Strength Training Accessories | Chalk, Chains, Landmine & Drop Pads Lifting Chalk, Weight Lifting Chains, Landmine Attachments, Deadlift Jacks and Drop Pads from Fitness Hero, Vantage Strength and Morgan Sports The small pieces around a barbell make heavy training easier, quieter and more varied. This collection gathers strength accessories for the platform and the rack: chalk for grip, chains for variable resistance, a landmine attachment for angled presses and rows, a deadlift jack for changing plates, and drop pads to soften the bar's landing. Most of the hardware comes from our Fitness Hero Reload range, with chalk from Fitness Hero, Vantage Strength and Morgan Sports. For racks, bars and plates, see the related collections at the bottom of this page. How to Choose Strength Accessories Chalk: block and powder chalk give the driest grip for heavy pulls; chalk balls are less messy; liquid chalk dries onto the palms with little dust, which suits gyms that limit loose chalk. Lifting chains: chains add load as the bar rises and links leave the floor, so the lift is heaviest at the top, where you are strongest. Start light and add chain weight gradually; check the chain fits your bar's sleeve. Landmine attachments: anchor one end of an Olympic bar for presses, rows, rotations and belt squats. Check it suits your bar's 50mm sleeve. Deadlift jack: lifts a loaded bar off the floor so you can slide plates on and off without fighting the weight. Drop pads: thick foam pads under each end of the bar absorb the noise and impact of deadlifts and dropped lifts, which helps in home gyms and on upper floors. Our Range Chalk: Fitness Hero Gym Chalk (magnesium carbonate blocks), Vantage Strength Chalk Ball (56g), Vantage Strength Liquid Chalk (50ml) and Morgan Magnesium Liquid Gym Chalk (200ml). Variable resistance: Reload Olympic Weight Lifting Chains , zinc-coated steel with integrated 50mm collars, sold in pairs from 5kg to 25kg per chain. Bar tools: Reload U-Clip Landmine A
