Planning to add more DB’s and a DB rack in the future.

I’ve never owned my own fitness equipment before so I took a leap. Just a simple Flybird bench with the leg attachment and a fly bird soaring eagle barbell. It also has a preacher curl attachment. Not the fanciest or nicest set up, but it’s a start!

What is up everyone... Welcome to the Targeted Talk... where we take a topic pertinent to the home gym owner and do what we do best... spend way too much time thinking about and talking about it!

Current Topic

u/FURKADURK asked if we had ever done a Targeted Talk on Treadmills... and I told him no because Treadmills are dumb and I make the rules here!

Then I went ahead and made this post.

• Do you own a treadmill? why or why not?
• If you do, what do you own? Do you like it? why?
• Are you looking at treadmills? What are you considering?

Ultimately... what makes a good treadmill for a home gym? What features, what brands... where to buy one?

If you were putting a treadmill in your own home, what would you get?

and... GO!

What is an AMA and Why Should I do one?

Added a Rogue Echo Bike to go along with my Monster SM-2.5. Also added a set of resistance bands from Rep which are great. Pretty much all I need at home.

Hey y’all! I’m Kris with Belt Fed Strength, a small (very, very small) boutique style family/veteran owned leather shop specializing in bespoke lifting belts and other strength accessories. Everything we make is made to order, in house, by us. All our custom belts are hand carved and painted by my wife Randi, definitely a dying art. We never knew what we were heading for when we started out and we are incredibly thankful for the Home Gym community for bringing us this far.

We both compete in strongman and powerlifting and the strength community has been a literal life saver to us in more ways than one and we absolutely love the spot we’ve found for ourselves making meaningful gear for folks in this space. We’re both super excited to see what questions you have for us. Feel free to ask anything at all!

We’re not in business to be in business, we don’t come from money and we sure ain’t going towards it. We’re here purely because we like making nice things for nice folks who understand what it means to put yourself under the bar for the endless amount of reasons we do it.

Let’s hear what you’ve got! And cut me some slack here if you can because I barely know how to reddit at all but I’ll do my best! We’re traveling to Home Gym Con right now too so I’ll be in and out often. Thanks for the opportunity to be here and meet some new friends!

Check us out on IG at BeltFedStrength and BeltFedMuscleMommy on our website HERE We don't take ourselves too seriously so don't expect much there!
