5 New Garage Gym Equipment Pieces You Need – September 2022
There is new garage gym equipment every month… which makes me VERY excited. But sometimes things pop up that catch my eye for a reason or two… or five. Typically, as someone who has been in the home gym game since 2013, I am looking at equipment that stands out a bit, pushes the envelopes, or that I would personally buy myself or recommend to a friend starting up their garage gym. This certainly isn’t an expansive list, in fact you can check out last months list for some solid additions as well. Today we’ll take a look at what our sponsors and others are cooking, have dropped, and are making my knees weak in today’s article – 5 New Garage Gym Equipment Pieces You Need – September 2022
Prime Fitness Super Squat Bar
In the Spring 2022 Garage Gym Competition, 5 lucky bastards took home a brand new mystery prize from Prime Fitness. It just so happened to be the Prime Fitness Super Squat Bar, which is their unique Safety Squat Bar (SSB) offering a Self-adjusting back plate. The bar is cambered to match your center of gravity as well. This means better stability, less back strain, and decreased pressure on the spine. A more comfortable squat for everyone!
Add in the stainless steel additions and the Prime Fitness approach, and you know this bar is in the tippity top of best options on the market.

Weight It Out Cast Iron Plates
A HUGE number of GGC participants listed additional weights as one of their primary purchases for the coming year. There are a ton of solid options, but it is hard to compete with these bad boys.
Weight it Out has recently dropped their Cast Iron 45 pound plates. Made in the USA, extremely accurate, slim profile to allow maximal loading and mimic powerlifting competition plates, WITH built in handles for ease of use. And if you purchase NOW, they are still on their introductory pricing.
We actually mentioned these plates back in our last article, but they just arrived and are finally IN STOCK.

CFT Roller J-Hook Set
Roller J-Cups weren’t invented by Ghost Strong, but they certainly seemed to make them cool. Since Ghost sold to Rogue, others have stepped in the game. CFT Performance, looking to produce high end quality gear at budget prices, is working on their own version as we speak. Currently going through load testing, these should be hitting home gyms in the very near future. As with everything from CFT, they come with a number of options including custom colors, different roller types, and can fit your 2×3 or 3×3 racks, including different bolt sizes.

REP Fitness ARES
If you haven’t seen this yet, I’m assuming you either live under a rock, or are brand new to home gyms. REP Fitness has been dropping a ton of new equipment lately, and the AREA, which is their functional trainer built into a power rack option, is the newest drop.
A lot of the big boys like Garage Gym Lab and Gluck’s Gym have just received their ARES, so be ready for some solid feedback and review details coming soon. In the meantime, check it out here: https://repfitness.com/collections/ares/products/ares-cable-attachment-builder
Bells of Steel Hydra Series Power Racks
We mentioned the Bells of Steel Hydra Power Racks in this article, but didn’t want to leave them out. Tons of new attachments, with more on the way. These are a surefire rack upgrade if you are looking for one. And again, they are on 10% discount for the next couple of weeks. So act fact!
Cerberus Strength Barbells
A bonus 6th item… Not exactly a new item, but they are freshly IN STOCK! The Cerberus Strength Barbells, which includes their Deadlift Bar and Squat Bar, are available… until they sell out again! Snag one here: https://cerberus-strength.us/collections/barbells-plates
Code GGC saves you 10% on your bar purchase as well!
Wrap Up
There is a ton of cool stuff coming out in the remainder of the year. New bars, benches, attachments, and more. I think we’ll see companies continue to push out new options for people who joined the home gym community within the last couple of years and are looking to expand their options at home.
Anything you’d like to see some companies come out with? Let me know below!
