I have had this for a few months now. I bought it because I was tired of looking up at home alternatives to leg extensions, lying leg curls. This has increased the efficiency of my workouts a ton. I completely agree about the criticism of the adjustment knobs for the stabilization pads however I definitely didn’t destroy mine like that just had to take them out put that back in a few times to fix the threading. I did have some issues there though. I think you overstated the issue with having it permanently attached to the rack. I keep this on my main rack and with the attachments removed from the carriage it really doesn’t take up much space and putting on the seat, pads or handle is extremely easy to do. Storing them is another issue they do take up some space in my garage. I’m able to squat, bench press in the rack with carriage on no problem however I don’t have it mounted in the center like that but mounted to the outside of the post. I also leave the weight arm on it most of the time. I think they try to show it being a do it all product a little too much but for lying leg curls, leg extensions and preacher curls it gets the job done. I’m sure I’ll find some other uses for it but I would buy this with something in mind and not just thinking it can do it all.

@@HeelerGSD yes and no, I believe they made it as easy as they can. It has rollers and a handle for moving up and down on a post but once you lock in the adjustment pads that stabilize it against the upright it's a matter of loosening all 4 of those and retightening each time. I had a "set it and forget it" approach with mine. It's important to lock in the stabilizing pads against the post to keep it from being unlevel while doing anything where it's holding your weight but maybe less so for the exercises you might do higher up.

Thank you Coop for great reviews and great service for the home gym community.

I’ve had it for about 3 weeks and really like it! The product is as advertised with Coop’s point about ease of mounting is important. I have not had an issue with the plastic knobs. Very valuable for preacher curls and hamstring work.

Super innovative product! I honestly gravitate towards using it for seated leg curls, leg extensions, standing unilateral leg curls, hip thrusts, and preacher curls. Doing that alone and saving space adds a lot to anyones home gym! If you have the cash and not a ton of space, it’s worth the buy. Good breakdown Coop

I love mine, in addition to the preacher curl movement you can also just use the pad with dumbbells. Besides the movements he mentioned I also like calf raises, ab crunches, back extensions and the list goes on. Great, heavy duty piece of equipment.

COOP! You’re the man. I watch your reviews even though I know I don’t want this product lol

I love mine, haven’t had any issues with it. One of my favorite things is how easy it was to assemble. And they let me come pick it up from their facility. Customer service is top tier and it’s something that makes my single car garage gym even more legit. Love using it for leg exercises and the preacher curl ability on this thing 😮‍💨

I love mine. I sometimes add a stretch band to increase the resistance. I’ve not had the same issue with the knobs. Mine are fine. I also like it for triceps. Particularly using it for an extension while sitting with my back up against an upright bench and my elbows down on the pad. Great product.

i just started building my garage gym its going good and i got the inspiration from you, much love

I've had mine for months now, and I think this is a pretty fair review. I haven't had any problems with the knobs breaking though. I mostly use mine for leg extensions, hamstring curls, and preacher curls. Of course it does other movements but some things I'd rather just do using cables or free weights. Some other exercises it does well is hip thrusts and pullovers. I like to attach bands to the weight horn sometimes to address the resistance curve that is noticeable on longer range of motion exercises. I have to say, I'm pretty happy with mine. Are there times when I'm short on time and don't feel like setting it up? Yes. But I figured as much when I bought it. This thing brings a ton of versatility to my small gym space, and gives me options, so its worth it to me.

Had mine for about a month when you go heavier on the attachment attachment/pop knobs. The threads on the inside break and it falls apart, but the customer service was great and they were fast to send new parts. Best addition to my home gym.

I love my isolator, definitely filled a gap in my equipment at a price point that no other piece of equipment can do

I am currently building a house, so I'm taking notes of what I want in my gym. I currently have a Force USA G-12, but that is staying in the old house. I have my eye on this as that is where I feel like most functional trainers lack is machine worthy leg exercises. I am so excited to add this versatility to a small space. I'm not sure when you made this review if the racks were available, but Bulletproof now has a Tri-Post Rack. I pre-ordered it and have high hopes for this rack, Isolator, and squat rack combination. I think these with a small smith/cable combo and a dumbbell rack is a winner for a small area. Thanks for all your reviews. Love your channel!

Ive been waiting for this review for a while!!

I ordered this the moment it was dropped. The BEST purchase i've made for my home gym outside of my rack. And tricep work feels great using a rope.

I have a single Upright set up just for my dip attachment, this will be my next purchase, thank you for the video.

Awesome review. I'm waiting for mine to arrive and also thinking about purchasing their three-post rack. I also like that the steel is heavy duty, as they say, "better than commercial grade," which 9-gauge steel vs the traditional 11-gauge steel for most gyms and companies.

I love the isolator! I don’t have space to have another rack for it. So I carefully plan and prepare my workouts if I have to take it off the rack or put it on

It’s funny your recommendation on a single upright is exactly what I dit with my rack . I primarily did it for dips but now I think I van manage to keep both on . Great review

Would love to see it tested on a 2-2 and put it through its paces as the smaller racks are obviously cheaper and would make more sense to have as an always on attachment. Especially one with a pulley system. See how well they work together to cheat the weight stack.

Great job Coop

Super helpful review .. I’d consider buying this once they fix some of the areas where corners were cut to save on COGS. Also- it would have been helpful to show us how long and how difficult it is to switch setups between different exercises

Awesome review! Thank you.

BEAUTIFUL review

I’d love something like this for leg and ham curls. My squat rack is outside though but if I ever close off my garage I’m definitely getting this

I have had mine for about a month and a half. I love this piece. I have the REP short rack with holes only on the front and back of my uprights. It sits on the bottom of my rack and does not get in the way on any other exercises I do in my rack. Its made very well and has so many functions.

I am clearly not as strong as coop since I have not ripped the knobs off, but I agree it is an item for improvement. I feel like with the angle and size I have a hard time twisting the knobs to get it tight enough. I think more of a handle bar knob that can stick out further (maybe knurled) would help.

Have had my Isolator for 3.5 weeks now. All my plastic pressure plate knobs are perfectly fine from carriage to weight horn and leverage arm port. But I totally agree aluminum all around would be awesome. I just leave mine on my Titan series rack. Mine is very weighted down. Just pre-ordered the Self Adjusting/Adjustable Roller Pad and Adjustable Roller Pad Hex Port Sleeve. Love the Isolators quality. Carriage weighs 45lbs. I would buy a complete aluminum knob up-grade kit in a heartbeat. You can do reverse hypers on this as well.

Mine is on back order. Looking forward to it coming in.

Would be cool to get a single side rep athena. Bolt the upright to the wall and this to the front. Wrap the pulley around the weight horn and BOOM leg extension curl combo with a weight stack.

I hope cooper will do a review on bulletprooffitness solo deluxe stand, so we can get feedback on how stable this small standalone rack is, for the isolator.✌️

Damn! I've had basically the same design in my head for a couple of years! I'm 90% finished building my lateral raise version then I was going to move onto making this. So good to see someone finally bring something like this out, so people like me don't have to come up with it themselves!

I have a Jacked Up Fitness Smith rack and totally in love with it. I'm wondering if this will fit on that rack. If it does ... I'm buying it

I would love to see something like this that would connect to an existing cable Selectorized stack. Like REP’s Athena!

Didn't I already do this same review? just kidding Coop...Great job GOAT ;)

I take everything off mine except for the trolley, and I just leave it sitting at the very bottom of my rack. Once you know your height settings taking the components on/off only takes about a minute or so. I've timed myself before, not trying to rush or hurry or anything like that. It was about a minute and a half. If for some reason you need the trolley off the rack completely, that takes even less time. 10 seconds to get it off and move out of the way. Like anything that requires a set up time, you have to be willing to use the time setting it up initially to know where your settings are going to be. After that it's really not bad. I don't feel like this is something that gets in my way, or that I would have to have permanently installed somewhere.

I have this for about a month now and tell me one machine that can go from leg extension to lying leg curl to hip thrust all in one setting?? Yup this thing is very very versatile and the customer service is better than the product itself!!! All facts!

I’ve maybe taken it fully off my rack once or twice since I got it. Instead I just slide the carriage all the way down by the floor or all the way up if I need it out out of the way. So far no issues benching or squatting.

Okay so coop was saying that he would buy an upright and post and I can see that as being more space and time convenient. However when you add that extra cost you’re quickly getting to a place where you could just buy the Titan leg extension combo machine and the bicep curl and still have money left over. It really does come down to what you prioritize because if you have the space it would definitely be more convenient to have each individual item and its own place and it would also be a lot easier to sell or get more of your money back if you ever decide to sell them. I don’t think people would pay more than 400 or $500 on the resale market for this. But they definitely would for standalone machines. Just another factor to consider.

This whole video I was thinking "this doesn't need to take up a whole squat rack, just bolt a single upright into the corner with cross brackets at 90 degrees to each other, upper and lower, and you've got a really compact yet very versatile piece of kit." And then you give almost that very advice at the end of the video! Woop-woop Coop! Given that this video is almost a year old, I'd like to see what changes and advances the company has made. Can it be compatible with cables and stacks? Did they fix the problems you pointed out? If they've made improvements, I'd definitely love to see a revisit of this product. I'm not super strong and a lot of my work is rehab and stabilization, so it's very nice to see options for legs that aren't focused on body weight, yet can fit in a smaller home gym.

One thing I would like would be a weight plate holder that has multiple pins that allow you to load different parts of the movement more or less. I think Prime makes machines with that feature

They gotta make a trolley adaptor like Vendettas lever arm adaptors so you can just slide it all the way up to store out of the way and adjust even easier

I want one but I may have to over anchor and possibly make a top crossmember for myRogue monster light squat rack.

Good review. I have a leg extension/curl attachment on the end of my bench. I’ve been looking for something else to save space. I don’t this is it.

I bought one before Coop's review, but waiting on backorder. I'm mounting it to 2 uprights and feeding a seleectorizor weight stack to it. I bought a used Nautilus machine with 200lbs, threw the machine to the scrap yard, took the weights and fab the weights into the two uprights. I fed a pulley into the stack so there's a cable running on each side of the crossmember and back down to a former weight plate functional trainer [another piece so I have custom cable pulley heights. Then I'll run a dual eye bolt to attach the selectorizor weight stack to the weight arm of the Isolator and not worry about putting the weight horn on. Yes, it is a lot to have a weight stack on this thing, but worth it!

Does GGR do awards? As in Products of the Year awards only for products released in the previous year or so? I think you should. I'm pretty sure companies would gladly use it as a marketing tool. Could have cardio equipment, rack attachment, budget, premium, "overall product of the year" etc. I know you do product roundups in the past like be barbell, best adjustable dumbbells etc, but an annual awards (preferably say a month before a major fitness equipment expo in Vegas so winners have the chance to update their promotional material) makes absolute sense for your channel.

When you review the Rep PR 1100 please indicate whether the Isolator will work with the PR 1100.

Seems like it would be a complicated setup to add to your main rack. Would it be a good idea to install a separate wall mounted rack upright (bolted to floor) dedicated to this attachment?

btw the issue with the screws (in my experience) is not the screws them selves, it's the treading on the carriage that you screw them into... i was able to fix this by using a tap and subtly re-trheading the carriage hole.

What width crossmember would you suggest if you were to mount it on a single post like you were talking about towards the end of the video? Have the isolator on the way but just trying to plan ahead in case I run into space issues with my current rack.

I bought the GOAT attachment from stray dog to these movements before this came out and I think this is a better option, but not sure if I want to pull the trigger.

If you are concerned about the weight when moving it up and down you can rig a pull to the top if the rack or your ceiling. Tie a rope to it and then on the other end add some weight to counter it

Will this fit on a rogue monster lite or rep ares ?

so many comments about this...the isolator comes with a UHMW roller that allows it to slide up and down the upright. its heavy as fuck so you need to remove a couple of attachments but yes, it slides on the upright like a rogue trolley

Do leg curls feel more difficult at beginning or end of the movement? Ideally, it's most difficult at the stretch then easier at full contraction. This looks like the opposite given the lever arm is parallel to the ground at the end of the movement.

I'll pass on this. Coop, please review the powertec lever gym!

Near 1000$...folks if you want to do accessories so much just shop around for a powertec leverage gym (the compact unit one)...you can get those for around that price point that's what I sold my old unit for 3 years ago.

I have a request; Will some manufacturer build a seated row with a movable sliding seat. Like the water rowers for none commercial use. That way i can adjust the pin in the cable weight system. And when done fold the entire units verical next to the weight stack.

Could you use pegs and bands on it to increase loading?

When can you do a comparison between this and the Titan Fitness model????

Could you attach the cable of the rep athena to the weight arm and make it selectorized?

The Isolator isn’t my favorite attachment. I just don’t see it in that category. It is like a force multiplier in my home gym! I have used it for so many things they don’t have in their library and ideas for more! I hope bullet proof is ok because I see the PCD is off the website. Thanks for reviewing this!

I've had mine for 24 hours, and have some observations: Holy s*** the parts are heavy. I appreciate the beefy build quality, but was not expecting the seat to weigh so much. Overall, build up and break down is fine, manageable, but it's also a bit of a workout itself. And maybe it's not the weight per se, but holding the weight and then lining up the sparts jusssst so for proper insertion -- a lot more annoying than setting up a J-cup. Anyhow, I do take exception to some who say moving the carriage up and down is simple. For me, the tolerance on my 3-inch Rep post is pretty damn tight, and I let the carriage go all the way down the post and rest on the bottom -- big mistake. The spacers inside the carriage got wedged on the rack and I needed 20-plus minutes struggling with a crowbar to get the carriage unstuck. Finally, Coop is right: Bulletproof really needs to improve their reference library. It can be a struggle to get setup perfect to ensure everything is comfortable AND tension is optimized across range of motion. And then if you care about progressive overload, your settings (ie exactly how the apparatus is set up) must be recorded to the letter, or else that 30 lb plate may feel like 25 lb or 35 lb next time you the exercise. Anyhow, it feels pretty good for lying leg curls and donkey calf raises.

Has anyone used this on a Bridge Built foldable rack? I want to get one for my bridge built but the bridge built can be a little unstable just on its own. I'm curious to see how stable it would be with an attachment like this.

Maybe they could release a premium upgrade kit to address the few issues you had with the pins and the weight bar. I’d pay for better pins and a chrome weight bar.

*reading through the comments, it seems like people are mostly using this for leg curls/extensions. If that's all you're using/wanting it for, might I suggest the Williams/EliteFTS rack attached leg curl/leg extension. It's half the cost, probably 1/4 the weight, easy to store, easy to move and very high quality. It's so good, it's got me considering selling my Rogue GHD.*

could you attach it to the side of the rack so it is kind of out of the way when you are not using it but ut stays attached to the rack?

If there was a UK distributor for this I’d be seriously tempted. Not with more than $1000 shipping :-(

With the tightening\breaking of the plastic piece, seems like it should only be tightened in order to hold it up so you can put the pin in. Doesn't need to be cranked down so hard to hold it up alone..correct?

Lots of variability if you have a dedicated rack for bodybuilding movements and you like those movements. Very complex and unwieldy though. I agree with you about it being a PITA to put on and take off, much less adjust in between movements (slowing down the flow of your workout significantly if a lot of adjustments were needed). Cool and I'm glad someone innovated it but I agree it's not for everyone and may benefit from refinement. It kind of reminds me of the Ironmaster Superbench in terms of variability but definitely does not look as easy to adjust.

Hey Coop, can you please let me know if this would work on a Rogue Rhino Stand-alone? Very interested in buying but wondering if stability would be an issue when attaching to the Rhino upright (especially if Rhino is not bolted).

I know this can be placed on the rep PR 5000 but what if you have to rep Athena with the PR5000 can you still have this attachment or will the weight stacks get in the way?

I'd like to add to this review from a physical Therapy prospective. I just recently gotten rid of 3 pieces of equipment because of fast wear and tear in my clinic. I'd like to point out what I think would work from being in the business for 23 years and watching equipment go bad. What parts you need to look out for. I know this is not commercial. And if you're the only one using it, it may or may not be a problem. 1) Tightening knob. If you see one of these on any equipment that means it's either loose to begin with or over time slop occurs and gets loose. Anyone using this knobs that are not warned about pulling and tightening will either strip the threading off the bolt attached to the knob. Or yank, over tighten or accidentally tighten on a flat surface and not engaged in a hole it was extended for adjustment. Boy have I witnessed this on a very expensive exercise bike that had to be chucked in a dumpster. Not joking. The fix ; spring loaded pins. Both surfaces where the metal rides on another needs to be tight tolerances and chrome on both surfaces. Powder coat will wear leaving a sticking to both surfaces. Especially the the square tubes that ride up and down other square tubes. 2) Adjustable pull pins with knobs that don't face you. Those knobs depending on the pin or the receptacle where the pin goes in will loosen up. The Fix; in your video the 360 degree adjustment wheel , the pin needs to face the user where they're not trying to hold the weight of the carage with one arm or leg while pulling sideways. Bend that wheel where the holes face you instead of facing sideways. 3) Parts. If it looks like it will break, more than likely it will break. Order those pins and knobs at the time you buy the equipment. Or 4 years down the road maybe sooner the business has either closed or parts are no longer available. 4) That rotating arm that everything Pivots on has some sort of bushing. If it's brass bushings order 10 more parts for both sides and eternals . Trust me when I tell you this. You bring up strong points on the machine. These parts can be fixed and the equipment modified to last a very long time. I'm not a fan of squares sliding on square tubing. Expect to have to unload the weights when adjusting the leg up and down. You will be using both hands and trying to find the pin hole. Other than my concerns , I like the idea. It would make a good muscle group finisher or pump after hitting it hard on other equipment. And gyms just don't have equipment like that. (What I like )- of you are injured this equipment hanging down will have a zero capacity and only the arm and removable leg attachments can be removed to make it super light. Like if your parents or anyone with knee replacements. This is excellent. So my thinking if this company addresses these concerns I'll buy one for my physical therapy clinic. And my patients can use it everyday. ❤😮

I feel like I couldnt use this with my rep pr-5000 w/ ares cables because the cables along the uprights. would the cables interfere with this rack attachment?
