Hi all. Can anyone compare plate loaded and cable loaded reverse hypers? Sure, plate loaded ones (westside-pendulum style and lever-style) are more popular. But there are some “unconventional” cable...

Sadly, these pads are not naruto-approved. The pads only cant replace a real SSB, because a real SSB has to be cambered to shift its COG towards a user's COG.
Another tip: dont buy a bad cheap SSB...

Unfortunately no, the main point of a real SSB is displaced center of gravity, not pads and handles. Although comfortable padded handles are helpful.

This bar is pretty interesting, but its more like a padded cambered bar, not a real SSB.

Hi friends. Sorry for necroing this topic, but I need some guidance.
Im trying to design and build a good FT with adjustable arms. Actually the design is quite simple, but there is one thing I cant...

There is actually a Barbarian Ft with adjustable arms.

Interesting… You are right about this machine. But here is another one, a real adjustable cable column, which is much more “commercial grade” and with 2 handles

Hey dansayers. Here are some unorthodox advises. May be I will be hated by someone for my opinion, but at least I have the right to respond to your request.

Now lets start…

Hi chibi.
Regarding your question, things like 1:3, 1:4, 1:2 are called “pulley mechanical advantage”. Honestly you can google it for more detailed info if you are interested.

Yes, Richard is...

Thanks for your interest in my topic granpa.
But unfortunately no, I have not built the machine. It was too hard to find a good fitness equipment manufacturer in my country to assist me in this...

Hi chibi. Its very good she is strong and likes to train.
I think instead a common pulley machine you should consider a “cable column” or “functional trainer” - FT. Both these machines are almost...

Hi friends and happy holydays. There are some ideas about custom-made cable machine. Glad if my writing is understandable and useful for someone.

First I think the conventional cable machine...

Hi, im in the same boat as you both. But I think the “westside” style (with slightly angled short camber like Crepinsek or Elite) is a bad choice for a self-made bar. If you don’t know the actual...

Hi, you can consider something like this
1. A good rack with high/low pulley (actually pulley is extremely useful) and build-in pull-up bar. Half-rack can be a decent choise too.
2. Any (cheap or...

Besides Watson there is another interesting "unconventional" SSB manufactured by Powerlift. There is a review on youtube... Looks like its very heavy duty and can take hard punishment for decades....

Seems a custom rack with built-in extremely heavy duty high/low pulley is the only solution

Can you please link a cable squat machine with pegs? I havent seen anything like this. Are pegs under loading pins?

Hi friend. Imo this Titan bar is really bad. It has no visible angle between the camber and handles. As I understand, a good SSB must have slight angle, about 25-30 degrees, and short camber (like...
