Amen on #5 and life health. Anything that can make you feel healthier in day to day living, is a worthy item to buy! Great video and love the sense of humor!
Thanks for removing all the innuendo. I actually watch a lot of videos while working out with my 12 year old twin daughters and it’s nice to not have to answer their questions about “holes”, “stiffness”, etc or have them look at me weird. Seriously appreciate it.
Just wanted to say that your comment about why you train was really wholesome. I feel the same way. I used to compete in powerlifting, but that really isn't healthy, and after having our daughter, i just completely shifted gears to train more for longevity since I worry about my parents alot too.

Interesting take. I have a home garage gym myself and suffered a shoulder injury in my youth. I couldn’t handle doing barbell bench and switched to dumbbells. I found the hand positioning and shoulder stabilizing aspects of it eliminated the pain. Now I am looking at this multi grip barbell and thinking it mig it just be next on the list. Also, interesting take on the ares. I was going to get one, but I have found that it’s cheaper to buy second hand commercial gym equipment and set it up. Currently sporting a cybex lat pull-down and then I have a life fitness cable machine. Both of these units combined cost me the same as the ares. Also the ares, when combine with a rack, does have downsides on that it can take away your ability to do things like ISO lever arms or really using the front posts. It’s better as a stand alone unit. GHD is amazing! I can’t live without it.
Great video. All great equipment. My top 5 are a little more basic. 1- power bar 2- power blocks 3- AB5200 4- sled 5- Bluetooth speaker to bump music during workout.
