Nice setup you have there and maybe you got that idea from me, I created my DIY Cable Crossover Chest Fly/Functional Trainer setup 2 years prior to your video on Nov 2020. Anyway, looks like your power rack is much better than mine - I have a very cheap Fitness Reality Rack but all the fitness equipment I bought was a result of the Chinese Covid 19 Global Pandemic and a surprise purchase as it was for many lifters. My rack only accommodates M10 Bolts or 3/8" Bolts and so I can't get that long of an Eyebolt as you can - So I had to settle for 8" long EyeBolts. My setup is way more complex and also stays on my Rack so I don't have to keep setting it up when I want to use it. With my setup it's the better 1:2 Ratio - meaning that if I put 20 LBS on, you're really lifting 40 LBS - I know on most real Functional Trainers it's the opposite 2:1 Ratio where the lifting weight is half lighter than the actual weight. I have a picture of my setup - it's a bit cluttered but if you look close you can see my blue custom cable and the 7 pulley wheels. I improved it since this picture was taken and now I have more of the Blue Pulley Wheels and it's smooth as butter. www.proflex.fitness/5x12-work-out-island
Very nice man. I see others in the comment section like myself seeing if you could share any links to specific stuff you bought. Would be a great help. Thanks for this idea
Super clean work! I also did this with two cables at first, and then I tried it with a single large cable and an extra pulley coming straight out of the lat attachment, and it works absolutely great. Found it much more "natural". For example, if you want to use only one side, as you have the third pulley and it's only one cable, you won't have a loose cable wobbling. in addition, the exercises seems more fluid and better to isolate some muscles.
Ottima organizzazione del tuo spazio. Bravo 👍

Why not just buy another set of eyebolts for the bottom and leave them in, makes it easier to change. Good job 👍🏻

Super clean work!

got any blueprint of some sort? looking to do this myself but im not 100% sure what you mean.
got discord or anything with some pics?
that was very helpful thank you !
You can use a shorter cable with chain so that way its more versatile
Clever
Would you be able to provide us with the links to the extra parts
how far does the lat rack stick out from the back of the rack
Where did you get the pully and cable that was added on?
What ring did you use in the center?
