    For the 3rd option, why not just attach it straight to the high pulley on the lat tower? Why use the secondary pulleys and go to the low pulley attachment?

    The one attached to the tower is sweet. How did that about of weight feel with so many pullys

    • @KaizenDIYGym
      @KaizenDIYGym  Рік тому +2

      It felt great, all of these are 1:1 ratio, so the weight I put on is the weight I am lifting. The ratio only changes if the pulley is moving with the weight.

    • @brandonpatton4776

      Question: on the low pulley setup i notice you have an extra set of pulleys set to the pullup bar. Can you just connect the low pulley cable straight to your barbell mounted pulleys? And do these extra pulleys on the pullup bar affect the pull ratio?

    Hate to bend my legs all the time on cheap end of home power racks! They are so short in height like 7’ tall! Only those who are 5’ can do a pull-ups normally!😂 That another reason to by high end power racks that are 91” and 100”(same as commercial) tall!😊
