@garretthohn 4 ай бұрын

I’ve been wondering while eyeing this machine from a far… is there any reason why one couldn’t flip the smith machine around and have it face the back upright? Just trying to see what some customizing options are. Also, ritfit’s rep couldn’t give me an answer but when the smith bar is at the very top in the locked position, how much space is between it and the floor? I’m wondering if I could walk under it? Thanks a bunch!

@zain_kolsy 4 ай бұрын

@@garretthohn I wanted to flip the smith upside down and I asked them the same thing, and they couldn't answer, so I just bought it and did it. I wanted the Smith to be able to go lower for hip thrusts. With the Smith flipped upside down, the highest locked position leaves the Smith machine bar at about 61" but now at the bottom, with the safety arms dropped to the floor (I also removed one of the rubber stoppers since it had 2 stacked on each side) the bar now goes 11" from the ground. Even before flipping the Smith, you couldn't freely walk under it, and I couldn't really do any overhead presses so flipping it increased functionality and didn't reduce any stability or anything. Definitely would recommend doing that! As for attaching it towards the back of the rack, you can do it, but it will likely get in the way of the plate storage. Also, you won't be able to put the rack up against the wall because you won't be able to position yourself under the bar to do a lot of movements

@garretthohn 4 ай бұрын

@@zain_kolsyPhenomenal response! This answers so many questions. For a little clarification, if I were to put the smith in the back of the rack, I'd split up the weight storage. Two pegs in the back, two pegs of plates in the front. I need to be a foot or two away from a wall anyways (mirrors). It's good to know what you can't walk under the bar in the stowed position up high. I figure with the bar tucked in the back, it would become much less of an issue. I've got another question for you. Are you happy with the quality and glide of the Smith attachment in general? I'll be honest, it's about 75 percent of the reason I'd go with this setup. There aren't that many smith + cage options (without lat pull down -- I'm gonna get a separate cable pulley tower for that to spread out the gym) on the market. Thank you so much!

@zain_kolsy 4 ай бұрын

@@garretthohn I'm glad to help!! The weight storage may get in the way on the front side when you're doing squats and things on the front side of the rack though, so take that into consideration I love it, honestly the quality is better than I expected! The Smith glides smooth (it's not counter balanced, but a very light starting weight so my wife has no issues with it). I got it because of how compact it is, I didn't want any pulleys since I have a separate lat pulldown as well as a functional trainer. Although I'm using a full 2 car garage, with all the equipment I have I'm starting to get tight on space so I went with this. Rack works well (considering the posts are 2x2), I've benched and squated using it, no issues with the j cups or safety spotter arms (didn't load it super heavy, but 225+). I've used the Smith with up to about 285, had no issues with it! It has a little sway side to side but that's only if you deliberately rock it side to side, when I just it for hip thrusts and stuff, it's smooth!

@garretthohn 4 ай бұрын

Thanks again for the response and good points. I can punch 1 inch holes into the uprights to drop the plate storage just an inch or two above the ground as to not interfere with deep squats so no issues there. Are the uprights a true 2x2 i.e do rack attachments fit the way they should? Cheers 🍻

I bought a fit505 multifunctional smith machine about a year ago and have been super happy with it (as beginner). Has smith, uprights for barbell standouts, two cable pulleys for weights (not weight stack), pullup bar, and some storage hooks for weights and attachments. I definitely notice its definitely not as good as a more expensive quality machine but at the price only $1600 canadian including shipping you get alot of value.

I purchased this right after the holidays. I have a gym membership, but I wanted something for my home gym that I could lift heavier with at home that is safer than my squat rack. Also, my son has expressed an interest in starting to lift, and I thought this would be ideal for him to start with since he is too shy to go to the gym. I have been happy with it so far. The pulley system is smooth. It does take 2 people to put it together, but it is not difficult and takes maybe 1.5 to 2 hours...thanks for the review!

I bought this a few weeks ago and just ordered the midas mini barbell to replace the one that came with the machine. The mini is about 1.5 inches longer but it will change the load i am able put on the smith part of the machine for squats. Keep in mind if you go that route to overload it you will have to either weight the back down and maybe add more plates to the plates to the lat pulldown depending on how much you are trying yo push it to. You will also have to remove the sleeves from the midas bar to install it. The midas mini is also on sale right now for 187.

Great video as usual. Can you do a video or a series that talks about what makes any given piece of equipment good, better, best and how much it affects the quality of the machine. You kind of touch on it when you do product reviews like in this one you mentioned the bushings vs bearings, and you showed the bushings. It would be awesome to have a video or series that went into detail about various "decisions" manufacturers make with their equipment quality. Like you didn't really go into detail about bearings on this one and how each of them differently affect the movement of the Smith Machine. I imagine the bushings allow for a back and forth motion instead of completely transferring your movement into up and down. I've been lifting for a long time and I know there are different pulley systems, and I can tell if it's crap when I use it, but I can't tell if it's going to be smooth by looking at it. Most of us are making decisions based on your videos and pictures. Really appreciate everything that your channel creates. Thank you.

Hey Coop! I went down the rabbit hole with Smith Machines for a while. I was going to get the Bulletproof VTS but they teased it for so long I eventually gave up. Somehow I lucked into the Black November Eleiko sale - they had their Prestera Smith Attachment marked down to a fifth of the price. They then tried to pull the rug out and say it was a mistake and they could do the attachment without a bar. I eventually got them to throw in the bar for a little bit more. All I can say is that I am supremely happy - the Eleiko Prestera Smith Attachment fits right into my REP PR-5000 rack just behind my Athena Functional Trainer (I’m using an 8-post rack with a 41” deep section for squats and bench, then a 16” section for the smith machine, then a 16” section for the Athena). Not only is it awesome for me, but now the kids, wife, and friends come over non-stop to use my gym (which I did not expect but it’s pretty cool). Everyone loves the combo of the Athena up front and then Eleiko Smith behind.

If I had my own barbell, could I use it in place of the one that comes with it?

I want this but can I use my 1 inch standard weight plates on it? I was waiting for you to mention that it is it only for the 2 inch weight plates I don’t have any of those

How does this stack against the ER KANG Power Rack Cage with Cable Pulley System?

What do you think about the DoNow Smith machine? It seems like this one just a few bucks more and has a few more bells and whistles like the chest flys. Please keep up the good work, especially the budgets reviews for us poors lol

Coop for a tween / teen just starting to lift is a Smith machine the way to go wrt safety? If so, this one may just fit the bill

Can you do bicep and triceps exercises on the pulley as well? Is that convenient with the 1:1 weight transfer?

How do you know the pulley ratio ? (New to this)

Seems like a good option for a starter Smith Machine...for someone transitioning from a commercial gym.
