"The diversity and range of training products Iron Edge offers is easily the best I have experienced in the 12 years I have worked in elite sport. Rick¹s passion to supply innovative and unique training tools has allowed me to continually challenge my athletes, add variety to training and ultimately achieve excellent results in all areas of strength and conditioning. I am currently using the power bands, ropes and rings, slosh balls, torsonator and power rope in resistance sessions. I look forward to continue using the latest and best products from Iron Edge for years to come."

"PTC is an all round strength gym. We participate in all levels of strength competitions, from Powerlifting to Strongman. We also train footballers, MMA fighters, basketballers and soccer players. We have just had one of our lifters land a scholarship in the USA as an offensive linesman.

We are not a one dimensional gym, far from it. So we demand a complete selection of equipment. While some gyms specialize in one area of strength, we don't. Muscular endurance is just as important as outright strength. Speed is just as important as aerobic fitness.

So when I need equipment, I go to Iron Edge. I don't know of a single supplier where I can get IWF certified bars and plates, Kettlebells, power racks, maces, sleds, platforms, bands, plyo boxes, squat stands, mats, lifting shoes, all under one roof. From Uesaka and Zhang Kong bars, to the heaviest Kettlebell available, the 80kg "bomb".

We hold Strongman and Powerlifting comps at PTC. We have Olympic lifters pounding Iron Edge bumper plates daily. We have never had a single failure in any piece of equipment supplied by Rick. We are now in our fourth year, we have 65 footballers using our stuff alongside powerlifters, six days a week.

We are approaching 100 National Powerlifting records at PTC, we have over 20 World Records and a World Champ. We demand the same level of performance from our equipment as we do our lifters.

Rick has been supporting, understanding and honest. He knows what I expect from equipment and Iron Edge has never failed to deliver. He will source anything we need."

I am writing to thank you guys for being different to most sports equipment suppliers. It’s pleasing to see a company look out for those who enjoy training and who enjoy getting real athletic results.

I have used the Power Rings and Bands on the international athletes that I coach – both in Basketball and Athletics. The athletes love training with the equipment. The reasons for using such equipment are too numerous to mention without sounding like one is waffling on and giving a sales pitch.

As National Strength and Conditioning Manager for Basketball Australia we are purchasing a number of sets of Power Rings and Bands to be used in our training camps and for when traveling. With the varied exercises these pieces of training equipment provide the athletes can maintain high levels as well as make gains. The convenience of using this equipment means we are time efficient and don’t waste needless energy - all of which allows for more recovery and less burn out. Some of our professional players in the NBA and WNBA have requested the rings and bands so they can basically use them as a portable gym – working both the upper body and legs comprehensively. The programs that the rings and bands can provide are limited by only the coaches or users knowledge.

Thanks again to the staff at Iron Edge for providing this form of training device.
