First go round with the belt squat and it actually feels good. Only put two plates on and did sets of ten. Used my dip belt and some chain I have.

I ended up buying the spud inc belt squat belt as the dip belt chain bisected my scrotum when I tried using it. I oughta use that belt squat more, that damn belt was half the price of the apparatus itself.

I have quite a bit of titan stuff and it’s functional and cheap. I think I paid like 220 dollars for my off brand squat rack to Lord Bezos. Added a few fat grips for like 13 bucks as well.

Titan is good for most things but I wouldn't buy the shit they've raised the prices on. I'm enjoying their slam balls.
 
Give you wives the gift of powerful thighs this year. Belt does pull your toward it so I’m still adjusting to where to stand to get better depth, 45s take up some foot space as well

How do you like it? I’ve never tried a belt squat but the short lever style seems like range of motion and angles would be wonky.
 
Good timing with that vid. Just had mine fail at the weak point and ended up with a stack of plates in my lap. Pretty sure the Signature Fit said it had a 1500 lb rating? How do you get more than 300 lbs on the sleeve? You were holding back with that warm up weight lol.

I’ll have to keep playing with it but as a third or fourth exercise you can definitely get some burn out of it. Once I find a good angle to work from should be able to work ass to grass in it. For 70 bucks it’s a bargain

I have no earthly idea how you’d get 1500 on there. I think maybe 6 plates is going to be the max. Might be fun to retest later

I've draped chains over the lever and wrapped bands around too.

Would have to be the super thin Weight It Out plates. But who's gonna spend $500 on plates for a bargain attachment lol
Put an extra length PVC extension for more room, the screws ripped out with 11 on it. Think there was room for 2 more. Replaced screws with bolts.
 
Nice little flat bench, currently out of stock apparently, but was 170-200

Fringe Sport just pushed out a pre-release text for their Mammoth Belt Squat . It's going to run twice as much as this Signature one but it's good to see competition. Submitted name for a drawing. They're giving away 5 of them if you promise to video review it lol.

Memorial day sales pouring in. Had to send oldest out of country on senior trip so play money was on pause.
How many more uses you find with that belt squat bar?

I’m thinking of adding a playing with myself series to cover shit I figure out. Floor presses with the Titan wagon wheels for instance. Perfect height. Only gone up to 185 though
