  • @tbookou
    @tbookou 10 месяцев назад +12

    Leg roller compatibility with Blackwing allows Nordics and various angles of decline sit ups. Those are important functions for many garage workouts, which easily makes the Blackwing the winner for me.

    • @chrisryan8894
      @chrisryan8894 10 месяцев назад +1

      Agreed. -8 isn’t much of a decline. I can’t afford the black wing but I don’t think this is the one for me either

    • @Rep0nere
      @Rep0nere 3 месяца назад

      Agreed. There's a lot of great functionality unlocked with the blackwing leg roller attachment and it's the reason I went with that instead of this. Both are great benches though.

    I have a very old adjustable bench and this one is at the top of my list for an upgrade in the near future. My old bench has a very soft & comfortable pad. Seems like the benches today all go with pretty firm pads, so that will be an adjustment for me.
    The pricing for this one - I think the value is there for an investment like this for your home gym. You could spend a lot more on other benches out there that don't have all this one has to offer.

  • @rayjbb1494
    @rayjbb1494 10 месяцев назад +4

    Even if people won't currently use the BlackWing leg attachment because this has decline, as Rep have said they'll be releasing a Leg curl/extension for the Blackwing for me, the option for the attachment is worth it over AB-5200 2.0! Both are incredible though just depends on your usage

    • @johanjotun1647
      @johanjotun1647 5 месяцев назад

      Is there going to be a plate loaded leg curl/extention arrachment? from what I see there is one and its just 2 round pads. I want to be able to do hamstring curls, but i'm no where near repping my body weight, I'm currently only hitting what the machines @ PF call 40-50lbs, thats one leg at a time but with both thats 100lbs and i already weigh almost 150 so i'm thinking that would be a problem.

    I'm between this one and the Blackwing... It's a tough choice... I'm not sure I'd need the extra function of the zero gap, but with the similar price point it seems like it couldn't hurt... Biggest negative will be my wife's hate of moving it around for sure. Still on the fence..

    Great review Coop. I went with the BlackWing and have had it for about 90 days now. I use it 5 days a week and are incredibly happy with it. I would buy it again if I had to do it all over. I agree the BlackWing is a heavy bench. I am 54 and can move that around my gym no problem. It does get a little more difficult when I am fatigued. Sometime I just have to give myself 60 seconds before I move it. Thanks again for the great review. V/R Shane

    What bench did you end up using for your parents gym set up? I recently installed the PRX system as well and been debating on what bench would be best since it's very close to the wall. I've gotten a few ideas from your videos, which are extremely informative, but thought I'd ask which one you liked best for that set up. Thanks in advance!

    Thanks for the review Coop! Now I'm confused and hesitant. Following your review on IronMaster Pro v2, I was convinced that the IronMaster Pro v2 was the way to go for its versatility and attachments. Would you still recommend the IronMaster over the REP AB-5200 2.0 for versatility and is the stability the same for both?

    • @BrandonSchwartz1
      @BrandonSchwartz1 10 месяцев назад

      AB-5200 is more more stable. If you’re not using the attachment ecosystem of Ironmaster, I wouldn’t recommend it over 4100 or 5200

    • @GarageGymReviews
