Titan Fitness came into the Strongman scene a few years ago and instantly made a big impact, garnering lots of strong opinions by the members of our Facebook group, both positive and negative.
Titan Fitness offers budget friendly Strongman equipment, two phrases that never really went together before. I got into Strongman training a bit over a decade ago and instantly loved it. I did everything I could to be able to compete in the sport and get my hands on Strongman implements. Driving two hours each way to train, saving up money, and making things myself.
I was a bit obsessed, and just about everyone else I encountered in the sport was as well. It was very hard to have access to Strongman equipment back then, and when talking to other people that were interested in Strongman, the most common issue was the barrier of entry with lack of access to specific equipment. The other issue was equipment was not very beginner friendly, since a lot of the Strongman equipment was homemade and overbuilt for super heavyweight strongman who tend to abuse it. I remember logs weighing 220lbs empty, 600lb empty yokes, etc. While there is something awesome about that, if everything is pro level equipment it does not make the sport accesibile for newer or lighter athletes.
I can say since Titan Fitness has come into existence, this has helped with that a lot. When one of my athletes has an event come up in a contest that they don’t have access to, the likelihood of them buying the implement if it costs around $200 vs $600-800 is a lot more. Even if the quality isn’t as good as more expensive brands, Titan Fitness Strongman equipment tends to be good enough for home or training group use.
Overall, I think Titan Fitness has been a huge benefit to making Strongman more accessible and affordable to more people. The more logs, yokes, farmers walk, and other implements out there, the more people will be introduced to the sport and the bigger it will grow.
The negative parts of Titan Fitness tend to be lower quality control, a few design flaws with improper specs on Strongman implements, and people expecting too much out of a budget brand. Generally, I recommend Titan Fitness products for home/ personal use and for public Strongman gyms with many members or more elite stronger competitors. I cringe when I see a contest run with budget equipment. Just like tools, there should be a clear distinction between what is good for home DIY projects, and what a professional needs in price and quality. Titan Fitness is one of the best brands out there for the home gym/ DIY project Strongman.
