So you can't use a barbell and do free weight bench press?

@RickySchumacher_Zarriff 2 жыл бұрын

Great videos! I see you're back to the SCS. Curious question that I cannot seem to find an answer to... I see you have a barbell and a rack off to the side. I've been thinking about getting the FT2 and a separate half rack for a barbell, but space could be an issue. Do you feel that using a barbell alongside the smith machine on the SCS is practical, or is the space in there too tight to work with? Or is the positioning going to be too awkward to make any real sense?

@jcard959 2 жыл бұрын

For me the space is to tight, especially for squats. I’ll make a video using that portion of the machine so you could get an idea of how much space your working with.

Great question, I mean if you can't use the free weights sections at the back isn't it a pretty useless feature I've seen some systems have this in the front

I wish they made them a little wider for taller people with a bigger wingspan

Debating between the titan selectorized lat pull down plus costco ftx OR just combine both with the scs inspire or maybe the ft2. I already have a rack.

What you end up doing? I’m thinking of the Costco one as well

@Tony I ended up getting titan selectorized lat pull down and inspire selectorized functional trainer. Also got titannx3 foldable rack and will add ether a rhino or squat max

Can someone help me with this question: If each stack goes up to 165 lbs, and the weight ratio of this machine is 2:1, does it mean that you are actually pulling twice less that what is written on the stack, or is the stack actually twice heavier than what is written on it?

@Somtric 2 жыл бұрын

A ratio of 2:1 halfs the weight, yes. However, cable weight is not 1:1 with free-weight and can actually be harder. But generally, yes. But if you take a machine like the FT2, the smith bar can double the weight so it's basically like 1:1.

@chrisperson5092 Жыл бұрын

It's half the weight, but if you're using both sides it's equal. Example- set to 80 on both sides, you're benching 80, not 160. And as mentioned , on the Ft2 , the very simple weight multiplier cable brings it back to 1:1

Do you happen to know if you can rack an axle bar in this? I have an axle and swiss bar, both of which are 50mm diameter where they rack. By the looks of it it's not going to be compatible, which is a deal breaker for me

@jcard959 2 жыл бұрын

Yeah I don’t think it will, and if it did It’d be really awkward and unsafe

What about using a regular barbell on that thing. No Smith machine:(

@futbol1972 Жыл бұрын

Yes no?

@Somtric 2 жыл бұрын

Question, why would you buy this if you had the FT2? I honestly don't see the point, only real difference is the smith bar, but wether that goes with cable weight or freeweight, shouldn't matter much. Well, I'd love to hear why, because that has me wondering though :S Also, please do not do the vertical leg press without security bars, that could eventually go very very wrong.

@jcard959 2 жыл бұрын

I like the plate loaded option over the cable one, Feels more like a commercial quality smith machine . Plus I didn’t like the starting position for the ft2
