See lots of negative comments guys - this is a awesome really machine for the money. One demo and I was sold ordered mine. Honestly, it’s close enough to perfect for me and nothing compares I’ve seen in the $1500 to $2000 price range.I looked at all the big name players in that price range before buying. Sure maybe spend another $1000 plus get a better machine in that increased price range. $2000 was top for my budget. People under 5’2” maybe need to remove the safety stop. Normal sized folks 5”4 to 6’2” it’s about perfect with safety stopper dropped all the way no pin . I have no idea for folks over 6’3” maybe work well, maybe not I’m to short to know that one LOL.
@@lbcitylacounty90810 That, I'm not sure of. I have the Compact Leg Press, which has no storage. And the machines I have from other brands- the plate storage is Olympic (some go the other route,but it appears Force USA may also use Olympic Storage. You could try e-mailing them or searching the site; and see if they offer 1' standard storage pegs. I don't even use a tree. I have no room. So, I leave them stacked on the floor
Like everything about it but the safety block. The safety is the multiple levels available with the engagement handles one each side that rotate to hold the carriage. Much better than the use of a block to hold the weight in one spot between the legs.
You probably dont care but does any of you know a trick to log back into an Instagram account? I somehow lost my password. I would love any help you can offer me
@Lane Edward thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site thru google and im waiting for the hacking stuff now. Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will get back to you later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@@jrhernandez505 On the Compact Leg Press I can go a little past 90 degrees and use resistance bands on it, the monster leg press probably the same in the hack squat position
@@homegym9964 I seen one for sale close to me and the owner removed that safety stopper completely so I’m assuming the hack squat should work a lot better I’m only 5’8 and I heard if you’re short it won’t work as it should
Tf sort of hack squat is that? I've never seen someone do it facing that way - the other way is obviously the standard way and the way it should've been shown.
It does look strange, Michael, but there are some benefits to performing a reverse hack squat. Namely, more engagement from the glutes and hamstring, but we'd have to agree, you don't see it too often. 🙂

The fact that it offers standard, is going to make Force USA my preferred option. So grateful for that feature
What about the sides where you store them?? Wondering if it's also standard which I'm hoping...all I have are Standard Plates.

Is it also standard plate size to store them on the sides...I'm hoping it takes standard plates all over??
Onde encontro este aparelho aqui no Brasil.
Does this machine work for those who are on the shorter side? I'm 5'4.
Missed opportunity for sure. Looks like they have selected very short models to hide the lack of range. Make it longer and it will be hard to beat.
Use of gym mats can be used to increase range of motion for shorter folks.
With the addition of a movable arm, the platform could perform the same floating movement as the Nautilus XP Load leg press

@Lane Edward It worked and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy:D
Thank you so much you saved my ass!
@Princeton Lucian No problem :D
Carly isn't enough distraction from that dumpster fire of a hack squat design you did
They don't want to show you the regular hack squat movement because it is impossible to do it deep because of that stupid safety stopper.
You can remove the pin and stopper to go deeper, i have the compact and thats what I do on mine
@@homegym9964 how much more can you go ? Like what’s the difference

@@jrhernandez505 Nice, Probably still go 90 degrees or you can just use some mats underneath feet to get lower
