Our Range of Strength Training Accessories

View our selection of weight training accessories to complement your commercial or home setup.

Deadlift Bar Jack

This deadlift bar jack is designed for quick and safe barbell loading. Supporting up to 1,000 lb, this resistance training accessory lifts the barbell off the floor, allowing you to add or remove plates without straining your back and saving time between sets.

Resistance Bands

Our resistance bands complement your training by allowing for a broader range of strength and mobility exercises. They’re available in several resistance levels to suit different ability levels, making them ideal for warm-ups, mobility work, and adding progressive tension to barbell lifts.

Jerk Blocks

These stackable jerk blocks help practise the “jerk” part of the “jerk and clean” lift, eliminating the need to clean the bar to rack height on each rep. You can also use them for other types of exercises like block pulls, partial deadlifts, and box jumps.

Straps, Wraps & Supports

Our range of strength training support accessories includes:

• Weightlifting straps: Available in lasso, closed-loop, and figure-8 styles, these straps reduce grip fatigue and evenly distribute weight across your wrists for support.
