Best praise vs top criticism for Rogue TB-2 Trap Bar
“If you really have to keep the rack there, swap your bar and plates for a " The Stump" bar from Rogue, it has shorter sleeves. And get thin plates from "weight it out plates", 45s are only a 1/2" thick so you'll be able to load all the weight you can handle on the shorter sleeves. It's a bit of a pricey fix. But it's the best solution for this problem. It's more of an investment because the bar and plates are premium quality and the resale value will always be there.”
“So many items, I don't know where to start and I'm sure I've forgotten a few blunders. But off the top of my head Rogue T-Bar Row: Standing t-bar row has always been my favorite back exercise. But I should have researched this purchase a little better. Though overbuilt, the angle of the footplate was all wrong. It's too shallow. So as you raise up the bar to row, you feel more if the movement in your legs than you do your lats. You're constantly fighting your whole body from tipping forward and you can't move your feet closer to the center of gravity to compensate because the close grip handles will dig into your legs half way up the lift. Plus, the thing is massive and ate up a lot of floor space. Lost a few dollars on this purchase when I flipped it. Rogue Oblique Flexor/45 degree back raise: The worst designed back raise in human history. The pad crushes your junk and if you try to lower/raise the pad to be more forgiving on your manhood, the angle of the footplate results in a lot of stress getting applied to the knees. Luckily, I found a sucker to buy this off me when I realized how back it sucked. Pretty sure that guy is currently trying to re-sell it on FBM lol. Lost a few dollars, but I don't care....just glad it's gone!”
