i would love a junkyard meet! last year i did a lot of training with stones, tree trunks, and railroad ties. railroad tie bench press for reps should be an event.
I have an old RR tie that I cut out holes for hand holds and ran a bolt thru. I put the steel base plates and drove spikes into it to make it look more “authentic”….like it just came off the tracks, plus that added weight!
