I was looking for info on curling in my rack, but this review was even better!
😂
I don't have a rogue rack or need one but I like that product bc of the way you did the review. Kudos. Very informative and honest.
Best slinger review vid Ive seen. Nice job! I appreciate the information
Super informative and well produced! Thank you!
Thank you, much appreciated
Thanks man, great vid and just subscribed , you helped me with my decision, which is a big YES!!!! to the slinger.
That's a good, solid review! I agree about limited functionality compared to your old system. Nice to have that pulley point movable from high to low and all points in between. Thanks for all your great content.
Thanks man, I really appreciate it!
Great slinger review, very useful to see the versatility achieved with the kit 👍
Thanks man!
This may have just solidified my Rogue purchase. Thanks.
You are welcome, happy to help 💪🏻
Great review 👏
Good true detailed review on how to fix and the functional usage. Should the Rack be bolted to ground to use the Slingers? I do not want to break the garage foundation for the bolts. Please advice and thanks.
Mine isn’t bolted down but it is secured to the wall
Great idea with the magnets !
Thank you, happy to help
Hey man. Where do you get the numbers for your rack? Can you explain it? Looks really cool and dynamic.
Do the video for rack mount legs for lat pull down please
Coming soon!!!
Great review. Nice work explaining how you can make the slinger more versatile with a little southern ingenuity!
Thanks man, the video helped me
Great review! Have you uploaded your video on the DYI leg anchor or do you have any recommendations to buy one? I bought a Rogue Monster Lite, just waiting for it to get here.
I’ve decided to not only build the leg anchor, but also incorporate a seat and seated row attachment and foot pedi stool.... video coming next week!!!
Great review, thanks.
I’m very happy with this content
Nice Review
U mentioned everything a person needs to know before buying
Great review! Would you Happen to know if the slinger would work for a RML 390, 30” depth? Thank you…
It should ( i have mine mounted to extremely short cross members on my wall now) check out the (wall mounted folding pulley system vid) on my channel for more info.
I don’t remember if you did this on one of your videos or not.. But you think you could do all the measurements on like where the cable first meet the pully to where you sit down on the lat pull down seat. I wanted to pick one of these up so bad but I’m afraid I won’t get a full stretch like I do at the gym.
I also have a monster lite 90in rack
Not sure if your still responding to this video but have you considered reversing the cable, it’s seems you would be able to lower the plate holder more and give you more range of motion on the handle side.
great video, could you tell me the approx. length of the secondary cable you made that you use for bicep curls?
75 inches
Nice video. How is the resistance during the tricep pushdowns compared to something in a gym like a life fitness dual cable cross over?
Very smooth, but not quite as nice as that commercial gym piece of equipment.... just because of the little bit of sway the plates have when pulling on them
Thank you for the honest review! sub
The only type of review I’ll ever do, thank you
Nice video dude. Finally getting my slinger 🙌🏻. The solo pulley was ordered after but shipped before , so just been waiting on the monster slinger. I got the 100” rack as well so hopefully that with the short lever arm set up works well. 💪🏼 if you ever find yourself wanting to sell anything lmk! I know you’ve got quite a few pieces in that gym! 🙏🏻
Awesome man, I’m finding I like the slinger a lot more after I got it off the rack onto its own upright... are you local?
@@CurlsintheRack no, I’d have to pay shipping. But yeah either way I do that. I’m in Texas.
Great review. I'm curious how the slinger would work if you have the trolly arms on the inside of the rack (basically what you have in the video, but on the inside of the rack). Would they get in the way of the weight plate or the lower band attachment?
I do that in some of the lever arm videos on the channel
what are you using to plant your feet on for the rows at 17:00?
the front of the rack mounted anchor I built... DIY video coming soon!!!
@@CurlsintheRack still waiting on that vid!!
How far apart art the bolts that secure the slinger to the cross members. Rogue doesn’t recommend it for my RML-390BT. My rack is 30”. I am willing to drill holes and make modifications to the slinger. Just curious. Thank you.
10 inches on center.. hope that helps
If you are limited by ceiling space is there an option to install the slinger as a side mount. I have about an inch of clearance using my the rm-6 rack
You would need a crossmember to install on top of, so if you buy a separate crossmember and place it lower on the rack, this would be possible.
@@CurlsintheRack Thank you. Yes, I was going to get a middle crossmember, but I am think you mean get a crossmember and install it on the uprights on other side of the rack?
Hey thanks for the review. Do you happen to know if it will work with rep fitness pr-4000?
Great video review man, definitely answered a lot of the questions I had about this. I'm considering getting the selectorized version especially now that Rogue released the lat seat but it's just so damn much compared to others. Thinking of going with the Titan selectorized tower for around $150 less than the Rogue option.
Rogue has changed up their cable length. They also have quality issues with the plate stack. So I recommend against it.
how do I drill those 1 inch holes? if im not experience should I just order the crossmembers? ik their going to set me back a couple hundred bucks.. ugh
no, super easy...I explain how to do it in my pulley system video... th-cam.com/video/p2r9UZBanhM/w-d-xo.html
Is that the RML-490C rack?? I just ordered that rack with the slinger and was curious
It is sort of a mashup of the uprights from the folding rack and the rml-490... but the slinger is definitely compatible with the RML-490C rack.... hope that helps.
How tall is the slinger when installed onto your Rogue RML-3W wall mount rack? I have the same wall rack and want the slinger, but I’m not sure my garage has the ceiling clearance
its actually not on the folding rack.... but from the floor to the top of the slinger is 97 inches, hope that helps
@@CurlsintheRack Thanks for that. I have exactly 97". (I feel kinda dumb. That is obviously not a folding rack in your video. I think I confused it with someone's video.)
I'm also located in Portland, Oregon. If you're looking to sell it, I may purchase it if you can give me a good price being that I can come pick it up.
Can you use Titan X3 accessories on your rogue monster rack ? Are the holes on both racks same ?
Titan uses a slightly larger pin hole on their rack, so Rogue attachments will fit on Titan Racks but not the other way around... Hope that helps
@@CurlsintheRack so even if I buy 1 inch hole rogue monster still I will not be able to use other companies attachments ? I heard they all use same 1 inch hole in their premium racks. You know I love monster racks but I want Titan accessories 😂 wrist roller and neck attachment is my most. I want to use them on rogue RM 4 fortis 1 inch hardware.
@@CurlsintheRack I like your voice bro so I keep watching your videos even if I’m not interested in buying that product.
Did you get the bottom rogue pulley yet? I notice in the videos you seem like you regret giving up the Titan, but you plan on getting the rogue bottom pulley...if it works like you assume, do you plan on keeping the Rogue setup? Or do you think the Titan would still be better?
oh yeah, I ordered the pulley seat and lower roller in late December.... nothing has been shipped yet but i'm excited to get these and test.... I think it will be a game changer for the Slinger...Finally... I'll test and get a review up ASAP.. Thanks for watching!
@@CurlsintheRack th-cam.com/video/2ViPKl7INJY/w-d-xo.html Might want to check this video out at 1:30. Guy just uses pins to hold his feet down and sits on a bench...and this might even work better with the Rogue Monster Mini Feet and the pins through them? Worth a try I'd guess.
How well do you think this would work for the RML-390F (flat foot, non bolted down version). Do you feel it would it pull the rack and cause it to slide if I’m doing a face pulls or over head tricep extensions for example?
Just noticed you took the leverage arms off. Will that be an issue and will leverage arms get in the way of slinger?? Hkw do u like the leverage arms are they a pain like people say? Debating between the compact multipress powertec machine or leverage arms. I have a prx wall rack but so.ebody wants to buy it.
Lever arms always get in the way, no matter where you put them ;) you will constantly be moving them, unless they lock up and out of the way. And you have head room for that.
If you don't mind me asking, is your main rack bolted to the floor? I use a Monster lite RML-390FULLW (four post) wall mount rack, and Rogue support are telling me not to order the slinger as they required the rack to be bolted to the floor. My question is - how does stability of the rack feel when using it; if you are also a wall mounted unit as it appears?
Mine is bolted to the wall up top with 2 crossmembers, reason being is that my upright aren’t able to be bolted to the floor.... slinger works great.... even with only two crossmembers bolted to the wall... hope that helps
Did you buy the slinger? If so how's it working for you? I have the same rack and was considering ordering. Thanks
You still thinking about getting rid of the slinger? Or do you like it more now that you’ve had it longer?
Where can I find the thing you tightened on the band peg? Thanks
It came with the land mine attachment from rogue
Curls in the Rack awesome, thanks for getting back with me! New subscriber!
Do those grommets come already on the cable ?
no, but they pop over the cable pretty easily during installation process
@@CurlsintheRack If I had custom cables made by a professional for the slinger and solo will 1” rubber grommets fit over the cables end and the black stopper ball?
Is that rubber grommet 1” ? The reason for custom made cables is that the cables from Rogue are to long. I’m 6’3” and have a long reach.
Thank you 👍
I have not seen anyone with the weight stack yet .
Does this work on the half folding rack
Have you seen my video “slinger on folding rack”?
@@CurlsintheRack no but I'm about to
Where did you get the numbers on your rack?
Stencils/paint 👍 I have a diy video on the channel about it.... check it out
Any chance you know if this will function with your folding rack you have?
It will not without some modifications... the folding crossmembers on that rack do not that hole from the top to bottom... only left to right.... so the pulley can’t go through... hope that help
@@CurlsintheRack thanks for the quick response. I’ve been searching the internet for anyone who added more than a pull up bar and dip attachment to this rack so I appreciate the video of the lever arms. Did you try anything else before you made the full rack
how does it feel when u lat pull down?
Super Smooth!!!
Thank you for producing this video. It answered my questions and helped me decide, "No."
12:30 200 iq play
Rogue has a solo pulley option coming out to compliment the slinger as a mid low pulley. It's clearly still evolving.
oh yeah... can't wait for it to arrive/use/review!
dont sell it!!!!! they just released the bottom pulley attachment that moves up and down as well as the seat attachment.
Ordered... Excited to try them out and review.... Thanks for the heads up!
They need something that can slide up and down.. stationary slinger not worth it
lower pulley oredered... review coming soon....ish! you can put it wherever you want on the upright.
Great Review! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
