1 - Drop Pads

3 - Squat Box
Improved squat depth and stronger quads are just a Squat Box away. Our squat boxes are designed with seven adjustable height levels to teach accurate squatting technique and help you to get into a deeper squat position, resulting in greater quad strength.
4 - Single Leg Squat Stand
The Bulgarian split squat is an essential exercise to improve single leg strength and target those glutes. However they are often neglected because finding a bench the right height is not easy and often results in the exercise becoming uncomfortable and ineffective. With the Single Leg Squat Stand you are able to adjust the height of the bar, making it easy to get into the right position and develop your single leg strength.
5 - Sandbags
If you are looking for a highly versatile piece of equipment to improve your strength look no further than sandbags. Sandbags can be used to train every muscle group, including the core and stabilizing muscles. Sandbags are also fantastic for functional training as they are able to be used in all three movement planes which most exercises do not.

7 - Wrist Roller
Get that burning sensation in your forearms, improve your grip strength and get bigger forearms. The Wrist Roller works both the flexor and extensor muscles of the forearm in one exercise resulting in greater strength and muscle mass gains in the forearms.
8 - Weighted Vest
Whether you are doing a cardio workout or a strength routine the Weighted Vest will increase the force applied through your body, resulting in increased bone density and improved strength. Simply adjust the weight by adding or removing the weighted blocks to the vest. The weighted vest can be used to increase load during body weighted or resistance exercises as well as including it in cardio exercise and burn more calories.
9 - Dip Bars
Dip bars are an excellent way to build bigger tricep, shoulder and chest muscles. They also help improve other essential exercises such as bench press and shoulder press. Dip Bars are a simple piece of equipment but often ignored as they take up too much space. Our dips bars are compact and adjustable to save space and allow for a variety of exercises from beginners exercises to advanced calisthenic exercises.
10 - Landmine Handle
We all know the benefits of landmine exercises and how much variety it can bring to our routines with multi-jointed or rotational exercises. The Landmine Handle improves your landmine experience by making it easier to grip and use the bar. To get started simply slide it onto the barbell and lock into place.

Not only to make sure that your body has to continually adapt to different training stimuli but also to keep your training sessions fresh and motivating.
