Thanks Bruh, once again you have showed me the way!!!! I was trying to figure away to do seated rows with the SUPERMAX POWER CAAAGE!!! I actually bought the cage and the bench based on your videos. Thanks again can’t wait to get in the basement and try this hack. Awesome ingenuity!
Hey Bryan thanks for commenting man! I can't tell you how helpful it is to growing out this channel! I'm glad you liked the tip! The first time I tried em it I knew it was wrong. One more way to make em even better is to us a rope for handles I shot video on it but the video was getting long so I didn't edit it in. I'm surprised by how many people bought that cage after watching these videos but I'm glad people are finding that much value in em. Thanks again for watching man.
Aye man, y'all show Vern some love for real! This man is constantly innovating the 810xl Supermax Power Cage! That's a BOSS AZZ modification Vern and I'm excited to try it!
Vern: “This is the way.” Just did back and was thinking in the gym this exercise felt better than at home using the fitness reality and this is probably why. Appreciate ya.
@@UsawaFitness Vern I wanted to ask your opinion. Do you think its worth getting a curl cable attachment with the bends or is a rope/straightbar/your barbell god enough. Maybe you could do a video on which attachments you think are bare minimum if you havent already. Ill take a look in your videos. Thanks.
Congrats my dude! It's a winner man! I guarantee you that your gonna love it. Thanks for watching the videos and please let me know if you have any questions! Seriously feel free to reach out to me via my website with any questions. Illinois 💪🏾👏🏾
Nice idea but a lot of work which made me think, i just put the j hooks on the bottom holes and put my barbell on them and rest my feet on the barbell!
Thank you Steve! I appreciate you watching it and I'm grateful for you letting me know that you're liking some of the content that I've been creating. Thanks a lot man. I really do appreciate it.
@@immanuelcarr5823 Hey Immanuel, I honestly have no way to leave a comment under your name. Whatever happened I am not involved brother. I was really enjoying the back and forth the last few days with you and I'm not the kind of guy that would post a comment under someone else's account even if I could. I'm a good dude man. I'd never do that.
Hey Justin! I've been thinking about you man. I hope all is well and your workouts are going good! Thanks for watching. I hope you like this one once you've tried it.
I didn't understand the 28100/2815 part Steve. I'm glad you got one though. You're going to love it man. It's my favorite piece of gear that I own. Thanks for checking out my video! I have a bunch of em centered around this cage so keep browsing if you get a chance. Thanks again for watching.
Nice observation. I have a foot plate on my rack but what you did shows what the low pulley for the back exercise should be. Again you may need to patent your ideas.
Thank you Jose. I really appreciate the things you've said about what I've done with that cage lately. It makes me feel like I've overlooked just how valuable some of what I've done may be commercially. Thank you man.
I want that squat rack so badly with that cable attachment, I'm trying to save my money for that but I'm kinda worried about it fitting in my garage because my garage isn't really super tall I hope it will fit in my garage.
Hey Jose I'm not sure if you saw this one but this is the best modification that I made of all of them and I think you might find it useful if you have a cage with a pulldown. I'm going to send it to you in two reply's because I'm not sure if RUclips will allow me to post links in the comments. It's called "Fitness Reality 810xlt, HulkFit, Power Rack Power Cage Incredible DIY Home Gym Chest Exercise Mod" just in case the link doesn't stick.
I had watch the video from work and very much like what I saw. Having the pulley worked from the bottom made the difference for the exercise to work. Two Fonzarelli my brother 👍👍.
Thank you for watching! That piece is specific to the Fitness Reality 810xlt power cage and it comes with the cage. It's one of the supports but you remove it and it becomes a leg restraint when you purchase the Lat Pulldown attachment.
Hey Vern, amazing work your are doing with these tutorials. I have a question for you. The plate holders you have on the rack, what brand are they? I have the same rack ( Fitness Reality 810 Supermax XL) and looking for proper plate holders for the rack. Thanks and keep up the good work.
Thanks Frantz I appreciate the vote of confidence man! How do you like the rack and Lat Pulldown? I still feel like it's the best piece of workout equipment I've ever owned :-) I'm using Body Solid Olympic Plate Holder Adapters and I have links in the description of this video but you can search em too. I wish Fitness Reality had included a pair with the attachment. Thanks again man. Peace.
@@UsawaFitness The rack is amazing man. I am getting great workout from it. I set up the Lat pulldown last night. I can't wait to use it. BTW I ordered the landmine attachment. What do you think of ( Fuel Performance Landmine T-Bar row attachment.) Which one do you have? I am just trying to get all the attachment pieces together. Thanks for the info on the plate holders. They look really good on your rack and hold the plates properly.
Hey Frantz sorry about the slow reply! I haven't tried that Fuel Performance T-Bar row attachment yet but it looks good. Can you please email me what you think about it once you've used it a little bit? I have one made by Purmotion but I bought it years ago and it was very expensive but I try to do reviews here on quality budget friendly gear so yours might be a better one for this community. You're welcome on the adapter sleeves! Please keep watching. ☺️
The Body-Solid Adapter Sleeves slide onto the 1 inch plate holder post that move up and down on the Lat Pulldown attachments chrome guide rail. That just allows you to put your Olympic Plates on where you would only be able to use 1 inch plates.
Thank you Usawa, I watch your all Power Cage Videos, Just a Idea I just got my Power cage Today I try This with Using my Bench Decline, Don't know that's right, Can you just check it.
Hey thanks for checking this one out! I appreciate it. So you're seated on the bench in the decline position? It should work so long as you are able to get your feet lower then your knees and far away enough from the anchor to get a full pull out of the row. Thanks again for visiting here!
Hey Vern! I purchased this set up thanks to your outstanding reviews. So thank you! Now that I have it set up though I’m noticing some friction when I’m using the low pulley with attachment. It feels like the cables are sliding through smoothly and I can see some wear starting to happen on the cables. Any ideas why this might be happening? The high pulley seems to be ok though! Thank you!
I've seen this happen to a few people. Make sure that you've threaded that too pull correctly. I'm going to go outside and take a few pictures for you. Email me at vern@usawafitness.com
Top* pulley. I took some photos of mine and I can send them to you but they should be riding over the top of the pulleys and never threaded below the metal.
Ok thank you! I will send a message. And I had a typo, I meant the Cables *aren’t sliding through smoothly. And I feel friction. I loosened up the bolts on the bigger bottom pulley and that seemed to fix the problem somewhat. Does that seem like a realistic solution?
I don't feel like you should have to loosen anything but it's hard to say. Oh wait I just thought about something. Make sure you have the right pulley's in place it. I feel like if you didn't you may be and to crank one down harder than you should. I took some photos for you if you want em.
Thanks for the hack! I just got my lat pulldown attachment. Works great but have noticed one issue with the lower row bar. What happens is when I try to put the bar down smoothly after a set it kind of gets stuck for a second and then the small ball where the lower pulley is located snaps back quickly and the weight drops down a few inches on the slider bar making it pretty jerky and loud as the weight drops. Not sure if others have the same issue or there's something going on with my machine. It's only dropping a few inches after I set it down so not a huge deal perhaps over an extended period of time this will cause issues. Any idea what's going on here?
Thanks for watching Brian. That doesn't sound right it should be smooth as butter the whole way through the pull. I would say double check to make sure that the cables are threaded correctly. That's the only reason I could see what your describing happening. Let me know if that was it and I'll try to think of other reasons why that might be happening in the meantime.
Finally I find a RUclipsr that has a real world style gym and dose real world hacks 😊 very good video Brother

That's years of knowledge, most people wouldn't ever figure out on their own.
Thanks Joe! I appreciate that man! And thanks for checking this one out!
Thanks so much man, was looking for exactly this as I am still figuring out how to use my lat attachment for rows
I'm glad you found it helpful! Let me know if you have any questions.

That's love! I'm going to direct him to this comment! I told him he nailed it but he should hear it from someone else too! Thank you!
That hack was everything I needed. Thanks so much man!
You're welcome yo! I was so happy to make this one because doing it the other way just wasn't right. I'm glad you watched it. Thank you!
Super hack on the Super Max Power Cage... Very creative! Congrats on the 1K subscribers
Thank you Fuzzy!

I don’t have Olympic plates but I’ll definitely give it a try
I hope it helps!

My brother, this is awesome! Why not design an attachment like this, market it, sell it and get rich. I’d buy such an attachment!
Maybe one day!
Nice idea but a lot of work which made me think, i just put the j hooks on the bottom holes and put my barbell on them and rest my feet on the barbell!
Yep it's just an option. Thanks for checking it out.
Awesome hack! Love your vids bro! I'm trying this out today on my Fitness Reality 810 Super Max Power Cage!😆

Wow thanks I have a herniated dish probably due to me doing it on the floor. This should help
You're definitely going to want to make this or an adjustment similar then Juan. And take it slow.
Quality video fella 💪 love seeing other similar channels 💪 we have subscribed to get you closer to your target 💪 keep it up 🔥
Thank you for checking out the video and for the sub! I checked out your channel and you have a great channel too!
Congratulations on 1k yaaay!!!!
Thank you Virginia! That was a real grind but I'm so grateful for getting there. Thank you for helping me! Now I'm pushing for that 10k! 🤗

@@UsawaFitness It’s the truth. Keep up the good work.
Thanks man!
Great video!
Thanks Aaron! Glad you liked it and thanks for watching it.
Great idea
Thanks Brian!
I want that squat rack so badly with that cable attachment, I'm trying to save my money for that but I'm kinda worried about it fitting in my garage because my garage isn't really super tall I hope it will fit in my garage.
It's not that tall Corbin! It should definitely fit in most garage's. I ist all the specs in my Rack video with the workout in it. It's a nice pickup!
Hopefully I will fit in my garage and I dream of having that in my garage.
This guy sounds like a key and peele skit
Nah they're acting trying to sound like the real me! 💪🏾😎

for rows i like to lie on my front on a incline bench and row up towards me from underside the bench
