I’d love to see a review of Major Lutie’s Lightning F35 and any other similar folding racks. For those of us that have very little space, these types of racks are very appealing.

@Frennemydistinction 5 ай бұрын

That model offers a lot of versatility with how you can set the posts at different widths. Close together you go seated rows; wide apart is good for flies. One concern is that the posts stand on casters.

For anyone who might be interested I switched out all the plastic pulleys to aluminum on my Major Lutie rack and when I measured the before and after it looks like there was about 2.5 pounds less drag with the aluminum pulleys. What I did was stand on a scale and vertically pull down on one of the cables and held it steady while measuring my weight. I then switched out the pulleys and did the same test. I did this at both low weight (15 pounds) and higher weight (50 pounds) and they both showed a difference of around 2.5 pounds. The aluminum pulleys made a big difference in the feel of lightweight exercises but as weight goes up the difference becomes less noticeable. If I remember correctly cost for all the pulleys was about $200.

On a completely unrelated note I'm not a gamer but have been using a virtual reality headset for cardio the past couple months. I've always had a hard time making myself do cardio but this has been a game changer. Thrill of the fight and Supernatural have been my go-to 'games.' As I set up my garage gym I'm leaving plenty of extra floor space for this. Maybe non-traditional cardio options could be an interesting video.

@shhyman94 9 ай бұрын

I've got this exact rack. Love it. If I had to pick an issue with it, it would be two things. First is that if you are doing a lower cable workout with the pulley's at the bottom and have some decent weight on, the rack shifts. Of course, you can bolt it or weigh it down. My second gripe is I had a rack before that had an additional lat pull-down assembly that worked great. I got this and with the pulley at the highest setting, there is not enough length to do a lat pull-down unless you sit on the floor... which isn't ideal. There is the pull-up crossbar so, adjust but, still love lat pull-downs. Other than that, this rack is awesome, strong, sturdy, and not terribly expensive. Good buy.

Major-Lutie (now rebranded as Major Fitness) has made a number of attachments available since this review came out including lever arms, monolifts, a seated leg extension/hamstring curl that can also be used as a bulldog pad. Some of the attachments look like they have some pretty interesting features. For example the lever arms can lock into several positions and can also be adjusted in the horizontal direction and include a retracting belt squat stand. I would love to see these attachments reviewed in the context of increasing the versatility of this budget friendly rack.

Can you compare with Bells of Steel cable towers? The BOS cables (2 of them) can be used as a squat rack. If its a true 3/3 then it would be compatible with all the attachments offered by the major companies (rogue, rep, etc.). I think that would make it a better purchase. Two cable towers being around $700.

I've got this exact rack from a different brand. If you're diligent you can get it $100-200 cheaper than the Major Lutie version, but without the bench. I like it a lot except for some minor things: - The pulleys are difficult to move up and down, it could be that I tightened it too much. - The weight sled for the pulley interferes w/ my bench, I can barely get the bench deep enough in the rack for incline benching. - The landmine tightening bolt's plastic came broken in mine, can adjust it w/ a screwdriver, but I never use it so YMMV.
