This is the most honest reviewer of gym equipment on KZfaq. I've watched lots of reviews for this unit, and this is the only one that mentions the problem of the cable coming off the the track (15x!), and the arms moving during use. Thanks.

Very helpful! I love the details about things that have gone wrong, and the accessory movements you've been able to do. I'm excited to get one!!!

Great in depth review helped me with my decision.

Thank you. Your video has been the most helpful of all the ones I've viewed on YT. Much appreciated.

Kudos for the review, really helpful & insightful. I'm gonna take the plunge & get one!

Dope review! do a tour of your facility brotha

Great reviews! Love the cons added in if there is any. Also showing the exercises and variations. 👍

For a fix on the self racking when you go no hand use a magnet that is just strong enough to keep it from going forward shouldn’t affect anything else either

Informative review. Finally received mine yesterday. Thanks for demonstrating that it’s much more than a belt squat machine. Gonna try every movement from your review. Thanks!

quick question if you don't mind. i like this set up. what distance do you have between the two upright posts and the wall? i'm measuring out my gym and need to figure that out.

You can use a mini band to help hold the safety arm in place when doing hands free sets. Good review though! Just ordered mine. How long did it take to get yours?

Great video! To solve the problem with the lever arm safety being accidently engaged I purchased a pack of neodymium magnets on Amazon for about 10 USD. I place them on the handles so that they almost touch the upright when the lever arm safety is unlocked. This provides the perfect amount of hold so that the lever arm safety will not fall forward but is still easy to push the handles to engage the lever arm safety. You can also use minibands to hold the safety lever arm in the unlocked position. The safety bands also allow you to automatically unlock the lever arm safety when you lift the weight trolley which is nice if you are holding something like during a goblet squat. That is strange to hear that the cable is coming off the pulley. I have not had that happen on mine with use multiple times per week over the course of several years now. Is the cable retainer spacer installed on the bottom pulley? It's listed as item number 32 in the Rhino standalone instruction manual. If the cable retainer spacers are installed, I'm not sure how the cable could come off the pulley, but I would definitely contact Rogue Fitness about that. They might be able to help fix it.

It's crazy all the exercises you can do with the rhino it's a great machine. It's great at belt squats that's for sure. However, I dont know if I will buy it just for squats🙄 About the other exercises you can do on rhino I can do them on my lat pull down or FT, curls, lat pull downs, cable curls, low rows l, let curls etc. However, something ideally like about rhino is that i can turn it into a reverse hyper... I do have 2 buldging disk in lower back and love doing belt squats and reverse hyper should help my lower back too🙂 I iam buying rep pr4000 with ares.withing a month. I know as far as doing belt squats u can't beat the rhino OR squat max, however I believe I can mimic belt squats with a DYI belt squat system or with one of thoese leverage arm belt squats. I like the sorinex squat j squat. I know the angle it's a little different with leverage arm tha when squating with belt squats but for the price difference I think it's worth the shot?? I still like the rhino though. LOL Iam trying to convince my self not to buy it. Lol

it looks like if you push your hips back you don't have a vertical cable anymore, looks like its pulling you at an angle. Some people had mentioned to me that it puts knee sheering no matter where you stand:( I have a bad knee and this is what's preventing me from getting rhino and the loading on vertical pin is preventing me from getting squat max. I guess nothing its perfect. lol. don't know which one to get yet

By any chance do u know how to bench in rack with rhino in it? The rhino platform looks like it getsin The way of bench??

You are the second to mention about the bolt breaking and the cable coming off, has Rogue mentioned fixing this issue?

Great for an assistant exercise but it will never replace the barbell back squat mostly in low bar 😉. However it could be very useful for guys with severe chronic back pain

This is the best review for the belt squat I have seen. You did a great job of showing pros, cons and uses. This should be getting all the views over the garage gym video reviews that get the equipment for free and give nothing but positive reviews. This needs to be easier to find.

I’ve got lumbar fusion. Do you think there would be a traction affect on a area already damaged

Do u still recomend this? I was thinking about getting rack plus rhino all in one. However I would like to know how to bench in it of the rhino platform is in the way?

Does it bottom out before tall people reach appropriate depth!!!???

Does the unit have to be bolted down to the floor????

Do you have problems fitting individuals 5' to 5'7"?

Do you guys bolt it down

Appears to be a spacer

Will the plates hit the floor if i hit failure?

The price has gone up big time. Thanks to Biden

I tried to do a low down but the cable seems go eat away at that rubber ball. Is that supposed to happen ?
