Back to the boards and thought I'd share my second review/opinion article, this time it's on some of the cable attachments I own so far.
Here's the link to my reviews...

That lat bar looks like a beast. I'm going to consider it down the road for sure.

Haven't been able to "rep" many of you for a year or more...not for lack of trying.

C123C, it's a great attachment and I find that I use it quite often. If you do land up getting one at some point then I recommend the black BBP cause the powdercoat is a semi-gloss (most likely the closest to the FBBs powdercoat which is pretty tough).
My gold one is holding up quite well, but as with most full gloss coats it might be a bit more prone to scratches down the road, if that's a concern and you want to just assure it stays a bit more scratch resistant, I would go with the black.▪█─────█▪ Equipment Crew #80 ▪█─────█▪

Ecto, thanks for the support. I'm thinking of making a sequel to the "Cable attachments" series when I get more attachments added to my list and have another upcoming article on its way.

Good write up/reviews, I've been thinking about picking up the American barbell seated row handle and I'm thinking about getting one of their revolving curl bars or straight bars for straight arm pull downs unless someone has a better suggestion?

Also been thinking about ordering a set of these from EliteFTS for facepulls,

Turbo, thanks and you definitely can't go wrong with the AB attachments, another suggestion as far as the straight revolving bar is concerned is this one at 1.5" thick and they have them in the choice of 14", 20" and 26" length by Black Iron Strength...

Credit goes to rpark for mentioning this one to me when asking about thick bar attachments.▪█─────█▪ Equipment Crew #80 ▪█─────█▪

I realize this isn't a cable attachment but you seem to be an attachment junkie and thought you might like it. They do have some other interesting pieces but i'm not really sure how useful any of them would be. I've never seen them mentioned on the forums before.

My goal is to have so much equipment that I don't have room to workout. I am almost there. :)
