Trending: Not Much Has Changed since 2022
This is the third consecutive year we’ve asked this question, and as shown below, not much has changed.
It’s worth noting that Kabuki was the sole option in 2022 and 2023, while Prime and Eleiko were added this year.
That said, REP has consistently stayed within the 46-48% range, premier options have fluctuated between 22-27%, Giant has remained between 6-10%, and “Other” has hovered around 20% each year.
Why REP?
I generally agree with the near majority. The REP Open Trap Bar stands out for its exceptional value-to-performance-to-feature ratio. However, the price point of $350+ might be a hurdle for some; the size could feel cumbersome for certain users, and others might prefer more premium features.
Even so, it strikes an excellent balance of performance, durability, and affordability, making it the most practical choice for most home gym owners seeking versatile and reliable equipment.
