One of the BEST Rack Attachments That’s Budget Friendly? Mikolo Leg Curl and Leg Extension Review!

[@LukesGarageGym]

Thoughts on this budget friendly piece? What’s your go to rack attachment? Mikolo wanted me to clarify that they don’t sell 2x2 or 2x3 versions of this attachment anymore due to safety issues with those racks with this attachment, by the way, so it only fits 3x3 racks

[@randerodr7389]

Don't you need the pads on top of your legs when doing seated leg curls ? Every machine I've used had one. Did you leave it out or can it be used that way ?

[@LukesGarageGym]

@ You prob should lol! I use the handles to hold me down honestly with working sets

[@randerodr7389]

@@LukesGarageGym I saw that. So the pads can be used. Thanks for replying. I like the feel of seated leg curls and although not small that takes up less space than a standalone.

[@LukesGarageGym]

@ yeah me too. I just love space saving home gym designs!

Solid review man it was just incredibly well informed and just entertaining to watch. Keep up the amazing work and I look forward to what incredible content you have in store for the new year. LFG! 💯👊🤙😎

LETS GO!!!!

[@NoFate247]

Do you even do leg day?! Great review!!!! How will you store it

[@LukesGarageGym]

LOL curls is leg day right?🤣🤣 and bro, no idea. I feel like you gotta just lay it on the ground when not in use. It’s so dang bulky

[@NoFate247]

@ yeah those random attachments are impossible to store

[@LukesGarageGym]

@ really are man lol about to throw in a giant tub when not in use LOL

[@killerkhatiby009]

Solid review, though I wish you would've shown some footage of you using the plate hack! I'd be curious to see how well it actually works with this setup. Given how annoying it is to put on and off and ideally needing a dedicated rack upright for this it doesn't seem like you save much space since you lose a part of your rack to use this. I feel like most would probably be better off just getting a dedicated machine like the Lionscool v3.0 or Gear for Fit Freestanding Leg Extension/Curl. Would love to see a review of those!

[@LukesGarageGym]

It’s so funny you say they Lionscool because I just got it in!! I want to try and test the hack more and post some more shorts of it up but wanted to get this review out atleast to give my thoughts on it right now so I just mentioned HGHR and what he did

[@ThomasHentschelLund]

I have something similar as this attachment - but without the seat - for around $100 on Aliexpress. What I did was to remove the weight horn, put on a bolt with a hole and attach it to a low row cable in my rack. Gives full strength curve and makes it super low profile on the inside of the rack.

[@LukesGarageGym]

dude, that is awesome! You should send me a picture of our video of it to my email into description of the video because I think that’s an awesome idea! Finding a way to get it to your existing cable stack literally solves all these issues

[@ThomasHentschelLund]

@@LukesGarageGym Sent!

[@50CalFitness]

Nice!

[@LukesGarageGym]

good value!!!

[@bigk2080]

Try adding elastic bands to the weight horn, it should help with resistance at the bottom of the movement.

[@LukesGarageGym]

good tip too! I will try that out! What’s your thoughts on this piece?

[@bigk2080]

I love the concept Unfortunately I think Im too tall 6'8​ and I own a Titan X3 5/8 holes😢@@LukesGarageGym

[@LukesGarageGym]

@ dang! I want that height though! I feel like I am shrinking LOL Do you have a dedicated machine or anything for these movements :/

[@bigk2080]

I have an old school adjustable bench from Powerline with a leg attachment. I use the attachment just f​or lyingleg curls.@@LukesGarageGym

[@bigk2080]

@@LukesGarageGym I have leg attachment that fits my adjustable bench. I use it for lying leg curls.

[@AviatorsGarage]

Nice man! How is it compared to the major fitness leg attachment?

[@LukesGarageGym]

Man, I like this more from a durability aspect in regards to it just being more higher quality. I have to do so much weight on the major fitness one to feel it at all. This is the winner for sure!

[@AviatorsGarage]

@ awesome brother! Great videos. I’m right behind ya!

[@LukesGarageGym]

@ you the man! Appreciate you!

[@AviatorsGarage]

@ love the content brother! Keep it going.

[@Whitechocolate1872]

Was going to order using your link and discount but it says sold out for 2 X 2 racks. Also I found it curious that 2X 2 is the same price as the one for 3 X 3

[@LukesGarageGym]

Yeah :/ when I was editing I saw sold out :/ wonder if they will be back soon. And right? Wonder if you can find on Amazon

[@fwiffo42]

I was able to snag this for $154 off Temu this summer which was a steal! I'm working on a permanent mobile stand for it because I find it annoying to put on and take off the rack 😂

[@LukesGarageGym]

$154 YAHTZEE BABY!!! dude, absolutely the biggest pain in the world 🤣

[@fwiffo42]

@@LukesGarageGym Yeah, I think just under $200 is where this attachment has its sweet spot in terms of price to value. The steel is thicker than I expected which was nice and I like this design better than Titan and Bells of Steel where the weight horn is on attached to the same arm as the leg roller.

[@LukesGarageGym]

@ I think so too. They will sell out like crazy at that price point!!

[@adampape8734]

I feel like these really missed the mark. Between Walmart and Temu you can get a stand alone piece between $150-$225 that does a much better job. The rack attachment aspect seems more gimmicky than beneficial. Love the budget home gym content… keep it coming

[@LukesGarageGym]

yeah, there’s definitely a lot of those out there! I think this is a market for people who don’t want to free up any more space and just want this on their rack and then they use their rack with this on it for powerlifting if you use the seat on the outside of the rack! What’s your go to leg extension leg curl unit?

[@adampape8734]

@ I have been using the valor fitness one for about two years. Just pulled the trigger on a syedee one with the attached leg holder instead of the t shaped one that valor has. Hate that leg holder design hoping the syedee is better. $146 delivered from temu with coupon is hard to beat. I paid more than that for my used valor fitness one a couple years ago.

[@LukesGarageGym]

@ really is hard to beat!! Send me an email or DM on Instagram with pics and updates! Love to see how it is! Love seeing the budget equipment being utilized in home gyms

[@Oho159]

sadly not avaibable in EU

[@LukesGarageGym]

dang :/ I am sorry man

[@Oho159]

@LukesGarageGym Eu lacks alot of gym equipment sellers.. we dont even have titan fitness 🥲

[@Jay-fc4fg]

The hack doesn't work for me because the adjust pin is only 180 degrees. If it went further like 360 degree like it does in HGHR. The hack would work

[@LukesGarageGym]

I gotcha!! I don’t use it on this but I know he’s done something like that and wanted to throw that option out there you know? That’s good to know. Bigk said to try bands! Have you tried that at all?

[@Jay-fc4fg]

@LukesGarageGym yes this works!! Just have to make sure you get the right bands. Half my workouts I add bands the other half I just use wieghts.. still working on getting the best bands for this atrachment.

[@LukesGarageGym]

@ I need to try! I never use bands in general and need to more. Let me know what you find!!
