I've been watching for another sale on this at Costco. Your video was more helpful than the manufacturer's video when it comes to understanding how the machine works. Thanks!

I’m glad it was helpful. Just to update. That I believe it is now the center brand. But it’s to my understanding the quality hasn’t changed. It’s the same machine just different colors. I hope you found out a good deal. Thanks again for watching just help people make them decision, especially when you cannot see the product at a Costco.

I’m 6’4” so I definitely have to take into consideration the exercises that can be done on this. But so far the ones you showed that might be challenging for a tall person can be done sitting on a bench. I would just move the pulley all the way down and do tricep extensions behind my head. Or I could lay on the bench and do them horizontally. You learn how to modify, so for me I don’t think that would be a deal-breaker.

I’ve had the SF3 for over a year and love it. I did get the straight bar because the ez curl isn’t my favorite. Also the way the weight doubler works is like this: the cable pull is 2:1 so normally 60 on each side is really only 60 because the ratio divides the 120 by 2. The top of the weight stack is 15 so 60 + 15, but the doubler makes it actually 75x2 so 150 plus the weight of the bar (which is 15 I thinks).

It looks great! I have a similar situation where space is a premium - I also like that you change the weights so quick and easy with the weight stacks. Unfortunately it doesn't have the lat pulldown and row stations like the FT2 but this one is much cheaper (and comes with a bench) so it is a much better value.

Pretty sure I'll be picking this up the next time it goes on sale. It sounds like people might just be confused on the smith. I've read a few comments in reviews that say the smith is basically useless unless you only do super low weight or only do deadlifts, but maybe they just don't know how to use it properly? Because it looks like you could load it up and still be able to adjust the starting position pretty easily the same way you did it here?
@AviatorsGarage
@AviatorsGarage 6 месяцев назад
Yeah, a lot of people misunderstand the Smith machine and how it works totally. People get very confused because you have to start at the bottom of the motion versus the top. I haven’t had any issues whatsoever. And you can load it up to 300+ pounds of weight. For me, that’s more than enough I’m not a power lifter anymore. I recommend waiting for it to go on sale. It’s usually goes down to $1999.99 because of a $500 off. And I believe that includes free shipping. Thank you for your comment. And thank you for watching. Let me know if you have any more questions.

For squats. Would you have the bar with no weight on it at the top, squat down, then engage the weight, then do your set, disengage the weight, stand back up and walk out? Looked like the weight can only be hooked up at the bottom of your squat at the start.

That’s a great question, yes you can do it that way, which is great in the beginning. I’ve gotten use to starting my lift at the bottom by having the heigh preset.

I personally have never used the REP FT 3000. It looks like a solid quality build and a USA company that will have great customer service. The one thing I see it’s lagging for the price is No smith bar. I’m sure you can link up a straight bar to the pull system but the SF3 has one built in. That allows me to transition between work outs very quickly. Great when I feel I need to do quick changing super sets. Great question. Let us know which one you choose! Thank you for the comment.

The FT2 is twice the price at $5000 vs $2500 (Costco exclusive). FT2 is a little bit bigger. They both have a smith machine. The FT2 has a little more advanced pulleys and adjustable mechanisms. The FT2 has an overhead pulley station and a center station, and the FT2 has an upgradable weight stack system ( you can 50lbs a side later for a cost). The SF3 as of now is only 160lbs a side. Hope that helps.

So can you do pulling motions with the smith bar like lat pull downs or does it come with a different attachment for the pullies to do LPD?

That’s a great question. Unfortunately the Smith bar only provides resistance when you’re pushing up on it like as if you were doing squats, I’m coming up with a game plan or an idea to use the easy curl bar to do a form of a lat pull down I just gotta figure it out using some ingenuity on my part.

I did want to add that you can do a bent over row using the Smith bar, which helps your back muscles get a work out as well

What is the distance from the back of the machine to the furthest point in the front? I cannot seem to find the measurements that do not include the bench. Trying to figure out if I can fit it into my garage where space is also at a premium. Thanks!

So the back to front of machine measurement is about 49 inches. The length of the bench (base) is about 50 inches. I would plan on 60 inches from back to front of machine while using the bench for work outs. Hope that helps.

Is the enough space that you could do hip thrusts with the smith machine?
@AviatorsGarage
@AviatorsGarage Год назад
If you are talking about doing them with the intention of using the bench, I would say yes there is plenty of room for sure to do hip thrusters. Thanks for the comment!

What kind of treadmill you use?
@AviatorsGarage
@AviatorsGarage Год назад
I have a really really old True PS500, which has definitely stood the test of time (almost 19 years old and about 15-16 moves across the country) however I would love to upgrade it to a free form that has a 30 degree or greater incline. Unless true makes one that has a greater incline. Think I should make a vid about it? Thank you for the comment.

How hard was it to put together ?
@AviatorsGarage
@AviatorsGarage 10 месяцев назад
It took me by myself about 6 hrs. If I had help maybe 4. Once it’s put together it is in place where it is. I think it weighs about 6 to 700 pounds. But I didn’t think it was that difficult. It just takes time. In my opinion for the price it is a very good quality machine and I use it every day I can.

Can you do lat pull downs on this
@AviatorsGarage
@AviatorsGarage Год назад
You can but you have to be creative. You can also do assisted pull ups using the strap that comes with the accessories, which I find are way better for me. Thank you for the comment.

Does anyone know if this is built cheap compared to FT2?
@AviatorsGarage
@AviatorsGarage Год назад
Not at all, it’s built to last. Same quality as FT2. FTX has the same build quality as well. It’s a commercial grade piece of equipment.

Thank you so much, I am inclined towards this machine but is not having center top and bottom pulley, a deal breaker? I will mostly be using the top/bottom pulley for back exercises. I wonder if those two can be done using the side pulleys.

@@kuldip2604 if you have imagination you can make it work with this machine and save $2,000 over buying the FT2.
