taken directly from there website "Achieving exceptional results in athletics requires specific training for the glutes, hamstrings and hip regions of our musculature. The Pendulum Reverse Glute-Ham gives the athlete the ability to isolate the glutes or hamstring, or train both simultaneously. Leg training is a critical component for optimal athletic performance. Options can be very limited when foot, ankle, shoulder, or back injuries occur. The Pendulum Reverse Glute-Ham will optimize your athletic health through a variety of training limitations.", with that said i don't understand why you would find offense in me describing how i use the equipment with my clients, i find it more curious why you would debate it being great on old folks because the machine was originally designed for top level athlete's, does that mean that old folks shouldn't use leg extensions or bb racks either?

thank you!

How much can be this machine ?

Thanks! :)

thank you, i appreciate the comment. it helps that i own a gym and train people as it gives a different perspective towards the equipment.

hi there!, prolly because i don't really push the channel and its more like a passion project of sharing info, with that said, the short arms are so much easier to use because they are easier to adjust, its easier to set up force angles (less trial and error), go short 100%, i will never buy long ones again personally.

@@squishgymschooloflifting2398 Thank you so much for getting back to me! I actually have a sorinex basecamp. So I am thinking about getting the shorter articulating rogue handles. Do these fit as well as the regular sorinex jammer arms on the sorinex rack? or do the rogue jammer arms fit better?

@@jimbin-yp8kw i talked to the guys at sorinex and they are releasing a new bracket for the handles, so you might wanna talk to them, and the rogues do fit on the sorinex.

the articulate handle is good for short and long, its just the superior handle choice atm.

i have not purchased there jammer system but i am intrigued by there smaller portable jammer, i believe it might be a good option too

@@squishgymschooloflifting2398 thanks

most prolly would just need to have the feet point outward in a 25ish degree opening, when setting this exercise for individual differences your best shot is having someone who is educated troubleshoot the exercise with you. hope it helps.

prolly around 3500 lbs, with the added power rack add another 300ish

they do not, I personally do not like belted squats for bulging disks, I prefer the mars bar and to perform Hatfield squats or a hip press machine from rogers

@@squishgymschooloflifting2398 Mars bars will still load my spine??

Thanks 👍

they would not work as all jammer adjustable systems require side holes (which if you drill them in it should work), now if you use the fixed jammers they are some models where the holes are in the back from the front and those would work

yes, they are 42 inches wide, the whole setup is like 12ft

@@squishgymschooloflifting2398 perfect thank you. I have been working with Alex. Putting the order in soon. I have to narrow down color

the plate loaded is lighter to move around, that's about it

a little scuff on the lat pulldown machine, packaging is great(like really good), they do offer installation services but its expensive, frankly installing this is easy moving it around is the hard part (unless you got a team of strong dudes).

worth is a subjective opinion, i agree its expensive but most good machines are gonna be between 2 and 4k. so that's basically the ballpark of gym machines, and a plate and a back extension machine does not cover the same strength curve as this machine. its used for different purposes and loading patterns. i don't recommend anyone buying this if they don't have a basic setup already covered (rack, bb, plates, dumbbells, etc.)

works pretty well, no functional difference imo

Great review! Very informative. Question... I know this thing is a beast, but I'm looking at a combo unit because I have limited space in my home gym. (I currently have a GHD and the Scout reverse hyper) Do you think it is probable to put this unit on lockable castor wheels to be able to pull out to use, and push into a corner when not in use?

Thank you!

chest cross would be fine. the adjustable columns starting weight would be too heavy for posterior delt work or rotator work however

if you take out the pin it can be light enough, it really depends on your level of strength tho, if you do back fly's with 20 db's you should be able to use the cables for it

Definitely! I'll be sure to deliver one for the Rogue Donkey

it definitely is my favorite

it was about 17k with the additions i did to it (shipping is sooo expensive)

I'm sure you could ask for the custom work, i personally wouldn't do that as it would give you marginal functionality, since the weight is 1:1 on the pulldown its hard to use for small muscles

it seems to me like it can have similar functionality, with the adjustable cable column, however i feel the design is not as streamlined, the half rack works perfect for space and use, i find it unnecessary to add a removable full rack to it, granted my apex is wider than the standard model.

this is a very broad question to something that requires specificity, it depends what the pain triggers are for the person, someone who is intolerant to spinal extension would find this machine difficult to use (not impossible). i recommend you read the back mechanic from Stuart McGill if you are having back issues. i personally train tons of clients that have back pain on this machine, it is done with extreme focus on form and it is great, just requires the coaching.

you need to know how to brace, fix the spine in place, and perform the hinge in control, if you do not know how to do this it would be difficult to use the machine correctly.

That depends on the apex you get, i got a modified one that is wider than normal, so i have no struggles with the space, id recommend you call sorinex and ask about witdh options!

@@squishgymschooloflifting2398 OK great! Thanks so much for your quick reply. I definitely plan on the wider one as well.

Glad you enjoyed it

It comes down to how much space you have, i prefer the apex 100%, but if your short on space do the prime rack

They didn't, i have 2 other pair of jammer arms in my gym, which are rogue fitness, call them and see if they will make a custom order

@@squishgymschooloflifting2398 THANK YOU

77 inches, might be rough honestly, id recommend a sorinex base camp for you

Glad it was helpful!

Super easy and simple, comes as a piece and you have to seperate the panels.

Well you have to compare to what functional trainer, if i get the pick just a cable functional trainer i would pick a freemotion, the primes rack advantage lies in its versatility (its still a good cable system), shipping is something honestly i would just talk to a prime rep about, it changes based on where you are, and recently prices have been fluctuating a lot.

@@squishgymschooloflifting2398 thank you for the response... I guess a better question is, is the prime pulley system on par with say a free motion? If not is close at least? Thanks again

@@02phenom close for sure. If not right up there.

@@squishgymschooloflifting2398 well that settles it for me! I’m getting one. Thank you.

3 in 1 oil

yeah of course, that's why its an apex rack, without the cable machines from them it would just be a rack.

@@squishgymschooloflifting2398 I appreciate it.
