Wow, lucky you, getting an Amazon driver! We don't have Amazon yet in New Zealand, so everything comes from overseas using normal couriers. I usually use Amazon in Australia who do free shipping on a lot of items. Deliveries from Australia usually take 7-10 days.

Yes, when I have had things delivered by them, it usually goes quite well, and if I am able
to meet them at the door, they have all been very nice & polite.

We don't have Amazon drivers in my town in Florence, SC, LOL!

Well, the day after, I am having second thoughts about ordering them hooks.......but......
nickisteen said they do go around the padded FitTower bar, so...............maybe they'll
work like I am hoping.......delivery won't be till next Tuesday so I guess I'll be frettin'
back & forth until then Sometimes tho', I do get things faster than what they originally
say.....but because of Prime Days, my shipping will probably get "lower" priority, especially
since I went for the free shipping....Be patient me, be patient !

An Olympic barbell, even tho' 2 inches, I think that's where you put the plates, but I think
the actual holding area isn't actually 2" diameter, over 1" but not 2"....but what do I know!

You wouldn’t believe the contraptions I have been trying to rig up to mimic hooks & wrist
support… I won’t go into it, but one involved my wrist support and the hook end of a
wire hanger….. Have you ever heard such nonsense??? I decided I better stop and
clear my brain before I rigged up something and hurt myself

Did you try them with Supersets ? if so, which exercises?

aqua girl, you better be careful!!

Thanks, I will be anxious to try them for the pull-ups….I also saw in some of the questions & reviews on Amazon, that they apparently work good on rowing machine.
someone asked if they worked with Concept 2 & that’s what I have, so curious about that as well. I do a lot of circuit rowing workouts where you are on & off rower with
weight exercises, so might not be convenient there, but for straight rowing, it might be
ok, although I have pretty much mastered my grip on the rowing handle and learned not
to overly grip it.

Aqua Girl, if you keep that up, I'm going to stand you in the corner and make you stack BBs! lol That's what my mom used to tell my sister and I whenever we weren't really doing anything wrong YET, but we were getting TOO creative. lol

I know! I know! Sometimes I get the most "off the wall" ideas! Sometimes they "half-a$& work, but
most times....NOT!
