Just checked them out. I really like those type as they look easier to repair than the solid block ones that I have. Solid set there!

Thanks again for the detailed response. I see the point about the footplate height. That said, the Hammer is around 6k new, compared to the MT which is 1k. The MT also offers the donkey calf. Yes the...

Just a quick thought......Would putting the rear end of the machine on a length of solid wood, say 10cms high, make a difference to the difficulty of the machine at the same weight. The angle would...

Yeah thats me mate! How did the dumbbells turn out? A few of mine are bent out of shape now through people dropping them :-(

Thanks for the offer to see it and I reckon I will be good to go based...

Hey I see you are in Australia! Aussie Aussie Aussie! I was over in QLD this last week at Surfers, amazing weather! SA here.

Thanks for the info thats really useful. Did you get it from Sams...

Readers, I`m just looking at these two machines and they look similar in design and function. Obviously the hammer is made from thicker steel etc and is heavier duty, but am I correct in thinking...

Thats a pretty good amount. How easy is it to max out at that weight out of interest? I remember the old powertec version could only fit around 4/5 a side I think.

Lastly, I see you have the lat...

Looks really nice mate. I love the Barbarian Stuff and Sams Fitness is a great company to deal with.

How many 20kg plates can you fit on each horn on the leg sled as I am interested in adding...

Hi all I was hoping someone could help me with an issue I have.

I recently bought a second hand Cybex hack squat. It arrived today and the carriage it runs on is really really clunky and rough. I...

Cheers buddy. That was me. Maybe I will go for a V-Squat machine instead then. Thanks.

Hey team, I was just wondering if anyone had ever used this type of machine and how it felt.

It's made by Paramount and is some kind of pendulum squat.....

Cheers all :-)

Bump

Bump to those people who have used the hip driven hack presses.

We are after a hack squat for our gym. I have only ever used the shoulder loaded ones.

I have recently seen one similar to the Hammer strength version where the load is carried by the hips. I`ve...

Yeah thats one of the machines I am considering for sure. I`ve used one before and loved it. Basically I am likely to get something like that, and then a regular hack squat which rides up and down...

Thanks for the replies. I'm based in Australia so equipment choices are somewhat limited out here. I've never seen the Swing squat out here, let alone seen one for sale for its the Paramount one or...

I was just wondering if anyone has used the following leg machine -

I`m hoping you guys can help me here.

Quick bit about me, been training for years, reasonably strong - bench 140kgs, squat 160kgs, shoulder press 40kg bells.

A few years ago I herniated my...

This looks like it will be AWESOME! Love the pics. Keep them coming.

I bought that exact machine some time ago for my home studio.

I found for me that i hurt my knees. It was a brutal machine and hit the quads but I found that I wanted the foot plate to be angled...
