Only better arms out there are those ones your sleeves are hugging.
Why are you geh?
You ruined Rogue Stockbot 😤
@@swoleboytroy4061 wait what happened?
Jonathan Soriano He outed Rogue Stockbot and robbed hundreds of people looking to buy weight plates during COVID within the month of April.
stefonzy good morning bro, nah, we’re all mad when he posted that.
That's cool and all, but when is ANYTHING going to be in stock again?
2 years
You can get a PUMp from the FRanK in the meantime!!!
ETA for these is November
I have been asking several manufacturers this past week when they will have barbells and weights in stock and they either have let me place pre orders or have to my delight, said they have them back in stock and they sent me an order form via email.
That's happening with all fitness companies.
Coop please save some equipment for the rest of us😭
I'm curious what your thoughts are on the value of these after they increased the price here to $599.99.
Exactly what I was wondering. I know you can do a lot of movements with these but if you're not into replicating the "machine" experience I think $600 is a bit steep. I bought my PR-4000 to use with barbells and bands so although these will be great for some people, I'm thinking I can do without them in my training. That being said, if they were still $400 I might pick them up just to have them in my back pocket :)
The $600 price tag includes shipping where as before it didn’t.
I don’t know if REP is an American or Chinese brand. In China,the same product costs only 1310 yuan（$195),including shipping fees.
@@frankp5117 What about $200?😁You can buy one pair of these arms for $190 in China.I agree with you,the basic power rack is enough.As the old saying goes,less is more.I love my PR-5000.
I cannot stop thinking about the Jocko purse you reviewed and actually said was good
Mee to man that shit was just garbage 😂😂
Lmao who tf would even buy that
H0N3Y B4DG3R I woke up at 4:30AM to buy it.
Another good video mate. Really enjoy your content and it gives me more ideas. Stay well from another garage gym owner
Hey Coop, love your reviews! Ever try Titan’s TITAN series lever arms?
I feel like you could also use those eyr rings on the jammer arms to put a leg press attachment on too, that would be a cool idea.
Coop, is the PR-5000 a true "3X3" like the Rogue? I heard the PR-4000 is actually 2.95x2.95 (slightly smaller and the attachments are not compatible with RML racks without removing/shaving down UHMW from REP attachments. I was looking to add these arms, PR-4000 version, to my RML.
I think I’m getting them now, thanks. Can’t wait to go to their site and see SOLD OUT 😂🥴
Next Video: Lifting Stache; All Hype or The Real Deal?
All hype for sure.
Now we just need these bad boys to be in stock
These look so cool honestly... I’m just building out the hone gym due to Covid but you’re channel is really getting me giddy about the things I want to add!
Big Coop bringing the real talk! Thanks man for always being real in your videos, I respect that a ton with all that you do.
Really excited for this one.
As long it gets the job done. That all that matters.
Ok coop we get it you deadlift 10times a normal human with those huge muscles
Will these arms fit on a Rogue Monster Lite Rack? Also, how do they compare to Titans Lever Arms ???? Thank you
About 3 months ago I stumbled over your channel because I needed some inspirations for building my home gym. Now that I have ordered everything and wait for the deliver, I find myself still looking your videos although I wouldn`t need to anymore. I guess you could take that as a compliment. Just sayin.
Coop, if you got one of your arms covered in a knurling tattoo which bar’s pattern would it be?
(Oh, and great thoughtful unbiased thorough review as always! Not as funny as the other ones though except where you mentioned bumping your head. The highest form of humor is making fun of ourselves!)
I'd do four. Rogue OPB, Eleiko Waffle, Kabuki NGPB, and Uesaka.
Lol, Coop, can’t commit to one knurl, huh? Variety is the spice of life, except women ;-)
Great.. but can't even get plates.. so who cares
Rogue to expensive.
Coop what do you think for now at $600 with free shipping?
Will this fit the RML-490?
Rep stuff is great, but they are making it real difficult for me to give them my money. Trying to buy a fully kitted pr5000 and some plates, but they are always out of stock
Preorder came out today 9/29/21… no longer $399… $599 now.
Bro why you gotta flick us off at the end like that
The middle finger is another sign of "I Love You." :)
🖕🏼
It's like a car dealership, which cars and trucks move in selling. And which cars and trucks just sitting there wasting space and collecting dust.
Great review. Can you review the Titan lever arms?
Dude, my apologies! In past. Ids I called you a poser because you were not a well muscled as your videos suggested, I have since seen your vids of you lifting, and your strength surpasses your mass! To be honest I wish I were as strong as you........... subscribed
Meanwhile, I'm over here wondering whether Coop is natty or on the juice.... kidding! 😂
Wow what a great price however good luck on getting them. Everything is out of stock with rep. I dont even know why they would waist sending out samples when they could have just sold them to customers. Maybe they should raise there prices so they can get more Mfg and once demand falls then they can lower the price. But right now they dont have a back order process and to my experience their email when available process has never worked. So the Rouge are 600 dollars more expensive but i can put in my email and they actually notify me when they come in and i can order the Sornex Jammer Arms right now. Why be so cheap and have customers that can't even order them.
I have a rogue RML-490C and the Rep arms. The arms only fit if I removed one piece of plastic and I can only use one pin to secure it. Pin takes a lot of force to put in
How much UHMW did you have to remove? Also, how is the stability with only one pin? I heard the side holes are slightly off from the RML and don't allow two 5/8 pins to lock in.
@@Team.Madman the arm swing assembly comes in two pieces. I remove the front uhmw plastic where swing arm touches the rack. Yes I can only get one pin in but since it's so tight on the rack I have no wobble. I actually have to hammer the pin in sometimes
but will the REP ISO Arms fir on a Rogue Monster Rack?
Coop, when will one of these company make rack mounted jerk blocks? Jerk block are awesome but few people have the room to have them in their garage. Imagine if one of those company used a combination of their trolly system and a horizontal arm so that we could drop heavy jerks on them. It seems so simple and would be awesome to have.
Let me know if you agree.
Bought and they DO Not even come close to fitting on my Rogue 3x3 monster rack. They are made way too tight and would basically need to be installed with a rubber mallet beating them into place. Then of course REP doesn't make a return easy and makes you pay shipping and restock fee. Should have gone with the Rogue 50 cal trolleys first because they are far superior to these cheap Rep lever arms
I’m waiting on titan to come up with the same thing for half the price 😂
They already have arms. Not nearly as good. I have these Rep Iso Arms and they're freaking awesome! Spot on review as always Coop!!!
Jonathan Soriano I was actually joking. I’m not actually interested in getting arms attachments for my rack. Thanks for the reply though, I like sticking to just old school free weight training.
@@jonysun I’ve heard they’re hard to move up and down. What are your thoughts?
Hi curious if a person can get 2 Athena's and also ISO arms? I realize the ISO has to be under the pulleys so for lat work would have to move iso arms farther down the bar but have you tried this or seen anybody do this?
First off... to all of you with this confusion of things needing to be in stock.. What planet are you guys living on? We are living through a world wide pandemic where no one wants to go back to gyms. Hence why people are buying this gear up like crazy!!! Secondly why are you bugging out on these small companies that are trying to help us all out? Bizzare!!! The arms, the rack are strong pieces of equipment with incredible versatility. Coop put up a fair assessment of this product. For the price its pretty damn good. Yes you have to get on these sites minute by minute, no matter which company to gobble up what you can.
There are nuances to these arms, but man I can do belt squats, leg presses, chest exercises, shoulder exercises.. the gamut. Well worth it, and don't care where they were manufactured. If that is an issue start looking at your car parts and where they have been made. Thats just silly arguments to not exercise. I hope you don't buy the stuff because of this... so I can gobble more stuff up while you guys squabble about that lol!! Hey Coop thx for the review... good point with the holes .. i noticed that as well. But overall great product for the coin!!!!
You can't state they fit all 3 x 3 racks when rep is built overseas and builds in metric... Their 5/8" holes are 18mm ( larger ) and their 3 x 3 rack is 75mm x 75mm ( smaller) which means the pull pins will work but the arms themselves won't fit unless modified...
Yea agreed, this was a huge oversight in the review. Sure they fit "all 3x3 racks" when it's clear this was bolted onto a Titan Rack again which is Metric. Put this on a Monster or Monster Lite and post a review update @garagegymreviews
@@ChristianStJulian there is another video on here of a guy just pulling the protective plastic and sticking 3M felt tape on to get the clearance... I'm still going to pick up a set and attempt to just sand the plastic inserts down the 1 or 2 mm needed...
Good to know, I just know alot of people aren't prepared for that amount of modification and will buy with expectations set. Personally I like the design but need arms that attach Spotter Arm style because I have a folding rack and don't plan to leave them on all the time.
@@ChristianStJulian same here with the folding rack,I was going to pick up the front mounted feet for the pr4000 rack as well just for added stability.... But with the hole spacing on rep accessories it's the same thing with some slight mods because the holes arnt 2" apart they're like 1.98"
@@stevenrobare6668 Yea thats a good idea. With the feet, I'd just be concerned if they'd sit flush with the ground after mounting. The feet for folding racks are a bit different from that of a standard rack so you might need to wedge something underneath. I bought some RV pullout supports for my spotter arms but hadn't thought about jammer Arms causing stability issues unless you're doing some cleaning movements which I wouldn't be.
Do they fit the monster lite though? I know they released one for the pr4k.
I got this question too. I got the RML-390CN rack and really want these.
They fit my monster lite rack they have the 4000 series
2 years ago they were 399. Now they are 599. Wow
"If you're good at something, never do it for free."

I rather have rep fitness than hoist gym equipment.
Can I attach this to Titan Series?
He said Titan and rep use pretty much identical sizes so yes should work fine
Can the chrome weight horn be removed and positioned on the front of the arm for plate top loading instead of side loading?
I looooove the Rogue lever arms so I bought them for my RM-6. If I could try the Rep before I bought them, I might consider them because I do think the locking positions are a great idea, but I don’t like all the lateral play, and it’s FAR from a guarantee that Rep will have those back in stock Nov/Dec 2020. I do think their customer service is very good though. I placed a big pre-order with them at the thick of the pandemic and canceled it to go with Rogue because their ETAs kept moving.
Once they’re back in stock, I’ll be curious to see if Rogue modifies their design at all, might even pick up a pair of these on the other side of my rack...? Thanks for the review, Coop!
I want some but they are out of stock
I wish Coop was my brother
So we could use his gym
Are Jammer /Lever /ISO arms even worth it?
42” inches it’s too long I hope they make shorter like 30”
Well, I’m looking now and they are $599.99 :(
3 years later and these are 50% more expensive at $600 😢
Ok so the Rogue lever arms won’t work on a Rep PR5000?
Would these arms work on a PRX Profile performance rack?
Same boat and would they work on 2 x 3
If it's 3x3 should do
I have the same question because that'd be a lot of outward pressure on the mounting rails and studs.
They take to much time and effort.. for the same results by other means
Do they make these for 4000 also will 4000 fit on monster lite??
They are now 600 bucks on Rep site. Wth?
Sold..i just need it to work. My Rogue Monster rack all ready has the rep feet and other frankenstein accessories and i kinda like it that way. This is way more affordable.
David, you have the rep feet front feet on what kind of rogue rack? Are they with compatible with monster rack?
@@timt7657 I believe so as long as it has the one inch holes
Good review! How is it able to fit 5/8" and 1" holes? Does it come with different size pins?
Kevin Jackson it depends on which version you buy, there’s a PR-5000 and a PR-4000 one
Love the videos coop! Could you do a review on Baadass adjustable dumbbells?
Yep, just got a few new ones in.
Seem durable, but stickers for branding and cheap paint on the plates. The owner of the company has some allegations against him from previous business ventures, so you may want to look into that.
Coop, could you rate these (and other jammer arms) as a leg press? Would they be adequate or lacking?
I don't think any of the companies have created/came out with an attachment so it can be used as a leg press. I'm sure one could come up with something, a bar/platform to press, and safety arms so set the jammer arms at the needed height depending on the style of leg press you wanted to do. The angle Could be kinda weird for a leg press, and the weight limited, so I would say lacking for people that rep 800 to 1000lbs on leg press... but maybe usable for people that are working at the up to 500lbs for reps.
Shout out to Gavin Laird.
Glad you got a good set of iso arms. I have been a little put off from Rep due to their apparent customer service shortcomings with the release of their products. I’m not even talking about the lack of product being in stock, I get that one. Some of the examples of customer service has been concerning such as the response of “just take a metal grinder to make the iso arms fit”. I will say, they always make it right, but responses like that are a bit concerning
+Repfitness when do you think there will be enough stock of these so that I can just randomly go to your site and order them?
okay, please dont get mad, i'm just starting out, and i want to use my stimulus check (1400$) and buy a super cheap home gym setup, my question is ..can a broke scrub gym noob, buy jammer arms and things like that and then put them on a cheap power rack?, like the 810 xlt or whatever one of those 300$ ones, theres like 20 of them , but will any of those fit attachments on them though, if so, how does someone who is new to home gyms know what attachments will fit to what power rack? (i dont want to buy one that nothing will fit on and i cant afford a "good" power rack, so it's difficult to find out which one i need to buy) with only 1400$ i can buy a good power rack, but have nothing else, not even weights probably, unless i find a c-list or facebook used set real cheap
What's your opinion about the Sorinex J-Squat? Is it worth the money and space to upgrade to the Rogue Rhino dedicated belt system or does it make sense to save space and money with the J-Squat jammer arm belt squat attachment?
I would say go for the Rhino if you have the money due to the versatility if you have the space and money. But J-Squat is you need to save on space.
@@tonyallen3138 Thanks for the reply. When you say versatility, what are you referring to? I have the money and space to get the Rogue rhino, but I'm not sure whether it would be smarter to spend the space and money elsewhere, or if the rhino is that much better than the J-squat that it would just make sense to get the rhino. Basically, I could get either, but I could get more stuff if I got the J-Squat. In your opinion should I just go with the rhino or get the J-Squat?
Xavier Stephens what I mean is that the Rhino will provide more variations to different workouts you can perform depending if you perform the drop-in configuration vs stand-a-lone. You can use it as a pulley system to perform more than just the belt squat variant workouts.
Coop I have yet to make a comment on a single video but I feel inclined to at this point. I will tell you that you are misleading customers by saying that rack accessories are cross compatible with various companies. You have done this in a few of your videos and I am here to say that is not true. The REP and Titan series racks are 75MM X 75MM not 3" X 3" like Sorinex and Rogue and as you slightly said here in this video the hole spacing is off between those companies as well. So just for everyone's knowledge I have a REP PR-5000 rack and tried the Rogue Monster spotter arms they do not completely fit as the safety pin will not go in due to spacing. Additionally the Rogue Trolley arms will not fit as well due to the same problem. For Sorinex gear you are better off I have the full safety bars on my rack and they work fine. Now with that being said if you think your J-Cups or other REP attachments will fit a Sorinex or Rogue rack they will "slightly" if you do not mind it being so tight that it scrapes off the powder coating. Long story short buyer beware all things are not created equal and I would expect someone in this position that has exposure to all of these racks to be more clear and concise so consumers do not lose money.
@garage gym reviews really enjoy your videos, thanks for the great content. I have a question, can the Titan lever arms compatible with the Rep Fitness Omni Rack?
I ordered the Omni Rack but they are out of stock for there iso arms. So I found Titan had a set that's cheaper. But are they functional on an Omni Rack and of good quality? Thank you again.
Are sold in pairs?
Yeah they are sold in pairs
Can you put Rogue Cross-members on REP uprights? I know the bolts are not totally the same size?
So can you really mix and match, or is only accessories?
And if you can, would be really cool to see a Mutant REP/Rogue Rack build. where you take the best from both and put it together!
Hey Coop do you or anyone know if you can use these Rep Fitness ISO arms on the Ethos 1.0 rack? The rack is a 3x3 rack, but it's not Westside spacing, it's 2 inch spacing. @garage gym
You have all this gym equipment and you look the same in figure 🤦🏻♂️ I wish I had all that equipment at home I’ll be a beast 💪
$399, I'm a fan of rogue equipment, but $399, as a broke college student, I care about the functionality, and again, $399. Compare between around 1k for rogue and sorinex, easy to move the arms up and down, butttt, you can't do pull-ups or dips. $399, mind blowing
Do these arms vs rogue need to have the rack bolted down? That’s a very important consideration because who wants to bolt down a cage to your garage floor if you can just buy stabilizers. The rogue sells mini feet but they don’t recommend using those and not bolt cage down to the floor with the LT-1. Rep sells feet stabilizers and they recommend you can use the ISO arms without bolting the cage to ground. So question is with rogue are they just being conservative and can you demo the rogue cage with mini feet and without bolting the cage? It’s a big point when committing to a cage. I just don’t seeing bolting a cage as option but wondering why both companies have vastly different recommendations on these arms given similar dimensions on pr5000 v2 and rogue monster series.
Has anyone left their rack and accessories outside? How long did it last? I’m in Southern California. I leave my bar and bench in my shed. My Rouge rack and bumper weights are outside. It’s setup outside, wondering how long it will last and if I can get this type of accessory.
Gavin is a genius. Sweet review coop
Coop just an idea for the channel. Maybe worth exploring options avail outside US too as the Primal Strength Jammer Arms (in my opinion) are literally the best design and functionality you can buy. At minimum, it will get the word out to likes of Rogue - lol. Great review and good to see shout out to Gavin and Primal Strength.
looking to get lever arms for a RML-390FULLW. these look pretty permanent (not easily detachable). is this true? are there any lever arms that I can easily remove after a workout? I intend to fold the rack away after each use.
I read some reviews stated that the iso arms damaged their cages, cosmetically speaking. Can anyone confirm or refute these claims? Rep sometimes updates their products, so figured I'd ask around.
Someone needs to start making lever/jammer arms that can also universal swivel for racks, like the Sorinex Hurricane. It will allow for many more movement's than just up or down. What's the complexity of moving the arms from the front post to the rear post ???
Length of the arms is effectively shorten by the two bolts on the end. What is the max distance between the pivot point and handle?
Do they work on the RML 490?
That's what I want to know. Everyone keeps saying "they should," but I haven't seen anyone say they actually tried it. Titan and REP racks are actually 75mm x 75mm (2.95"x2.95"), not 3"x3" and I have made the mistake before of thinking their attachments would fit my RML (they often do NOT).
@@xtrastrengthfukitol7733 Yep, my concern too. I really want them but i have a few months as COVID has delayed my home gym construction
Coop you tried them on a monster rack? Im just surprised every rep attachment ive gotten has been really tight because their uprights are 2.95 inch instead of 3 inch tubes.
Coop you the man
No, Kev, you da man!
Do you know if it will fit on the Titan X3 rack? If so, which one (PR 4000 or PR 5000 Iso Arms) will fit the X3?
I think belt squat was trash. Wouldn’t fit in the rack well and broke on me first use and just didn’t like.
Made me hesitate on these arms, but may look to get these later on. I am very pleased with their rack and lat pull down accessory.
I just wish they would drop the monolift. I seen the Rogue was finally in stock but the bottom pins won’t fit correctly so I’m hesitant on that. I personally want the monolift before these. I also feel I can do most of these movements with a landmine. I rest the bar on safety arms to have a stand.
Coop, you should check the vendetta Adapter, it's looks awesome. It's just what you were asking for
Would these Iso Arms create too much outward force for a Rogue RML-3W Wall Mount? I haven't installed mine yet, but I am going to use the stringers and the wall it is going to be attached to is solid wood so it seems like it should be pretty secure. I just wanted to get everyone's thoughts.
@garagegymreviews have you tried the Rogue AH-1 Articulating Handles on the Rep ISO arms?
Love the videos Coop!
do you know if these will work with prx Profile® PRO Squat Rack with Multi-Grip Bar?
Coop- Are we positive the lever arms will attach to Rogue Monster Lite? I’ve had issues with their JCups fitting my 3x3 uprights.
Rep arms are a better choice if you have a Rogue monster lite rack the monster lite version trolley arms aren’t very nice totally different from the monster version.
Do you have a suggestion for what jammer/lever arms work best for Prime HLP plate loaded rack?
Just checked their website, already sold out. Probably will be resold for 3x the retail price.....and of course I’ll be the one to buy it.
So with reps and Titans attachments being slightly snug on rogue uprights…do you think these iso arms would glide easily up and down rogue uprights?
are these necessary? all the stuff it shows people doing with these can be accomplished with other lifts that dont require these special arm attachments
Would they fit a half rack rogue Sml2???
Looks like a Texas Cop! ✌️
I own these they are really good BUT I do have one arm that, from time to time, the holes become misaligned and I have to take the arm apart and put them back together to get the pins to go in smoothly. Not sure why that happens, wonder if it happens to anyone else. Have seen people in the FB group that can't get the pins to go in smoothly at all as well.
One other note, one arm sticks to the upright without pins for precise adjusting while the other arm slides straight to bottom unless you put upward pressure on the arm. REP definitely has some refining to do but I'm happy for $400
@@nickdubberly This has basically been my experience as well. Sometimes have to press to the left or right to get the more difficult side to actually go up or down.
10 months later, how do you guys feel about the arms overall? I'm debating getting them, just wasn't sure how much use they'd be getting.
Why so coy about it. who's gonna spend 1k when they can spend 0.4k?!!!
Hi Coop. Would you say this could be used with a PRx Performance Pro rack which mounts to wall studs?
