I bought a G6 because of space issues and love it. So much packed into a super tiny foot print and the quality is great. Putting together was 8 hours just me using my tools to speed it up. Really love the leg press attachment for the smith bar! To get around the 2:1 ratio for rowing and pull downs I got Bare Steel stack pin. The 2:1 is still the way to go with all the trainer attachments it comes with. So darn cool! My boxes were similarly exploded. Just a little powder coat damage on the frame but the shipping company was great about documenting in case I ended up needing something since it was impossible to tell on delivery.

I CANT WAIT FOR THE ARES REVIEW!!!

Wow after teasing screen shots of force USA stuff for years.. you finally review something of theirs. It’s a miracle!!

Me here patiently waiting for the REP ARES reviews to start coming in now that they're shipping out 🙏🙏

I would very much appreciate if you could include the metric measurements as an overlay when you mention anything inches. It would help us international viewers, who also appreciates home gym equipment from the land of CONUS. Thank you 👍

Sheesh that collection of unassembled parts was crazy. I have always been curious about the ForceUSA racks, so this review was super cool.

I’d love to see a review for one of these in that $1000 to $1500 price range…. On a leverage gym in the same price range…. I don’t see anyone doing these

I've been seeing ads for their racks for weeks now! They certainly look super cool but also super expensive!! Thanks for reviewing these!

we need a head to head comparison with the prime HLP rack!

Great review! I always appreciate your honesty. I don't think this rack is for me. I'll stick with my Titan X3, but I just enjoy seeing different equipment.

Definitely spot on at the beginning. Went from powerblocks and a squat rack with hi/low pulleys to an inspire scs and Dumbbell wall. Was an excellent upgrade

Love your stuff man! Tryng to put together a setup now and all your videos are a difference maker.

Yay. Been waiting so long for this review..

I've looked into Force USA gear in the past. None of the reviews featuring their products seem very genuine and it is almost like the brand pays a whole heap of fitness influencers to talk up their gear. This is particularly true for all those videos featuring that Stevie Richards guy, I can't stand them. Thanks for doing an honest review Coop 👍.

*Just get the ironamster IM2000 and the inspire FTX* *It's cheaper in cost, and better in build*

I have the G15Pro and I love it's 2:1/4:1 selectable ratio pulleys. Not a big fan of the smith machine but it's still decent. My only dislike about it is that is 2" x 2" uprights with 5/8" holes (And only front/rear, the side holes are even smaller). It's so difficult to find aftermarket accessories for it.

You are right, I don't see what this does that the Rep Ares can't do...I am still surprised Rogue hasn't done a better job with this style of rack/functional trainer combo...YET.

One thing that I hear in a lot of your reviews is "what type of person would this be good for" and you may be missing an opportunity to broaden that idea to "what type of people would this be good for". I could see this piece being good for a couple who have different exercise goals or routines, or one person lifting and another rehabbing, or involving teen kids who want to start exercising, etc. You could even ask the manufacturers who they typically see buying these types of rigs. You're right that it's a very small niche of persons who this rig would be good for, but it would make sense to talk about what types of households this would be good for too. Just an idea. Love all the videos!

Great review, glad to finally see something on ForceUSA. Why have we never gotten an Ironmaster Im2000 review? With Coop’s love of other Ironmaster products and the fact that the rack seems to be designed specifically for home gyms, I would have expected to see something on it by now

Thanks Coop. Very good and honest review. This thing is not worth the price. I bought an old Icarian Lat pull down machine, and a cheap Functional Trainer from Costco (Inspire Fitness brand). So all under $1800, I am all set.

The 4 post ares option is going to be a game changer.

I was 99 percent going for prime fitness single column and the other day saw the Ares form Rep Fitness and was actually impressed. Now I'm really looking on spending that money on the Ares. Great video, this wouldn't be for me.

Final glad I've seen you do this review....this is what I'm looking to buy...

When I saw the adverts on You Tube, which go for a minute and a half and gives you a good idea of what it will do, my first question besides how much, was how do you get that in the basement and how to put it together. So thank you for explaining those details along with all your other bits of information. Quite the machine that's for sure.

Can you do a review of the cheap power racks on Amazon that have functional cable trainers on them? Like the Mikalo or Major Lutie? Thanks! Love your content!

Have a G1 at home, I really should have saved for a fancier varient, something with Smith options. but after 2 years it still looks like new, not a single plastic roller has broken so it is well built.

Coop, the review was very good. I'm not a big fan of the camera work, those side shots while you are talking are just weird to me. I was kinda surprised at the end of the video where your comments came off as being very negative, but I do understand, those lat pull downs would be very difficult for a guy my size. Thank you for all your time and effort.

This channels quality has ⬆️⬆️⬆️ 🚀

Really interested in seeing the full G20 review. That one is on my list of potential home gym purchases.

I've watched the REP Ares engineering videos and looked at their photos... etc. The Ares blows this out of the water. Crazy they have 50" width to... you would hit your plates every time you re-rack. Chrome looks a bit cheap, the holes on the side don't allow for modularity... 140lbs for a lat pull down or low row is silly. All for like $7,500+ with shipping and some attachments... no thanks.

I'm watching a Coop video while it looks like a Coop video is playing on the screen behind him. Everyone loves Coop's videos.

50" width is pretty much a deal breaker. What were they thinking?

Can you please review bolt fitness supply out of houston tx? Their equipment looks like its good quality for a much cheaper price tag. They have some really cool looking adjustable dumbells as well. They have a good stock of items they offer from what I can see. Thanks man!

COOP!!!! “Bodycraft RFT Rack” really similar to this and should be better at a better price point. You should totally review that one! If you can even get your hands on one!

I love your reviews! Very helpful :)

I thought this was a great review, Coop, well done!

You can get the Rep 5000 series with the lat pulldown/low row and Athena side stacks for nearly the same price.

50'' width is too much for a rack. I stopped paying attention after that.

Having heard Coop mispronounce Kratos and Ares at this point is just brutal to my ears.

Nice review, very nice editing

Great review, I would love to see a review of the Force USA F100 vs some of the other Force USA options or other companies.

Thanks for the review Coop I really appreciate it. I have been looking for a all in on functional trainer for my garage. I don't have a lot of room but need something that will do a little of everything.

7:28 love it!! 💪🏼☺️

Coop, you need to review the Gympin. It completely allows you to circumvent the weight limitations to the 2:1 ratio on the lat pulldown and low row. Also the new model has a separate lat pulldown/row attachment that you can buy, that is 1:1.

Nice review, thanks 👍

At the price...... go with the Prime Fitness Prodigy Rack. I can't speak enough of how fucking amazing the rack is. I have the selectorized version..... that comes with 350 lb stacks!!! It's a primo piece and costs the same as this offering from ForceUSA..... and just doing an eyeball test - it looks like Prime's offering is built more like a tank..... not that it looks like this FOrceUSA rack is going anywhere. The Prime is just..... mwah. It's perfection. When I finally stumbled on the Prime Prodigy Rack it was like opening the case in Pulp fiction. It's the rack I've ALWAYS pictured in my head as being the IDEAL rack. It takes up less a footprint than a 6 post rack, it's a half rack, it's a solid functional trainer..... that also has a fixed high pulley at a 1:1 ratio so you pretty much have a legit high pulley machine for lat pulldowns and the like. It''s just.... perfection. This offering from Force looks solid too.... I can only speak for Prime though as I own one and do NOT regret buying it whatsoever even though it cost me an arm and a leg. I sold my Rogue RML690 for $2,000 though so the actual gut punch to my wallet wasn't too bad. I think with all the attachments I bought when I initially bought the Prime Prodigy Selectorized Rack was about $7,500. The base rack alone costs $5500...... this ForeUSA base price is..... $6,000. Just saying. As for the Ares. I guess if you own a Rep rack it's a nice add on item..... For like $2,800. I guess if you don't have the space for the CHEAPER Rep Functional trainer it makes sense.... I guess. Whatever you go with.... I feel the Prodigy Rack, this ForceUSA offering, and the Ares are all better options than Rogue's Cave system they came out with. That's insanely priced and has a much larger footprint.... and when you get the uprights you really want - IF you can get the uprights you really want (pretty limited if you have short ceilings if memory serves last I checked). I do like the wider uprights so you could do legitimate cable crossovers, but man. It's big and it's DAMN pricey. At the end of the day I still feel like the Prodigy rack is hard to beat. Yes I am biased. But for the Rep and Ares fanboys..... Sell your rack and get the Prodigy and you'll be convinced - I guarantee it. And if you get the like $230 50lb stack add on plates to get the Ares up to a SINGLE 350 lb stack.... that's over $3,000...... for a rack add on item. Yikes. The Prodigy comes with a 350 lb stack..... TWO of them. For $5500. Just saying. It's why if someone who is seriously looking at the Ares who already owns a Rep Rack that the Ares will work on I'd recommend just selling your Rack for like $800-$1,000...... and get the Prodigy. I mean at that point it would cost you $4500-$4700 once you factor in the money you got for your rack..... that's only $1500-1700 more than the Ares ATTACHMENT and the Prodigy can do more.... and do it better. But I get cost is always the stumbling block for most people and $3,000 is always less than $4500-5500.... or more once you start adding Prodigy attachments. Personally though..... I'm thinking if people are willing to shell out $2700-3000 for just a rack attachment; selling their current rack and buying the prodigy for $5500 won't scare them too much. Side note..... just noticing this is a full rack with stacks. And the X15 is what I should be comping to the Prodigy Rack. In that case - the ForceUSA is slightly the better deal as the X15 comes in at "only" $5,000 to the Prodigy's $5,500 price tag...... Still team Prime all the way. It's just a stellar rack system. I am almost tempted to get the Prodigy plate loaded rack just because I want to check out the black physics magic they use to change the adjustable pulley ratio from 2:1 to 4:1 by simply inserting or removing a pin down on the bottom. Oh... and that Prime Prodigy plate loaded rack..... comes in at $4,850...... so you could still say Prime is the better option.... depending on what option from Prime you go with, haha. And while you'd be sacrificing the selectorized super ease of use and quickness for a plate loaded version..... again, the Prodigy plate loaded has a pin you insert or remove to make the adjustable upright pulley go from a 4:1 to a 2:1 ratio or vice versa...... whenever you feel like it. What!? Prime.... FTW in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, the alternatives out there are pretty cool in their own right...... but again, Prime - mwah *chef's kiss*

Can you do the G12 as a review?

1:1 ratio would be nice. you can just add a length of chain to get more ROM

Skipped to 10:37 for pricing. $6k? I don't need to know anything else; waaaaay outside of my price range

Points for having yourself the background tv.

I bought the G20 a few months ago before this was available and have some regrets but overall I like the versatility of the G20. Quality is a little below par and the 2x2 uprights are annoying. I've hacked my cables and converted to 2:1 ratio. Took me 10 hours to assemble with my wife so those 'pros' who assembled for you are taking the piss. Good review though

Hard to believe there’s no UHMW plastics on the attachments, especially with Chrome. I’m very happy with my ForceUSA MyRack w/ candle attachments, but for this price, they need to step up the features. 50” is mind boggling dumb as well. Not sure how any manufacturer can put out a new product that doesn’t take into account the feedback about Rogue’s dimensions.

It took 3 guys 5 hours. I've built one of these by myself in 8 hours but I also build G-Forces for a living. The assembly part is straight forward, its the unpacking & moving to the build location. Hate that part especially when I'm by myself.

I have an idea for a review video. Seeing how you're on KZfaq, you could do a review on the equipment company's KZfaq channels. Comparing their different channels to each other. For instance, REP is really good about introducing their new products on KZfaq and you have Titan put out a video of alternating hammer curls. I like both companies but it's apparent which one is better about showing us their new equipment on KZfaq. Me personally I think with all the strives Titan has made becoming a better company they don't do as good of a job showing us their equipment. I don't know let me know what you think.

Can you review the Aries?

I have the G12

Put the gym pin on the cable stack to gain some capacity to it

I wish they made an option to go between 2:1 to 1:1 depending on the exercise you wanna do.

We need some Bolt Fitness reviews!

I think you’re underestimating how many people would find this a near one stop shop

I would check out the Bodycraft RFT Pro which is very similar to this for under $4,000. Also Tuff Stuff out of California is coming out with a new version of their CPR-265x with a similar configuration

Thanks for the video. You mentioned the names of other companies in this same space. Which one of those companies offers the best product though?

Waiting on the g20. I bought it and love it, but waiting to see what you have to say.

If you want a cable setup for full range of cable exercises whats better value play - a Rep Aries setup or standalone cable setup? Separately - GHDs or GHD hybrid with reverse hyper - any comparison on different brand versions. It would seem like a good idea to have the hybrid version but does it work as well as advertised (Titan/Rogue). Especially for garage guys - is it worth the space it takes up?

Yes

Can you do a review of Major Lutie pieces? Suppose ot be budget friendly but concerned it is too budget friendly....

Hey Coop, This or Rep Ares? If money doesn't matter. Cheers boss.

When is the G20 coming? Looks awesome!

Devil is in the details for sure 💸💸💸

Biomechanicly you want to pull at some kind of angle when doing latpull down

100% would get the REP ARES over this

I am ready to pull the trigger on the G20 or the jacked up Pro all in one, which one would you actually purchase for your garage buuild ?

Let's go you got my interest

Bought a leg press/hack squat combo, and the “my bench” with the preacher and leg curl/leg extension attachments when I first started the Home gym venture. bench sucks leg press is ok, knowing what I know now after 2 years of building my gym I would have gone elsewhere.

Holding out for rep ares But I have rogue monster lite rack... Hoping to find out if the ares will be compatible with the uprights I already have

I've heard their trap bar is good, but didn't know anything else about force usa

Thanks Coop! Are there any smith machines that you can add to the rogue monster lite or rep pr 4000 series. It would be a great add on attachment.?

I am just starting to look into power racks and I am just starting to understand them and every company have different attachments. In theory, it doesn't matter (excluding the quality question for the moment) brand of rack you get, correct? You can frankensteinize them by getting the attachments from the different brands you want as long as it has the right hole size, 3x3 up rights, and in some cases the same cross member's width?

wonder how the Jacked Up Power Rack PRO All-In-One compares

Coop, U can always add weight if u get the sleeve that adds on the selectorized stack though right?

Woohoo g20 review coming

Any recommendations for pulley systems, besides DIY, for those of us with Rogue R3 racks with the 2 x 3 posts? Bummer that Rogue has moved away from supporting theses racks with accessories.

Hey its Bart Kritchner!

Have you reviewed inspire fitness’ ft2 yet? I feel like the kind of person who’d wanna buy this would prefer that. Would love to see you review the ft2. I bought one after watching all your videos for years lol

Coop. You ever going to buy the ridiculous TYTAX T3X.

You said the G20 was very expensive but they are the same price down to the penny

Any jacked up brand reviews?

I think the g15 pro has 2:1 and 4:1 ratio now

Is the G20 acctually getting change to a 2:1 ratio as you mention in the video?

I don't really know who this is marketed for. It combines multiple things (power rack, storage, cables etc.) but won't do any of them as well as the standalone alternatives which, if bought separately, will work out cheaper. Probably significantly cheaper too. The only person I see this being of value to is someone who is so short of space that they need an all in one. But then is the person short on space going to be splashing $6k on a gym equipment? Perhaps it's for the person living in a flat who chose location over space, I don't know. But there can't be many of those people out there who want a home gym, surely?

does jacked up fitness just not exist? i have only seen 1 review on the jacked up power rack pro

Im going to be mounting a power rack on the side of my bus. Although i know they are not made for outside, which one would you recommend for outdoors?

Who makes the Sweet looking dumbbells

Notice thr label on thr boxes? Made in PRC this stands for peoples republic of china. Its the way they are attempting to circumvent the anti-china sentiment. With that said I love the idea. I'm kind of building something similar in a half rack that is modular and folds into the wall. But that is my hobby it's not for everyone.

Just think you could have one of these, or a bathtub that cools water for the same price.

Can u review the force usa leg press and hack squat combo machine?

What about comparing the rogue cave or sorinex apex rack

Hello i like your vidéo i'm french i make my rack multifonction in my Monster Garage my rack IS the best j'espère pouvoir le commercialiser un jour j'adorerais pouvoir le montrer ! good job men

Up here in Toronto, Canada - there are a few other companies doing all in one systems - seems like of you are willing to compromise on the enclosed power rack you can get much better value

ratios dont have to do with travel. it has to do with the difficulty of the weight..OR thats what ive always been told.Whats the final word??
