      The question is if they'll include an adapter for 1" holes for people who have a pr4000 and an Adonis. (definitely not me, though, that's not at all what I've been planning to buy😂).

    @REPfitness Місяць тому +36

    Thanks Gluck! I think the 'why didn't I think of this?' question is answered here... because, to best honest, it was really hard to create something that functions really well for multiple uses while still being very sturdy. We almost gave up and just made a separate seat and separate chest support pad like everyone else, but we didn't give up after the 5th prototype, and ended up making something we are really proud of innovating.
    We tested a lot of what was out there - either overly built to the point of annoying to use/move it, wobbly or lifted up during pull downs, or had bolts that had to be slid in while lifting a heavy attachment - again, hard/annoying to use. To have a seat that didn't wobble or 'pull up' while doing pull downs, was easy to move, had all that adjustability packed into one seat/pad attachment that wasn't annoying to adjust with bolts popping out and having to hold it, and leg rollers that could be removed and used for other purposes. It was all of these solutions packed into one product that was really hard to create. Pretty proud of this one. We hope everyone enjoys it.
    Most importantly, congratulations on the new baby coming!

      It may be somewhat of a knock-off hodge podge lol, but it's apparently executed decently well and less than half the price of anything comparable at $270 (they have a $30 off coupon code: 8KTHZZ6ZCQ85 right now).
      Given the price and features it seems like a very solid bench, so I'd really be curious to see your take on it! At least as an option for a good quality, versatile FID bench that's more accessible to many people than typical premium options costing $600+.

    The best thing about Gluck in Ms. Winnie. Talks to much about nothing and Coop looks like he works out more.

    You are the best reviewer and my favorite. It's alright, though that you are cross with me, I really get it. I started telling the truth in the comments and giving my opinion on things then you dismissed me and left less and less replies, even to the point where my questions to you were not getting answered. I even said true but not flattering things about some reviewers.
    Some of this was done on purpose to see what response I would get from you and some because it's all a racket and most other reviewers are entirely too fake and annoying.
    I thought we were on the same page. I quickly saw we were not. Replies to my comments became farther and farther apart to the point where my questions to you were not even getting answered.
    I respect your busy schedule and life, I really do but thats not gonna work as a response to me as I can tell from the comments as to the time they were left and your reply that you pick through them and reply to the ones you desire. After a few of those negative comments you put me in the trash pile.
    Honestly, all I did was tell the truth and offer somr of my own opinions and that's all it took for you to dismiss me.
