- Someone in the garage gym space recently made a huge deal out of this being a competition. I couldn't disagree more or more vehemently. The more we support each other, the more everyone grows.
This week's 5 minute Friday is dedicated to the small micropeneurs in the home and garage gym space who are making some of the best gear you've never heard of. Share this video with everyone you know who should know about these guys!

Darko, MicroGainz, Mutant Metals, BridgeBuilt, Arm Assassin, Freedom Strength, Swing Sesh, and Havak Designs have been suggested for future videos. Who else did I miss?
Really like Micro Gainz as well
@@carps_gym 100%!!! Great guy, really cool company
Havak Designs is one I rarely see come up. Their adjustable dumbbell is phenomenal.
Haven't heard of them, but I'll check them out!
@@GymCrafter Kurtlocker and Coop are the two that I can remember doing a review. Also, Chris Duffin and Kabuki used to sell the kyubell, which is the fixed version of the triad adjustable.
@@weightsnwaves They look really cool and a lot like the dumbbells that ATX showed at HGC
JD Gym Equipped got in trouble a few years ago for stealing a partner’s idea for his own financial gain and it took a while for me personally to look past that. At the end of the day, that was just for one product and he’s done a lot more since then so I’ll give him props. I hope Jesse’s learned from it and only does business the right way moving forward.
I didn't know that, people that I talked to all really liked them, so it looks like maybe they have moved on.
What was the product? Is it worth buying?
I have some mag pins from JD Gym Equipped and they are sweet. I can't imagine a mag pin being any nicer. i'm probably gonna get more just because mag pins are super handy.
I bet. Everything at their booth was impressive!
Just ordered some stainless steel handles from Mutant Metals after seeing them on Glucks video. Looking forward to trying them out!
I recently received a pair of their 15" 45mm handles that I ordered over Black Friday . They are nice. I'm curious how they would compare to handles from JD Gym Equipped.
Nice! I've heard great things and will include them in a future video!
@@billchurch4460 ya I was wondering that too, had never heard of JD prior to this video but the stuff on his site looks pretty cool
@@GymCrafter Thanks for highlighting the smaller guys, I love supporting smaller family businesses and would never have heard about Mutant or JD if it wasn't for you and Gluck
Great video!
Thanks!
Love all of this companies
Anyone I should add for the next video? I was thinking about the sandbag company you guys used in the comps
@@GymCrafterI’d agree that freedom strength would be a good highlight. I’d also say Bridgebuilt, arm assassin strength shop, team swing sesh to name a few
I got a Beltfed belt that I won in a contest.
When I was giving him the details I wanted on the belt and he stopped me and said you won 3rd place so you only get our basic plain belt with no customization.
I got a one color belt with no frills and it's nice belt but I recommend if you get one from Beltfed to get the upper level offers that are in the three or four hundred dollar range to get customizations.
I appreciate a free belt, I do but it's not something I would have bought, it's just a black belt hanging on my wall.
I admit I was excited when I won it but when I found it was just a plain belt that I could get from anywhere I was not excited anymore.
I do appreciate a free belt though, I have an extra one on the wall
Their custom belts looked amazing!
@@GymCrafter
Oh Yeah, Kris' wife does Amazing work, she is an artist.
Only bad thing with Beltfed is the wait time but it is something they can't help because as you said there is only two of them.
I figured they could send me the basic belt as there was no customization but no, I had to wait about 4 months to get it.
Then they sent me the wrong belt, every detail was wrong. I figured I was stuck with it since I won it and didn't pay for it but Kris made it right, he sent me the belt and said I could keep the wrong belt, I didn't do that, I sent the wrong one back and figured they could use it for their displays.
The sent the correct belt out right away, I got it within 2 weeks.
They will work with you and make you satisfied!!!!
I left a lengthy comment over two hours ago and it mysteriously dissapeared ???
sorry that that happened, it def wasn't me! I usually only check comments once a day. today I also checked this morning, but didn't see anything from you either time.
Some friendly constructive criticism. I am burned out on home gym con content or mentions on videos. It’s cool, but I’m tapping out with so many home gym creators constantly referencing it.
Each to their own. But personally I am not in agreement with this. HGC was a good forum to give some of these smaller independents some air time.
Garage Gym Reviews has got you covered. They haven’t Mentioned it in 3 years.
@@slothy120 💯 agree smaller companies don’t get enough love for sure, especially by the big accounts
@@slothy120 not disagreeing with you, but it has come and gone for the most part. Seems like I hav been hearing about it non stop during and weeks after. Not only do I get it here, but also in various other channels and podcasts. If nobody speaks up I think it is easy to just churn through the content. This video would have been just as effective without mentioning Home Gym Con at least 5 separate times…
@@carps_gym with decent reasoning though. The people who put it on are competitors to their business. I understand them not going all in on coverage.
