While not as versatile as a full set of cables, this is definitely the more cost effective option to add more exercises to your squat rack. The REP Fitness 1000 Lat Pulldown Attachment allows you to do different exercises that target all of the muscles in your back. This product is made with a 1:1 ratio so that means you can expect a 15-pound weight to feel like 15 pounds of resistance.
The pulley itself is made from a thick, durable plastic and the cables are made of wire with a steel core that can handle up to 1000 pounds. However, the weight horn only allows 450 pounds—you can use iron or Olympic bumper plates that you already have at home to add more weight without overly stressing the horn.
Along with this product, you will also get a lat bar and straight bar, and you can purchase different grips and handles. The footprint of the attachment is small, adding only about 17 inches to the depth and a few inches of height.
