Vulcan Strength Absolute Medicine Ball

“Mix of new and used, like most people I assume. I tend to research the hell out of anything I spend money on, and gym equipment was no exception. I bought my power rack from FitnessDepot.ca. They have a CrossBox line that allows you buy individual pieces to build your own rack. At the time, they also sold power rack kits that you could customize by swapping the original parts out with upgrades if you wanted. Over time I added a few more things, but I've never felt the need to shop for a new rack. Weight plates and bench I found used. Found a set of Ivanko Revolver plates for like $1 CDN per pound, and a Life Fitness commercial grade adjustable bench for $100. Main barbell was bought new, it's a Vulcan Absolute V2.0. Before this I had a Texas Powerlifting Bar that I bought used. That was a good bar, but this one is waay better IMO. Worth the price. I have a second bar for landmine work, it's just a cheap chrome plated bar that I got used for like $25. The flooring I have is rubber tiles (Regupol Aktiv). New, these tiles are about $20 each, but I bought them all used for something like $6-7 a tile. I was also about to find a functional trainer on Kijiji. The person was giving it away to anyone willing to dismantle it. I was lucky and messaged her first, and she was nice enough to let me have dibs, so I went home, got my socket set, and went to work learning how to dismantle it. Took me like 45 mins to take pictures of everything and figure out how to disassemble the weight stacks. I got a ton of use out of it, and then ended up selling it for $1000 a few years ago (no room for it in the new house).”
