    I don't know if I missed this in a prior video, but just curious: It looks like you're very much into the old York/Jackson brands. I'm an unabashed Ivanko fanboi, so I'm curious if there's any reason you wouldn't have them in your collection or the old BFCO or other random brands? Just preference I'm guessing?

    • @vintageweightspgh
      @vintageweightspgh 10 ชั่วโมงที่ผ่านมา

      I’ve only ever had some Ivanko M series. I really liked the quality. The only downside IMO is that Ivanko deep dish aren’t as deep as others. They’re closer to International or Schisler in depth rather than 2” thick Yorks, Weiders, and Jackson’s. I’d love to find some BFCOs, but haven’t. And that’s really the reason I haven’t many Ivankos is that I just haven’t found many.

    • @vintageweightspgh
      @vintageweightspgh วันที่ผ่านมา

      To the best of my knowledge, York didn’t start marking the inner collar with York Barbell and York, PA until 1978. So a 1976 bar wouldn’t have that lettering. Sounds like you have a nice 1976 York split sleeve. Enjoy it! Thanks so much for watching and commenting!

I recently received two split sleeves from marketplace, and the one came apart fine and fixed up nicely, but the older one seems to have a bearing loose and sliding around inside the sleeve. Was wondering if you knew anything about this or if there was anything I could do? The sleeve on the other side is solid with nothing sliding around inside, and the neither of the sleeves had anything sliding around inside them on the other bar. I was more excited about this har as it’s older, but I fear I fear it’s broken with nothing to do to fix it

    • @vintageweightspgh

    Still bringing the HGC footage! Starting to feel like I missed out, but can only really afford one trip a year and I was in Columbus about a month prior. Question for you: Would you recommend Belt Fed Strength for a first belt? I've been holding out on buying anything as I'm an overthinker and have analysis paralysis. I've never used a belt since I never stayed serious long enough to get my lifts heavy enough, however I'm finally at the point that I think I need a belt for DL's and squats. My thoughts were buy something inexpensive to learn and beat up, and once I know what I'm doing spend the money on something better. Just not sure if this is the smartest path.

    • @vintageweightspgh
      @vintageweightspgh 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I wouldn’t get a custom belt from Belt Fed for my first, but having wasted my money on some cheap belts in the past, I’d suggest getting one of Belt Feds training belts. They’re $80 and a good all around belt. Then if you get heavier into powerlifting or strongman or just want a thicker belt, you could get a more expensive one. And the training belt would still be useful for times and lifts in which you didn’t want to use the thicker belt. I felt that all my cheap $40 belts were stuff in a cardboard thin type of way that was uncomfortable and dug into me. Once I finally got a decent leather belt, I realized how nice it is to have it break in some over time but still be supportive.

      For me, 3inONE has been fine for bright zinc. I also like polish from Chemical Guys.

    This kit is way better and sturdier than Monkey Feet. And cheaper!

    They are the nicest and the leatherwork is amazing. I have their accessory strap and it’s almost too beautiful to use!

    I met up with a guy to buy a used Pioneer belt and he also recommended Beltfed, I've heard nothing but good things.
