@EAWhite19842 жыл бұрын
The round offset foot rubbers is an interesting concept. While with more expensive benches you would not want round feet due to the concentration of force potentially flattening out the foot. Higher end manufacturers could still make their square foot rubbers with different thicknesses for all four sides so you can have a bit of adjustment on more expensive benches.
@GlucksGym2 жыл бұрын
Most tend to just have rubber that can somewhat work for uneven surfaces. I neglected showing off the feet of the Flybird Pro model which have an interesting foot adjustment system.

Always have to watch a Gluck video 2-3 times to make sure I didn't miss anything; I enjoy them all. And just when I thought you had answered every question on benches, you cover a (huge) niche market for these popular items. The AB-4100 checked all the boxes for me, and I couldn't be happier. Although I'm happy with my two DB sets, I just had to go exploring and shopping only to find the usual result: a piece of equipment might be otherwise perfect, only to discover the one flaw the company overlooked ruined the whole gd thing! Meanwhile I'm out another $1,000 and I'm cursing myself for being so stupid, stupid, stupid! Hey, thanks for the video, and no matter the cost or quality, never stop talking benches! 👍💯👍

A bit steep for 10 pound dumbbells but ok. Shipping to NY. SIXTY F’in dollars. Are they wacko? $45 flat fee to ship a 125 pound bench from rogue, free shipping from titan. OMG.
