’ll save it for when I upgrade later on in life lol.
@@Lobi10879 For sure! You can’t go wrong with the titan strap. That should definitely be a quality product.
Can you flip the pull up bar so its upside down? I am interested in this rack but the bottom of my floor joists are 82 inches high.
Good question! Yes, the pull-up bar can be mounted upside down.
I positioned the rack so it is centered between floor joist. So if my head went to high, it would go in between joists, giving some additional height room. So, that could be an option.
For a sense of scale in the video, the bottom of my floor joists are 95 inches high.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial Thanks it would be pretty tight but it would work. Thanks for your help!
@@jdjd9768 No problem, glad I could help!
No regurts!
This feels like PBS.
Lol. Thanks for watching, I hope you found it helpful!
How high will the pull up bar be when it’s set to low sealing???
If the pull up bar was mounted upside down, it would be 73 inches from the floor.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial perfect thank you so much👍🏾
Do you know if the lateral pull down would also be 73 inches from the floor with them in low ceiling mode?
@@ziggyzach8152 With the pull up bar flipped upside down, the overall height of the cage from the floor to the top is 78.5 inches. The height of the pull up bar would be 73 inches from the floor to the round pull up bar.
If that’s not the dimension you’re looking for, just let me know. It’s no problem.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial I’m referring to the lateral pull down that’s purchased separately
I’m 6’6 would I be too tall for this
I don’t think so.
The measurements that I took are here 4:00
I am 6’1”, and I still have open peg holes above my squat setting, and I have 10” of head clearance below the pull-up bar. There is room for an additional 5” of height.
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial yay! Thanks dood
@@HowtoandReviewsOfficial also I measured my bar clearance and it’s basically 44’ unless I measured wrong, I saw u said in another comment that the clearance would need to be 45.75 minimum. Would it be more worth it to get a different rack than get a different bar
@@ozstewart7650 the outside dimension of the cage is 45.25”, so the the center/handle part of the bar will need to be longer than that. Mine is 54”. I have this bar: ruclips.net/video/6fdaZz_IwOk/видео.html
@@ozstewart7650 Sorry, I didn’t answer your question about a different cage vs a new barbell.
Any power rack/cage will require a 7ft barbell. I believe you have a 6 ft barbell. So, if you want a power cage, you will need to switch to a 7 ft barbell. They are available new at roughly $100 at the lower end, but you can find them for less, and also of course for much more.
How tall is it
Complete dimensions here 3:59
$299 3 years ago, today $999 on Amazon 😂😂😂
For me, it’s still showing as $299 regular price and currently on sale for $249.
But $999 would be crazy. I definitely would not recommend paying $999 for it. Get something else or shop on FB Marketplace.
@HowtoandReviewsOfficial Wish RUclips allowed links so I could show you a screenshot. I'm in Canada 🇨🇦 only one buy option at $999. I'm guessing you are in the US? Even after conversion $249 is MUCH cheaper. My friend bought a used one with a sweet bench & 2 Olympic bars, as well as 600Lbs in plates for $800. He wants to set it up in my place as he has no room.
@@TechWiz1983 Yes, I am in the United States.
Prices are different in Canada. I’ve heard about other product that are priced very differently as well. Very strange.
Algorithm
Appreciated!
You need to get to 245 lbs just as quick as you can.
Just a demo. I can smash 245 no problem. I pretty much always keep two plates on the barbell, so that’s what I went with. Had to remove them for a couple shots because they blocked the view.
I will consider throwing more plates on in the future to look more impressive.
I meant get your body weight to 245.
It was a Mark Rippetoe reference. If you haven't found his channel yet, look him up. He's a great coach and has great instructional videos on the lifts. I'm 53 and lifting more than I ever have because of his instruction.
This is a fantastic video btw. Thanks for posting it.
@@michaeltemple895 I will definitely check out Mark Rippetoe. Thanks, I appreciate it!
