Common questions
how to choose dumbbell weight
To start training at home, an adjustable set made of a short bar and cast steel plates makes it easy to vary resistance. You can adjust the weight for each exercise without cluttering your living space. Our workshop offers balanced configurations suited to every build.
what materials are your benches made of
Our bench frames are manufactured from heavy-gauge powder-coated steel to guarantee complete rigidity. The feet rest on dense vulcanized rubber pads to keep from marking hardwood or tiled floors. No fragile plastic parts are used in the load-bearing frame.
how to clean a bare cast iron bar
A simple wipe with a soft, dry cloth after each workout is enough to remove moisture. You can apply a drop of mineral oil to the knurling once a year to condition the metal. Avoid abrasive cleaning products that could harm the protective patina of the steel.
