Keep going man I believe in you
Does this machine have enough clearance from the wall to fit olympic bumper plates with a diameter of 17.7 inches?
Yes it does
I see you guys love your 5 ft titan bar too. Thats where it all began with me.
Love it actually!! Fits well in tight spaces.
do you think this would fit powertec leverage gym?
Yeah I think they should fit.
Bouta start my journy with some dumbbells 💪
That's great!
Thanks, this was a life saver.
Glad it was helpful!
Family that trains together gets stronger 💪 🙌
That's right! And built-in motivation👍
Do you do most of your work inside the rack or outside? It looks to me like you could put both of the lat tower cables to the front of the rack, attached to the front of the outside uprights, then you could have storage on both sides of the back uprights, and then you could work inside the rack still depending on the placement of the weight pegs. But then the bar wouldn’t run into the cable tower. Just an idea, not sure it’ll all fit :) I upgraded my T3 to a 6 post for that very reason. Weight plates on the back posts, lat pulldown/low row attached to the back posts and then I do my bench work within the original 4 post and inside the middle posts, do squats on the inside of the front posts, still room to deadlift outside the rack in the platform.
I do most of my work outside the rack basically because I use the rear posts for weight plate storage. I've thought about using the front uprights for the cable towers. Ideally I'd like to get extension mounting attachments that allow you to attach the cable towers at a 45 degree angle sticking out from the front uprights. I know force USA has that option for their racks. I haven't seen an option to buy the extension mounting attachments separately though.

How did you attach the wahoo to your bike?
It came with zip ties. That's how it's attached
Can you tell the a size ace abd
Thanks for the post. I too will be living in Florida soon and will be building out a garage gym. If it works in Miami it will work West Palm. Thank for the tip
Glad it was helpful. It worked well for me. Good luck!
I upgraded mine with a space saving pullup bar with a 24” extension (I have the small rack and it was 2 small to do pull-ups without my feet touching). So now I’ve got the 36” + 24” and it’s huge. Debating getting the 12” extension to shorten it a bit, but I also want to get the Lat Pulldown attachment. What would you say is the minimum space needed for that? If I get the 24” down to 12” would that compromise the ability to do lat pulldown there and still have space to work within the rack? (Currently doing all my work within the rack)
Thanks for the review. I'm considering the T3 rack. Is it stable when doing pullups without bolting it to the floor?
Glad it was helpful. Yes it very stable without bolting it down. If you do kipping pullups you may want to bolt it down.
How do you get the mirror off the wall!?
Ugh there was zero assembly in this video....
There are adapters for 2x3 to 3x3 attachments. Just Google “2x3 to 3x3 rack adapter” and a lot of options will come up
Great cheap solution!! The only issue for me is my cats will want to come in the garage. I would need to install a screen or something. Any recommendation?.
Are you using to silicone lube for the guide rods as well?
This bike is lame compared to Torque's Assault bike. Even though its twice the price, but higher quality.
I have been watching your videos and I got the same T3 rack along with the lat pull down machine, is there any way I can make my lat pull down as an adjustable pulley as well. I have a very limited space, trying to see how I can make the lat pull down as an adjustable pulley.
Hmm...that's a good question. I've some add an extension cable to use it as a belt squat. I'm not sure about converting it to an adjustable pulley. Here's a related video from KaizenDIYGym on the belt squat idea: ua-cam.com/video/AVBwrUOar-I/v-deo.htmlsi=jzgTUOZhM_e7X-lo
Awesome. Thank you!! The official video was Crap!!
Yeah I totally agree. Glad it was helpful!
I cannot thank you enough for the cable routing! I could have never done this without you. If you have a Venmo will send you $
Glad it was helpful! No need for sending $$. Hope you enjoy it👍

Just installed mine a few weeks ago with the help of your other video! Been great for my setup so far!
Great to hear! Glad it was helpful. Hope you love it👍
What kind of weight have you been able to do with this? Worried about using something like this for heavy work.
Most I've done is maybe 150lbs. I don't typically lift that heavy. I think the total capacity is around 300lbs.👍
The wheels and plastic holding the wheels broke off mine. Very disappointed.
That's too bad!
Hey man I just came across your page when I was looking for a remedy for the ring holder from Titan. Even had the exact same rings! (destiny?) Extremely helpful! I also have the Titan T-3 (updated) rack and am loving it. Subscribed to all videos keep doing what you do brother!
Thanks for the kind words and feedback!
Do you feel the need to bolt it down?
I found some good used cable attachments on the mercari seller app.
Great video!! Have you found any type of angle mount like you mentioned to get it away from the wall?
Unfortunately no. I've been on the lookout, but I haven't fount anything.😢
Why did you move to Germany

My rack is also a T-3. I did the exact same thing about 4 years ago. Because the numbers are on the front you will find that the numbers will rub off as you take off and on the j-hooks. If you apply the numbers to the side the j-hooks will not rub the numbers off. Thank you for your videos.
That's good to know. That crossed my mind that they might rub off over time. I may apply additional stickers to the side.👍
Good Idea. I have to offer some video criticism. You need to talk faster because you are talking way too slow. I think your videos will be better received if you talk with a more natural rhythm.
I frown upon the fact the Mad Spotters know many, many people use Power Blocks but they didn't make this product to support them.
That's definitely a drawback!

We bought our MYX secondhand and do not have the original purchaser's information. Any idea How we can we set up an account and utilize the functions on the monitor? Thanks.
Hmm...I would guess you need to factory reset and set up an account. The programming is now through BODI by Beach Body.

I was going to go with 2 wedges, but yea I figured that it would be annoying to have to line them up perfectly. Also I found that when the heels are elevated, I can then very comfortably squat deep with a narrow stance with my feet facing straight forward, really putting it mostly on the quads, which is great for using 1 longer wedge. Then the trouble is finding a wedge that isn't so wide, because it needs to easily fit through the middle of my Rogue trap bar for my trap bar squats (squat movement pattern). Thinking about exercise a lot, and how to further optimise what you're after, can lead you to some weird places lol.
Yeah I recently bought a new all-rubber wedge.👍 Here is my video on that: ua-cam.com/video/s5eOxGkZUN8/v-deo.html
It appears you forgot to mention how many degrees the angle is, but I see the link in the description says they're 20 degrees.
You saved me so much time! My top cable doesn’t go all the way to the ground for ab pull-downs. So probably going to buy an additional chain to attach when needed. Absolutely love this addition to my rack. I can even put my feet under the bottom rail for sit-ups as it’s the perfect height! I also lubricated the pulleys like in your other video. Gave a 👍 thanks again bro
Glad the video was helpful! I'm definitely a fan of getting additional functionality out of all my equipment.👍
I worry more about 2 years down the road and the Cables that are so thin
Well if it makes you feel any better I've had mine for over 4 years and there's no issue with the cables. I suppose that comes down to the overall load capacity...
I just put together the tall rack in basement , too tall for 8 foot to clear so SAWZALL used to take off 2 inches and clearance good now. i have 36 inch deep version and lat attachment is next . which requires 15 inches clearing back wall behind it for the tallest standard Olympic plates or Bumper plates.now all very tight and sturdy as it sets on Rubber fatigue Matting on floor. #225 for try ut on squats and no shaking nor floppy . this comes with a second 2 inch pullup bar that can be added as extra Bracing strength I will find a place to attach later
Sounds like an awesome setup! In retrospect, I probably would get the 36" depth version. 24" is too shallow. Love the sawzall to make it work!👍
No chest? No legs? How is it full body Plus it helps to do compounds first and isolations like bicep curls last
Thank you for the help with the pulley system. Kicked my AZZZZZZZZZZ.
No worries. Glad it was helpful 👍
Will this work on Rogue monster lite 5/18 hole size?
I don't think so. I believe the Monster lite uses 3x3 tubing. My rack is 2x3
How tall are they vertically?
24" of usable length
How much length does this attachment add to the rack? I have a small garage and I’ve been considering this. Also I have the leg extension attachment, do you think it will interfere?
You'll need 15-20" off the back of your rack. I'm not sure about the leg extensions attachment since I don't have it.
Thank you for your clear and concise instructions around the pulley system. Absolutely could not have figured this out with out you taking the time to make this video. Great job!
Really happy to hear that. Thanks for the feedback and glad it was helpful.
