Good morning,
Im looking to add a smith machine to my home gym because I train alone and it would allow me quite a few exercises. Id like to get a smith/squat rack in one to cut down on space. I want to find one that doesn't feel like a cheap pos. Some of them have this drag on the bearings it feels like that creates an unnatural resistance.
I always enjoyed the feeling of the cybex smith machines or Arsenal but they dont have an all in one.
I was wondering if anyone has such a setup at home that could recommend or provide feedback on the brand they have and what they think of it?
I have checked:
Fray has reasonably priced commercial smith machines only. They also have a smith/ cable/ half rack that is not bad price wise. I just dont know how the bearings will feel?
Rep doesnt make a smith to my best knowledge?
There are tons of cheap all in one Chinese ones on ebay but I have no idea how the quality or feel is.
I dont mind spending a little more money on a decent one if it has cables attached. I own the Sorinex cable stack now that I dont particularity love the feel of. I stole it though so based on what I spent for it versus what its worth, I could sell it and pay for the piece above im looking for if it came down to it.
Thanks alot
