Amazing tool, it`s basically the base for a whole pulley system on your rack and you don`t need to use your lever arms for this purpose.

Honestly, installing the bolts isn't bad at all if you follow my suggestions and once installed, there shouldn't really be a reason to move it around/uninstall it IMO. Good question!

Think of the trolley as a weight loading pin that glides up and down your upright as opposed to free hanging/swinging around. You can set the trolley at whatever height you want and go. The Slinger high/low setup utilizes two cables (which is what you see in the video). You use the cable running through the top pulley for your high work and connect the lower for your low work.

While I definitely see what you mean, I think the ability to perform belt squats seamlessly/effortlessly alone is worth the price of admission (and it's considerably cheaper than a rhino even after buying all the Slinger accessories). It really depends on the space you have and how much you're willing to give up for standalone items in my opinion. Both will work equally well but the quality difference going this route will be quite noticeable in my opinion (I mean Rogue is Rogue for a reason 😂 compared to Titan and this bully glider fits right into the mix).

7 ай бұрын

I appreciate you watching! I too have a 90-in rack and agree that the cable that ships with the Slinger seems a bit too long due to it hanging down so low. What I found to be the actual issue is the stopper that Rogue added to the cable. It basically dictates how much cable will hang down off the front and in my opinion they positioned the stopper up too high which allows too much cable to hang down. What I ended up doing is using the cable that came with my solo slinger as it does not have a stopper! Without the stopper, the cable retracts further up and gives me a fantastic range of motion! If you don't have the solo slinger, you can actually flip the cable around that comes with the slinger and use it backwards (with the stopper section on the inside connecting to the weights or trolley) Hopefully that makes sense 😂

Having two Glyders would ensure that each arms is pulling evenly (which is what I would prefer). Also keep in mind that Bully is building upon this Glyder system (a functional trainer idea is in the works) therefore having two Glyders isn't the worst idea IMO. Hopefully that helps!

Should I get ares and squat max md belt squat?? this way I will have functional trainer, lat pull down and low rows with weight stack plus 4 post rep rack for about $6000 SECOND OPTION.. RML- 390F with straps, high and low slinger, rogue lat pull down seat, bully glyder and a separate titan functional trainner with weight stacks for about $5200-5500.?? I know at the end iam the one that decides but what would u do?? Like rhino bt squat too but it will be like $700 more than the squat max md plus squat max smaller foot print. I hope I did my math right. Lol

Such a hard decision man! Ultimately I think it'll come down to if you want a TRUE functional trainer or something rigged up to semi perform like one. An ARES system will function more so like a functional trainer out of the box than the Glyder (although the Glyder can certainly be rigged up to work quite well). You honestly won't go wrong either way IMO. Also...while I don't have any experience at all with the Squat Max, I can say that I specifically avoided it due to I absolutely HATE top loaded pins!!! The Rhino is like the Glyder in that it utilizes side loaded pins which are incredibly easy to load up (unlike what I've seen with the Squat Max). Hopefully this helps and consider using my affiliate links which ever route you decide to go!

@@MattPendergraph thank u Matt. I think I made my desicion. Rogue slim wall rack, Titan weigjt stack lat pull down and inspire FT or maybe ft3000. The only downside is that when I decide to get rhino or squat max gotta find space. Ares looks pretty cool but don't know if I will like everything in one rack specially when working out with wife. I also gotta keep the front post pretty much free for trolleys and can't incline inside ares.

Does it come with both side or do I have to purchase each individually?

You have to purchase each side individually

Can you load barbells into them to connect the two for a real Smith machine type experience for like squats and stuff? Assuming you buy two and it lines up

Brother I just bought a slinger by rogue and think I might just add this to it. I see though that he only has payment through PayPal. I hate PayPal wish he had Apple Pay. Maybe you could mention that to him 😉

@@Al_304 It could be if you don't already have one. I have several rack attachments and most of them ship with these pins so I have several lying around. You can also use a bolt or a piece of rod, just whatever fits through your rack holes and is strong enough to support the unit

Oh I still have it (it's in the section off to the side of my rack) I'm just showcasing this beauty as an option for those who either don't want or can't afford the stack

Greater idea but after you price in a slinger and a lat pull down seat you might as well get a dedicated machine.

The Slinger setup isn't a must, it's just my preferred method of using the Glyder. It'll completely come down to user needs, what they want to purchase in addition to, and what they already have available to them.
