They have an extra cable so the curls don’t have that issue! It’s on the gym add on kit they said, FYI. Thoughts on this or their new version coming out? Make sure to smash that like button and subscribe and comment to support the page! I didn’t show the rows; checkout my bro Tim @goreckifit where he showcases it here 👇

So a $30 stand from nothern tools and pulley and and short cable. 60 bucks tops. 😅
@Timm129 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
There is a reason most manufacturers design puts the weight underneath the user. This thing is dangerous for everyone and every exercise. I can't believe you even demonstrated it. Please...for your own safety don't use that thing...I want to keep watching your videos...😃
@Superman-xr1oh December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
They're coming out with a new one in January that has a bigger, 36" platform.

Hopefully, they saw this video and fix some of the design flaws. It looks insanely dangerous the way it was moving at just 100lbs.
@alexzavala5207 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Solid review brother it was amazing and quite helpful plus pointing out the pros and cons of the squat box might be considering getting it. 💯💪😎🤙

I created a Cable Squat Platform during the COVID Global Pandemic and at the time Not even knowing that there was a "DIY Community".

All I knew is that because of College Football and Squatting (traditional barbell on the back squatting) destroyed my spine.

I still wanted to do Legs and I wanted to do some form of a squat without loading weight onto my spine.

So I invented the Cable Squat Platform with "easy access" to hook on your belt squat Belt - so you don't have to bend down to your knees when there might be 200LBS on the Cable.

Then I went onto youtube and saw that a certain little man copied my idea (you know who the little man is). Anywho . . .

I guess it's too bad for me that I didn't patent it, or did I (patent it) . . . by creating it first with proof, because I have it on my website, only for the soul purpose of keeping track of what I create and what I buy and not really for other people (even though I do have it on the internet).

You can see it here: https://www.proflex.fitness/proflex-fitness-diy-home-gym-mods-and-hacks/cable-belt-squat-flat-platform-wpulley-wheel

PS, I don't mind at all that people copy my idea, (In fact I would be proud if someone did), but I do mind that they don't give me any credit for it.
@mariolp2999 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
This machine is stupidly prize and it's very dangerous... who would buy this piece of crap..
@zh4k December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
I was not aware of the weight limit, I see now why every other version is bolted on.
@sairam71 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
No thanks lol. I’ll stick to the lever arm version. Much safer.
@IRON-PHOENIX December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Great job Luke
@b2284 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Cool, so can't go past 70% my body weight for belt squats... Already got issues there, but then, it's legit a box with a pulley in it. I have detailed specs and hell, I could prob pay Kaizen DIY to build me an exact replica of his latest and ship it to me so I don't have to lift a finger all for less than the price of this thing 😅
@kidbrown2010 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Complete and absolute Doo-Doo (Hey, you asked what I thought! 12:32)

I have 3 criteria for gym equipment that must all be met.

1- Can I progressively overload (Is there weight limitation that will prevent me from continuous progressing on this machine and will render my investment useless)

2- Can I push to failure without danger (is it stable?).

3- Can I perform the movement through its full ROM in an effective and natural manner

The RDLs looked okay, but on squats it fails all 3. It looked like you were on a bosu-ball and were just trying to not fall over, and as a result could barely hit a quarter rep.

I can see the intention with this thing, but there are too many limiting factors for its idealized use. Even for a beginner, I would not recommend this. Better grab a pair of dumbells and get the movement patter right rather than getting the fundamentals wrong because you are training on a shaky stool.
@andrewdudenhoffer9512 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
What in the world is the point of a squat movement that you can only do 70 percent of your bodyweight with?
@ChristianStJulian December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Ideally, they lower the pulley starting position as well. It needs a cutout in the middle that starts with a deficient below the feet
@stratotele12 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
70% of your body weight?!? First, that's an arbitrary number. If you weigh 130 lbs, that's 91 lbs, while if you are 300 lbs, it would be 210 lbs! That is quite a large difference in weight tolerances. And that leads to the 2nd problem, at a maximum of 70% of your body weight, this would only be useful for beginners.
@NoFate247 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Great example of the lack of cable length for those CURLS FOR THE GIRLS
@aptn22 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
@2:26 Game over baby, you’re done😂. Hilarious.

Love it Luke!
@philrich4286 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
why not doing the curls on your knees ?
@TheKurtlocker December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Unique piece. I DIY'd a version about 2 years ago just like it, but mine pins into my rack and uses my UPS
@stevenbean09 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Would love to hook this to my lever gym bottom pulley or my trainer stack, but its just too expensive for what it is. I would rather do a DIY belt squat on some plyo boxes. Unless going light this thing doesnt look safe.
@fwiffo42 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Too many limitations for belt squats and I don’t find a lot of value in the other movements since you can do those with a loading pin or u-clips on a dumbbell.
@spartan_md8295 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Seems like it should have some weight horns on the device
@califoo December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
$349 USD... That's a steep ask versus 2 plyoboxes and a dipbelt. 😂 For only squats it's a no-go. Maybe it's worth for unique types of exercises it offers.
@GoreckiFit December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Good review, I share the same thoughts for this one!!
@HomeGymHacksandReviews December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
Thanks for the review, LGG!
@steverapos3904 December 23, 2024 - 2:39 pm
I bought a imitation flywheel off Alibaba that looked similar, and was a similar price - it is a better option if you want something like this - this thing has too many limitations and risks
