Great info. I just purchased my first Bullworker X5 and I'll start familiarizing myself with it tomorrow. Love your channel. You're a likable, down to earth guy and your videos are really enjoyable. After watching your Bullworker videos I feel inspired to get a few sets in.
@@damianjones7554 I just firmly reattached the Power Meter strip with some 3M double-sided tape. I've been using the X5 for about 2 weeks now and really like the variations you can do with the black shaft handles and the straps. I really enjoy your easy-going demeanor while providing useful information. Hope you will do more "old school" equipment videos in the future.
I had the red handled X5 many many years ago when they first came out. It took me months of saving up from my paper round to buy it. Last year, after decades of no exercise, I decided to get in shape, asked my mum last year if she still had it somewhere in her house. Unfortunately, she had thrown it out just a couple of years ago when having a big tidy up. What a shame. I would have loved to start using it again.
Aww what a shame, never mind you might get lucky and find one on ebay, if not go for the black bullworker x5 with the red traction ropes which seem more plentiful on the second hand market and are virtually the same tension.
I'd certainly be getting a brand new one if they still made them over here in the UK, but then just seemed to vanish from the shops around the mid 90's. If you get yourself a new one it will probably last a lifetime so money well spent I'd say.
Great explanation of the different models!

Thanks for the video. I am thinking about buying a new one. In Germany you can still buy the original X5 brand new.

Brilliant video & explanation Damian.
I didn't know the difference either.
Also, a big 'Hello' 👋from Stoke-on-Trent. 😁
I bought a brand-new replica of the X5. It works fine.
Are you getting the X5 pro?
