After a few years I figure I should probably do a video on this.

Brandon's fingering game is definitely strong. I have a Titan jack and it's a great thing to have in my gym. Just not down with using my nice and expensive calibrated plates to lift weights. The dead wedge is another nice cheap too as well.

[@BasementBrandon]

Agree, I started with the dead wedge way back when!

[@alexcalvo8094]

Those are some beautiful plates.

[@BasementBrandon]

🤘

[@carps_gym]

I also store my genesis jack pro inside down on the wall or on the gun rack

[@BasementBrandon]

No more room in the gun racks :(

[@brianhopkins5251]

Kleva makes really top notch stuff. I've been super impressed.

[@BasementBrandon]

Agreed!

[@markhalstead2386]

I shipped my genesis jack to a Facebook marketplace buyer as I replaced it with the Genesis Pro jack. I love that it sets a little higher and I don’t have to bend over to place it like the smaller brother. I just lean it against a storage rack that is behind my deadlift platform when storing. It isn’t in the way since my bumper plates are on that storage rack. I have other plates on my power rack where I squat and bench.

[@BasementBrandon]

appreciate the first hand feedback!

[@nowayjosehomegym]

Thanks for the review! I personally have used this with a power bar (garage floor) and it would tip on me several times. If you are walking around the bar loading plates and you accidentally hit it, it can tip over as it happened several times with me. Might have been the garage or a slope or not being totally level but it happens (mainly if I have an eleiko platform that is not totally firm and as long as the legs stand on the wood). It is very easy to move around and light and you can store it on your gunrack but Id rather have a heavy one that wont matter if I hit it rather than having all the weight fall on me. If I wouldn't have bought the Ghost, I would've bought the one from Black Widow which you can customize it with the "Naked Man".

[@BasementBrandon]

In the 4 years I've used this I haven't had it tip when loaded. Maybe I should make a video tutorial on how to use it? 🤪

[@TheraQinMovementClinic]

I definitely encountered the same problem when trying to use the genesis jack pro inside my rogue RM-6. First world problem but just something i did not think about.

[@BasementBrandon]

Yeah not one of those things you usually have to!

[@scooobyj8714]

That’s a great DL jack. I just got a full jack last summer. It is a game changer.

[@BasementBrandon]

solid!

[@importantstuff1130]

Dude these plates!!!!

[@BasementBrandon]

😎

[@twistedbarbell3950]

Nice and looks like a great jack! I definitely need to upgrade to a full jack now that I'm using calibrated plates with tighter tolerances. I do love their genesis jack, so this one seems like a no brainer.

[@nowayjosehomegym]

look into the black widow one, it comes apart and you can customize it too!

[@twistedbarbell3950]

@@nowayjosehomegym Appreciate the recommendation Jose.

[@BasementBrandon]

Yeah I just like the convenience a full jack provides, but especially one like this that's a bit less bulky and much lighter.

[@aghoover]

I use the old BOS full jack in my BOS light commercial rack, for space reasons. It all fits. One thing people should be aware of the forward/backward space needed lifting the weights with the jack. Plate storage, etc may get in the way. Having said that, I was happy with my $50can purchase.

[@BasementBrandon]

Right on!

[@carps_gym]

Yeah I was going to make one like this once you get about 600lbs on there with a DL bar ie Kabuki or Texas the plates are gonna touch the ground. But I don’t have any comp plates

[@BasementBrandon]

Good all, less comp plates prob before the sag impacts it since they're wider.

[@drdamonmccune]

I love mine! It is one of those items that you don't really know how much you need until you have it. Then, you can't live without it. 😂

[@BasementBrandon]

Exactly! Hope all is well dude.

[@Garage_gym48]

Nice video. Would love to have both the kabuki bar and the jack available. One day 🥲

[@BasementBrandon]

I think this is the first time I've used the Kabuki in over a year

[@Garage_gym48]

@@BasementBrandon dayammm. Could always send it down under 😅 my attempts to get one were not financially sound.

[@ExpeditionaryRanger]

Very nice . Now I must go deadlift as soon as supper settles. I just have a cheaply Bells of steel jack, but it’s been one of my favourite additions to the gym. Just makes deadlifting oh so much more enjoyable. And it does fit inside my rml-490 when the wife and I are deadlifting simultaneously on my 8x8 platform. I have heard the rogue jack doesn’t, such as from coops vid of Reynolds’s strong gym. Can anyone confirm? Does the rogue jack fit inside a rml or ml rack?

[@BasementBrandon]

I think this is going to depend on which rogue deadlift jack you're looking at, and which rack you have. RML is 43" wide, total width of Rogues basic full jack is 42". So I assume it would fit. My question would be is the width from cradle to cradle, or is it from foot to foot.

[@carlgibson7850]

Any experience with Blackwidow's? The removable handle intrigues me, considering my unhealthy addiction to buying equipment. The space it would save storing it when it isn't deadlift day seems invaluable. I haven't seen anyone else offering that feature.

[@BasementBrandon]

I have not used it. I don't imagine I would ever remove the handle, so while a nice feature, not sure it serves much purpose.

[@David-mk5yq]

Between ironmaster and fast pepin Which one would you say its more durable? From what I heard, BOTH are durable but which one would you say is slightly more durable than the other in terms of dropping?

[@BasementBrandon]

I'd say Ironmaster b/c there are less parts

[@TheCarterHomeGym]

I know this video isn't about the bar, but how are you liking it? I've been eyeing it 🥴

[@BasementBrandon]

First time I've actually used it in over a year. I just prefer pulling on a power bar.

[@MrPanthers23]

My basement is pretty small. Can you do a KZbin short showing how it would work to just use 2 genesis jacks, one on each side. Is it stable enough to load up even without the bar securing both Jack's together?

[@fwiffo42]

Garage Gym Life did that in a video recently!

[@BasementBrandon]

I actually parted with my other genesis jacks since I had this one. I'd prob prefer to do one at a time however.

[@fwiffo42]

A great full-size jack! I didn’t realize the price was at $290 now. I bought mine for $230.

[@BasementBrandon]

Inflation i suppose? 😅

[@BrimhallBarbellClub]

Looks awesome. I just don’t really have the room for a full Jack. 15 pounds though…..so tempting.

[@BasementBrandon]

Jack needs a jack.
