All equipment is a fucking scam. Shorts and a shirt.
Don't get gloves.
Don't get straps.
Don't get a fucking ab roller.
Don't get crossfit socks.
Don't get anything but shorts and shirts.

You use belts that a miillion people have rubbed their ball sweat and chalk on?
Are you asking for some sort of aids?

I just got a belt, ab wheel, straps, and oly shoes

>You use belts that a miillion people have rubbed their ball sweat and chalk on?
No, you just dont use them.
>>
What type of lifting plug do you guys use?
>>
>>35730409
There's no reason to buy an ab roller really.
That said, I like to have one at home because you look like a retard doing them, and there are qts at the gym. It also shortens the time I need to be in there

>no lifting butplug
nt gonna make it

Fat Powerlifter here

Inzer Belt (10 mm lever)
Rehbands and SBD Knee Sleeves (I prefer Rehbands on front squats
Adipowers
Gangsta Wraps

My gym bag weighs a fucking ton
>>
>>35730505
>implying I use a belt at all
There is your mistake.
I'm not suggesting that equipment is a scam because you can use free stuff at the gym. I'm suggesting it's a scam because you don't need it.
>>
>>35730555
I've not been on this board for a while. Is the ab roller a meme I missed or are you really suggesting he use one?

its a great exercise, but its up to you to buy one. There are plenty of other great ab exercises that dont require a special wheel

Ab wheels are a meme, squats and deadlift are memes, lifting is a meme, fitness in general is a meme.
Everything is a meme now
>>
>>35731082
that you are carrying the ss books with you is more surprising and disturbing than the butt plug
>>
>>35731102
I read it between sets to make sure my form is on point.
>>
>>35730532
All of this plus wrist wraps and knee wraps
>>
>Twf can't even squat or deadlift 2pl8 but still want to use belt.
>>
>>35731102
It's a squat plug, don't be disgusting.
>>
>>35731227
It's to increase intra-abdominal pressure during the Valsalva maneuver.

If its good enough for KK its good enough for me.

Seriously though the ab-wheel is a great tool but it has gotten a bad rep just because its sold on TV with promises of instant weight loss and 6-pack.
>>
>>35730503
this plus chalk

also bring a towel so you're not one of those queers taking all the paper towels.
>>
5 extra pairs of ear buds
>>
Belt
Knee sleeves if I'm squatting
Wrist wraps
Straps + Chalk
Heeled shoes for bench and front squats
Flat shoes for squats and deadlift

It did get a bit more annoying once I switched to heels down benching and found out my heeled shoes worked better for it. Have to switch shoes back and forth.

>every gym that you'd want any relation with has a fuckton more belts than you'd ever need

>abwheel is useful but you can substitute it with pretty much any core body weight exercise
>>

>His gym doesn't have a chalk bucket.

I bet you don't even know a person that benches more than 500lbs.
>>
>>35730758
there's no reason to not use a belt...
>>
>>35730409
All I have is an ab wheel

I'd personally say a membership is a must have, but that's just me.

>inb4 homegym master race
You don't have a gym, you have a squat rack in your garage.
>>
Ab rollers are actually fucking useful my abs are fucking massive because of it and you can really feel the burn if you use them properly. Any other equipment is just to make manlets feel good I mean gloves are for faggots, blisters are for men

Tips for ab wheels?
>>
i have a belt, liquid chalk,oly shoes,straps and some thin knee warmers/sleeves if my knee feels like shit that day.
>>
>>35731309
I need chalk for deads b/c my hands get sweaty easily
>>
>>35734945
I just make sure to keep my arms straight so I'm not using them to push myself up. Go as far down as I can with the roller and do it quite slowly, then slowly bring yourself back up until the wheel is at your knees again. Repeat that about 10 times and combine that with some leg raises where you're lifting to 90 degrees ~10 times too and you'll notice a difference in your abs
>>
>>35734989
>until the wheel is at your knees again
So you're doing them on your knees and not standing?

Which inzer belt? The forever one? Like 90 bucks?
>>
>>35730765
Yeah it's a bit of a meme. Planks are as effective and you can ads weight to them.
>>
>>35730409
Get a thicker belt
>>
>>35730437
What type of shitskin are you? What color collared polo shirt do you wear to match your windbreaker pants? Is curry really a good post workout meal?

You just described my gym minus a few resistance bands (for dat speed work) and a jump rope so I can skip around like a faggot for cardio

Don't get anything but a belt and wraps

heh, I bought an ab roller today. Never even used one before, but it was $3 at Goodwill so I picked it up. I've got a small apartment gym with no ab equipment, I've just been doing planks and jackknives so far.

We'll see what an ab roller's like. Anybody else find them useful or did I waste $3?
