    Option 3 because I love adding chains to most of my movements, so this will fit nicely👍.

    I think I will go with 1 for the simplicity, but 3 is also very attractive because of the resistance profile. Option 4 not a fan of, and option 2 just seems like an ineffective version of option 3. It swings and just looks not good.

    @ronhoover5516 3 года назад +1

    I like all the options. Number 4 won't work as well for my particular setup because my rack has pop-pin safeties that don't allow a band to be positioned as easily once the first side has been set.
    But great suggestions!

    Awesome video! This was exactly what I needed and was looking for. I appreciate all your suggestions, but am gonna try the ones with the chains first, I will attempt to tether the cable first off with a small chain, if it does not succeed, I will move on the to chain method hanging from right above the plate. I just need to get the chains, guess I will go to Lowes. What about the straps? Where would I look to get a few of those? Thanks for your great video.

  • @ogboost7610
    @ogboost7610 Год назад

    How do you stop the cable from spinning and basically untwisting itself.
    Had that happen to two cable so far.
    I can hear when it’s about to break as the cable travels over the pulley and see the distortion in the cable protective sheathing

    • @DesignBuildLift
      @DesignBuildLift  Год назад

      Great question! Happens to me, too. Will happen to everyone. I just replace mine when I know its about to break. The vinyl coated cable from the hardware store is not the same cable that equipment manufacturers use. I think the only option to prevent this is to upgrade to better cable. Of course you could also switch to rope/cord (but then you have to deal with knots/tangles which is why I stick with the cheap vinyl coated cable). 🤘🙏💪

    • @lym3204
      @lym3204 9 месяцев назад

      Your post made me aware of the problem so I will give you the solution I used. The cable is spinning because the plate is spinning causing the cable to continuously twist. On the side of the cable that attaches to the handle, I inserted a swing swivel that allows the wire to untwist itself.

    Nice video! I like cable systems but hate having to load plates this way wish somebody made a loading pin with side loading so you don't have to latch and unlatch it each time and far easier to do! I also don't want to pay the $1300 for Rep's cables as they're 2:1 ration and takes 300lbs to feel like 150.

    • @DesignBuildLift
      @DesignBuildLift  Год назад +1

      Thank you! 🙏🤘💪I also have thought that such a loading pin would be great. If I could weld I would definitely attempt it.
      I love my Rep Fitness Ares attachment (purchased after I made THIS video). It has two 300 lbs stacks, where the functional trainer capbility has a 2:1 ratio, but I am glad that it does. This is done to improve the range of motion and smoothness of the operation. Without the 2:1 ratio the Functional trainer’s cable travel length would be too short (the stack would hit the top of the guide rods before you get a full Range of motion for many exercises).

    • @chrisdonnell2575
      @chrisdonnell2575 Год назад

      Ok that makes a lot of sense! Does it fit 100% in the 16 inch weight addition? I have the 30+16 and hoping it can fit back there. I think thats the best option. What functional strength exercises do you use it for?@@DesignBuildLift

    What about cable twisting.
    Have broken two cables from twisting

    • @DesignBuildLift
      @DesignBuildLift  Год назад

      My opinion: you can’t prevent it. The cheap vinyl coated cable that I used will break. The trick is to replace it before it breaks. See 17:12 of this video: ruclips.net/video/ClfftecMCkg/видео.htmlsi=07HgZUMuVEaJqNkh
      When it gets dark gray, it is time to replace it. Cheers! 🤘💪🙏

    Easiest way is to just use a second pulley. You work against one pulley, the weight is only ever pulled vertically. No swing.

    • @DesignBuildLift
      @DesignBuildLift  Год назад

      That didn’t work for me. In fact it made the “whip” even worse for me. In this OLD video at 3:20 you can see swing with two pulleys while pulling straight down. Link: ruclips.net/video/Fo1WSsl626c/видео.htmlsi=e_EZbOiI5XzRzH9U

    • @jon9509
      @jon9509 Год назад +1

      @@DesignBuildLift Interesting. Two differences in your setup and mine are that my pulleys are larger diameter and my cable is smaller diameter and looks more flexible. I wonder if either of those are factors but it's good to learn that my experience isn't universal anyway. I had another thought while thinking about this. It'd be a little more setup and you'd have to double the weight for a given exercise but I've been thinking about doing a snatch block setup with a pulley at the loading pin to get more range of motion in the cables without the loading pin hitting a pulley (which happens sometimes if I want to do cable flyes or something). Thanks for the video and response.
