Let me tell you why. My background is in design. The handle is to keep the DNA of the brand which recall the 50 Cal of their jammer arms. The length of the trolley is because I suspect that they are working on adds on for the machine. I can already see how to do a lat pull down, leg extension and curl. I ordered mine last night and will work on making it better. Outstanding review keep up the good work. Deepdirk
I have the drop in Rhino for the RM3 and love it. Mine isn't facing a wall like yours so I use it for seated rows. I use it for lat pull downs, tricep extensions, and curls. It was well designed. I have the Rogue shackle with Spud Inc upper pulley and it works great. I take the horn off when I'm using it for anything other than squats. I didn't think about using a band. Note. The newer belts come with D rings which is nice. I hate the twist lock carabiner it comes with. It sits in a box.
Hello ! Is it possible to load on the plates from the front ? I`m thinking of buying this machine, and were I am gonna put it, there wont be space to walk around and load the plates from the sides.
Which direction is the front? If, to you, the front is the platform side, then yes, it's possible, but not easy. If it's your only option, I would actually suggest you expose the plate side to the room, and then climb over it to do your exercise.
@@JasonCloseOK Yes that is correct, I meant that the front is the platform side. I have been thinking of doing as you said, having the plate side to the room. The handles that you hold on to when squating, is it possible to take then of? They just slide of when the pin is out? Thank for your answer!
@@johanbengtsson3696 Yes. The handles are held on by the large pins with rubber handles. Same pins that hold the plate storage attachments to the Monster posts, or that are used for the trolley arms. I tested it, and you will definitely have to take a handle off to get in and out from that direction.
There is no reason you should have to start the movement from your nearly bottomed out position. Sounds like you need to adjust where you have it clipped on your belt. I’ve watched tons of people use this machine at different heights not have that issue at all.
It's a comfort thing. I don't understand why they didn't accommodate taller folks. I'm not the only one who has this problem. It's not a deal breaker, but I think it's a legit critique.

Yeah being able to do lat pull downs or weighted pull ups using this would be a great reason to keep the longer trolley.
It's been 4 years since they released this there are no add one except the ability to drop this in the rack
@@Magnus-pm7ic not enough people bought them, but hey now they have a functional trainer which they are teasing might have interconnectivity somehow.

You ever consider the squatmax?

Good overview and thoughts, I've heard other rave about this so its nice to know it ain't the best thing on earth.
