Yes4All Barbell Bomb Landmine Attachment

The Yes4All Barbell Bomb is a rubber landmine base — the weighted dome you put on the floor so an Olympic barbell can pivot inside it for rows, presses and rotations — and it takes number 9 in this guide. At £16.28 it is the cheapest of the three rubber bases in the category, £0.71 under the DASKING at £16.99 and £2.58 under the HXD-ERGO at £18.86, and it is the one with real weight of opinion behind it: 181 ratings at 4.5 out of 5, with 73 of them five-star.

The figure that earns it a place on this page is the capacity claim. The listing gives a maximum weight capacity of 880 lb, about 399 kg, for a base that itself weighs 599 g, and that is roughly eight times the 50 kg the DASKING claims for £0.71 more. We have not tested it and cannot tell you whether 880 lb holds; the figure is the listing's own. Two smaller things on the same page do not line up. The Grip Type field says "Smooth" while the bullets promise a textured surface that prevents movement, and the Finish Type says "E-Coated", a metal treatment, on a base the same listing describes as TPR rubber and EVA foam. The star breakdown supplied with the listing also adds up to 100 ratings, not the 181 shown elsewhere on it.
