How Much Would This Lat Pulldown Support?

Vanchatron · 04-24-2007, 03:25 AM

I need a Lat Pulldown attachment and I found this one on the Internet that can attach to my bench as I have the exact bench pictured which it is attached to.

I'm just wondering how much weight it would be able to support though as I don't want to buy it and then have it break after loading it with a certain amount of weight.

Obviously you won't know the exact weight but if anybody has any experience with this type of equipment and can help me out I'd appreciate it.

I have a very similar one and all the plastic cracked at over 100lbs but it had an aluminum interior. Not to mention that without the leg braces it's pretty well worthless. I use it for ab pulldowns still though and sometimes tricep ropework.

Go with a chin up bar and you can attach bands to your feet and the top of the chinup bar to assist if needed.
