With the pulley's not being adjustable in height, does this effect doing some exercises such as face pulls or weighted ab pulldowns?

Since the preys don't adjust I find that as I adjust my body position I can do most everything I need to do

For me personally I don't have trouble doing neutral pull ups on it as is, it's a non issue for me. Hope that helps!

yes you can raise the belt and it will still work. but it will not work well, it will more like pushing. try only raising it 1" or 2" the angle is needed. try turning the tension knob to #1 first.

Not sure what you're asking. Yes, you can do incline pullups with this unit. But your hands will have to be in the neutral position. You cannot have them in either the supinator or pronator position, if that is clear to you. (If you clap your hands, you are holding them in neutral, rather than supinator or pronator position.)

There is adjustable tension that applies equally to both upper and lower body. You cannot adjust them independently, but I believe that is true of this type of equipment generally.

Hello, If the pull up bar has a traight part and you have like 30/ 40 centimeters above to get youre feet in it will work on every thing. I,m not a seller but these things make you happy, i ,am for having them, thay also feel realy secure, it,s realy the best you can have!. Good luck with it.

You might think that from the picture, but no, the rope goes through a ratcheted pulley, i.e. you pull it down to set the tension and it stays in place. It also has a safety feature that causes the pulley to slip if you set the tension too high. I highly recommend it for its comfort and ease of use (versus the type that use 30 lb bags of water to set the tension). One drawback - I'm tall (6'4") and because of how far the tension mechanism hangs down, I basically have to sit on the floor when hooking it to a door to get it to work properly.

You'd have to call them and ask. I've thought of it myself when I bought it, and it has holes for a second one, at least mine does. I was going to see if they'd send a new chin up bar if I claimed the one I had was warped, but after I got it I didn't find it necessary, and the one that's there I occasionally bang my head on when racking and unracking a squat, so it'd be an issue every time you got into the rack even for average height. The overall structure of the unit is pretty good without an extra chin up bar. I've had 500lbs racked without problem, and I've also done dips with my 330lb body on it by placing two barbells across the safety pins with no complaints, I've also turned the existing chin bar there into an adjustable lat/ab/tricept pull down cable machine by attaching pulleys to it. No complaints whatsoever. As long as you dont do plank pullup side twists with the bar, which would be hard to do with the rack, it will hold.

I have used my Bayou fitness for almost 2 years, almost on a daily basis, and had no problem with the pulleys and I am a big guy. So I don't think you have to worry about the strength of the plastic pulleys.

You will need to provide ample space completely around the machine in order to complete all of the available exercises and to ensure the bows are not obstructed. The weight bows arch out several feet on the sides. In order to adjust weight you must get to the back of the machine. At least one exercise (hip-abduction) has you extend your foot several feet or more to the side of the machine. While I can't provide specific ranges, you want to consider a three foot minimum clearance as a general basis.

On the lowest setting, no. You basically push your hips forward while squeezing your buttocks. This contraption is amazing! only thing i have found to actually help me. Good luck

For me it tends to get in the way more of chin ups then pull ups, but it does get in the way on both. You can always remove the middle part to free up space.

Hi, My wife and I have been using the Total Trainer DLX-III for a couple of years now and love it. We've had no problems whatsoever with the pulleys, nor any other component of the unit. It's well built and durable. We actually ordered the TotalGym before we bought the Total Trainer and were very disappointed in its build quality and design. We promptly sent it back, and upon further research discovered the Total Trainer. Highly recommended! Good Luck.

No, it is not meant for pull-ups or chin-ups. This bar is meant to be connected to a cable machine and used for bicep curls, tricep curls, rows, etc.

For some excersizes its as easy as moving arms different ways or legs .it not hard at all to detach pulleys .So very easy to use definately user friendly !

Adjustable. You can do one arm low and high crossovers as well. The pulleys are smooth as silk and handles weight. Only criticism is if you are not sitting on the chair, you'll need to make sure you have at least one foot on the stand or it's going to tip over. I bought a Yukon Long Base cage and am happy with the pulley system that I added on. But LATS work better/smoother on the CB-12.

Yes the bench does adjust up and down to accommodate incline and a slight decline. As far as the hamstring exercises go I really only use the Leg Developer for leg extensions and leg curls.
