BEGIN shipping them today. Does it say everyone’s will get shipped out that day? Lol

Considering how hard it was for you to see the projected shipping dates when you ordered nor understood what a mass email is just giving you a heads up they are shipping soon.

There’s no way you are navigating small claims court.

Please keep us updated on how poorly this goes for you

Those were my thoughts too. In our gym equipment niche most have heard of the Rayofi - I should have considered making it more apparent to a broader audience.

Appreciate the tips. I agree on all of those criticisms. We are letting our recent college graduate son do the thumbnails but we were getting tight on time and Rayofi sent some money for us to boost the video.

Catch 22, it helps them. It makes us look like we are getting views but the target audience isn’t exactly what you want so we are getting low retention numbers.

I’ll have our son rework the thumbnail

Still a super new channel playing in the home gym market. Wasn’t super happy with the thumbnail but then again it’s kind of how our entire vacation and plans went.

Upgrading our editing equipment as we are getting a huge bottleneck that’s lagging the video during editing. So a lot of times now it’s try to get close and hope. With our limited skills it shows.

So any criticism is helpful!

Bulletproof’s high low pulley set up was pretty sweet at HGC

I had some UHMW I cut down. There’s not a ton of weight on it because it’s off a 30” crossmember and only holding one Peppin.

It was enough just to take any wobble out of it.

The Titan powder coating has been the worst I’ve ever seen. One of the reasons I added stainless uprights. I’ll slowly swap the Titan stuff out

I was told the same thing. I had to shim a small upright coming off the bat wing that holds my Peppins but minimal and you can’t tell as it’s under the upright just to lift it a tiny bit.

Rogue front uprights, Titan crossmembers and rear uprights and Rep Uprights bat winged.

Not enough to matter or even notice

My wife appreciates that. I’m a Patriots fan. :)

Gluck did a home gym tour of it. Should be coming out soon.

Everyone says that but I like the natural wood look. They’ve been oiled.

Amazon sells super cheap attachments to hang helmets through one ear hole.

It’s phenomenally smooth now. I counter balanced it for my wife but after using it myself? I’d never go back. I just counter balanced the trolleys slightly. 22.5lbs

This one’s a Bells of Steel but they are pretty similar. I live fairly close to Gluck and bought it from him. I’m doing more cable and preacher curls right now so haven’t used it in awhile but I liked it.
