Great video! Some people who have used the Cable Tower V2 have commented that it is not tall enough for full ROM on lat pull downs for people with long torsos or arms. What is the distance between the bottom of the lat pull bar and the top of the seat (or top of the bench if you don't have a seat)? Thanks.

Its probably because they have the super bench which is about 21 inches from the ground. I have it along with the v2 tower and its exactly that high as far as mine goes. Im 5'10 and its more than enough for me.The pro bench thats shown in this video is about 17 inches off the ground. So getting the pro bench will get you 4 inches more play.
@tomjones82353 жыл бұрын
@@DoritosResidue Thanks for your response. I already have a bench from outside the Ironmaster universe, so I would prefer to get the seat attachment rather than one of the superbenches. The seat is the same height as the original super bench, so it is more like 20 or 21 inches high. I am just under 6'0" with arms that are slightly longer than usual. Do you think that the extra five or six inches (three or four inches of additional height of the seat plus two inches of additional height of me) will eliminate resistance at the beginning/top of the lat pull? From your video, it looks like it will be close. I appreciate your thoughts on this. Thanks.

@@futbol1972 I would recommend the cable tower seat as it is very easy to add/remove and takes up ALOT less space. Before the seat came out though, I was using the super bench. Although it worked fine it became a little annoying and cumbersome to attach/detach in a small room. If you don’t mind that, then the super bench will work just fine. If you have the room, buy the cable tower seat and make it a permanent stand alone cable tower. I still have to remove mine when not in use because of space constraints.
