    Force USA Power Rack

    Has anybody used the cable crossover section for Force USA? Is it worth getting..... Does anybody know if the non commercial Force USA rack is going to be better than this rack? littlebloke has brought it to my attention that the mounting rods on the j-hooks on this rack are very short, and...

    Thanks mate. The force USA rack might be the only option for me now locally. I didn't even think about the pulley system to get in the way of the rear mounts. I definitely want to bench from there! I will check it out again tomorrow on my way through to Gym and Fitness as well as the other stuff...

    Thanks for your comment mate :) I missed those things! I will go back in tomorrow and double check this and report back about the other things you mention also :( - I am finding it so hard to get something local that is still solid and good quality! Gym and Fitness are my next stop tomorrow...

    Sorry to bump an old thread, Are you referring to the weight of the commercial mmpr or the standard? I only say this because GymDirect told me the net weight was roughly 100kg for the non commercial

    It's funny you should mention that. I was over there earlier and I went to 2 different locations to look at the gear. I felt like I wasn't getting the help I needed and it just felt like people were fighting for sales. I was the only person in there so I guess it makes sense, but anyway I spoke...

    With Certegy there is no interest rate. They charge the retailer the initial percentage for the service and that is most likely incorporated in to the package price. The 5 gyms nearest to me (I need 24 hour access) are $25 a fortnight. My repayments on the gym after deposit will be $60 a...

    I spoke with him on the phone and he was extremely nice and incredibly honest. However, he did not offer finance :( - The companies he has tried through have told him they aren't accepting any more online focused businesses, even though he has a showroom!

    I have checked gumtree and have seen decent ones for $300, however I am doing finance as I am studying again and can't afford to buy things outright. Once I start adding everything up (second hand or not) it's still going to be far too expensive for me to buy without finance. A loan is also not...

    I spoke with them on the phone and they were helpful. I live an hour from them and haven't yet had the time to visit them. Like I mentioned earlier, I am favouring the MMPR and they don't stock this. They stock Healthstream, Boy Solid and Force USA. I am still a bit hesitant to buy any of these...

    Thanks guys. I don't get discount because I'm doing finance, which is another reason I think it will be easier to do it in my state for all the paperwork! @wingman - Is the Oly bar in the MMPR/Powertec packages ok?

    Anybody? I understand there are a lot of these threads however none are dealing with my scenario! I can't find any talk about Bodyworx, a lot of the threads are from 2 years ago and things change all the time. I am basically saying this Should I buy from my state and get Bodyworx or Force...
