RitFit Functional Trainer Squat Rack Review - Cheap, But BIG Feature System!

[@BasementBrandon]

So some feedback from me, RitFit has also sent me the rack with my conditions being that it would be given to a friend of mine starting his gym. I went and put it together for him which was a relatively easy process. The materials felt pretty cheap to me and the final product is not something I would personally want/use. However, I had previously bought this friend a $100 or so basic squat stand from Walmart and he likes the RitFit rack a lot more. I will not be doing a video on this rack however as I found RitFit was quite rude/demanding in producing content despite my initial feedback that it was low priority for me and did not confirm a delivery date.

[@serpentking8503]

😳

[@derschutz4737]

In comparison to the Fitness Reality rack, similar materials? Or compared to something that can hold a whale? If it's comparable to the Fitness Reality, I squat 455 on it and feel fine, but I do have the storage horns for a good base. If the rack can just tank 800-1000 lbs falling at shoulder height, im not worried one bit.

[@vengeance7x6661]

For the money, Valoer fitness offers a better product with something like their BD33 rack that has options for cables. A little more money, but so much better value

[@derschutz4737]

@@vengeance7x6661 Yeah but that costs way more and it takes a crap ton more space. Is there anything with a similar space footprint that has 2 points of contact for the pulleys?

Why do u post? Not even ur channel and u have to say something

[@ernestocobos2367]

I bought mine a month ago. Love it it does everything it’s supposed to and it feels smooth af. If you get creative there’s a lot of shit you can do. Agree with all quirks but for the price it looks and feels nice

[@rpgdegree6027]

You reviewed my rack! I agree with all the quirks and benefits you pointed out, no regrets. I have had mine for a year and it does everything I need. I got mine off Amazon and bundled a ritfit weight set and adjustable bench to save even more. Nothing amazing, does everything, cheap!

[@jamaglaqui3912]

im a year late XD but does ur rack still holds well? Im thinking of getting this rack and I wanna know if it holds really well for a long timee

[@Latorreca]

So, I have had mine for the past four months. I Believe it is excellent for the value paid for…. Use it three times a week. Cables and ergonomic work. I bought some dip bars and taped the upper lateral (multi-grip) bar, which has worked for me. My cage came with one pull-down bar and one small pull-down, one v bar for back workouts, one swivel bar adapter for the Olympic bar to do back workouts, 1-foot rests, and four resistant bands small bar. I love it. But if I had to buy again, I would buy the Major Lu tie to use as a full rack power bar. I still love it. 9:50

[@alexreichanadter]

Funny that the weight on the trainer was worth more than the rest of the system.

[@Jason_Cade]

Titan t2 all the goodies added on! I have one with almost every attachment and it’s the most bad ass home gym cage you could ask for, truly all in one

[@kylewalton4424]

I would be interested in seeing this compared to the HulkFit Power Rack with the optional Functional Trainer (Cable Crossover) add-on.

[@selfelected3832]

That's definitely something I want to see

[@frofres]

Excited that you're preparing a review for Major Luttie. I got the plm03 with a decent discount and so far happy with this. My only complain is the incompatibility with any accessory due to the weird size of the post 2.75x2 So I'm hopping maybe you find a hack/workaround on your review for that

[@StevenSeiller]

There are some 3rd party shims that will take up the space inside the mount. Not sure about your dimensions.

[@ianandrews-b5i]

@@StevenSeiller I wasn’t aware of that option. Definitely something to consider. Thanks for the tip 😊.

[@rashadferrari3791]

what type of accessories you try?

[@frofres]

@@rashadferrari3791 So far the only thing that I could make work is a 3x3 1 inch Jcup and I had to actually 3d print an adapter for it to fit the rack

[@salpanettieri3115]

Great review! Thank you very much. Would love to see more funtional/Rack combos reviewed. I am subscribed but haven’t seen Major Lutie reviewed.

[@1saacTR]

Bro, I'm really interested in that major lutie review!

[@BrandonClapp]

Great review, dude. I've been considering functional trainer power racks in this price range.

[@gregpeterburs4155]

I’ve got an Ethos power rack 1.0 , I’ve had it for 3 years and love it . 3” - 11ga , 1” safety bars with sleeves, spotter arms and j hooks . 3 position chin bar and large straight round cross brace fat grip chins . Large flat feet for great stability. Had to add all my cable pulleys but for the price I’m still way ahead. I’m adding 2 Rig Roller X assembly’s and the Crandall Fitness adjustable free motion lever arms

[@quincy189]

@5:50 how many pounds as on that barbell for those spotters to bend like that?

[@lg82]

Coop - Awesome review. Right now in the market for a power rack/fitness trainer like combo. Hoping you can review the SUPGYM PS1A vs the MAJOR LUTIE PLM03 vs the Marcy Pro Deluxe Smith Cage Home Gym System!! Thanks again for all these awesome reviews!

[@BRUTUSPLAC]

LOVE your reviews Coop 27 months now.

[@davidbird-tf7je]

That looks like a really nice power rack I wouldn't mind buying something like that

[@impaledface7694]

Seems like a great deal. Could be the fix for most home gym users. The guide rods, angled weight horns, and multi-grip bar is great. Personally I would get a nice used rack+cable home gym, but those are cheap near me and I have room. Most people don't have room, or good used markets nearby.

[@mybootscamewithoutstraps]

I own this thing now and it's fucking phenomenal. The only problem is their goddamn pulleys have black knobs around the sides that fall the fuck off during installation and they fall down the uprights, to be lost forever. It's super fucking sad they couldn't just glue those down.

[@RR-fb3xd]

Need a Major Lutie booty review. Ever review and video i have seen doesnt not show any weight on the ML racks. Im assuming it’s because they are shakey af but would like a real review with some actual weight on the rack

[@TheSailfish23]

Love the reviews in this price point... would love a review of the Bells of Steel Light Commercial rack. Been looking at it as the accessories for it seem better priced than say their Titan / Rep equivalent

[@margieruparel]

Hey Coop, Thanks for the review. I need to pull the trigger and waiting on your review for major lutie plm03.

[@edwardengle8442]

Thank you for your assessment on different racks in your opinion minus the weights what’s the best all around with a lot pull down in $1000 range

[@ScottJamar]

Love the review thanks Coop! Specifically how adaptable is the lat pull down option? I am concerned that adding both sides of the cables and having to sit on the floor will not be a practical option.

[@tomwozne]

Coop if love to know if you can customize these cheap racks do they have the hole spacing and rail size for other equipment to attach to?

[@Blood_Daze]

ER KANG Power Cage, 1500LBS Power Rack Cage with Cable Crossover System

[@jason3000tt]

Thanks for this review. this seams a good starter unit. I am a runner, any new options since this review?

[@AndrewFrancisFreeman]

I wish these racks had smaller spacing between holes. I have the 810xlt and can't quite get it right for benching.

[@ghibbore]

I would like to see Mikolo K3 as a comparison

[@LBJedi]

Looking forward to the round up of all the racks. We just bought our forever home. There’s a two car garage, but we only have one car. GUESS WHAT THAT OTHER SPACE IS GOR!!!😄

[@LeetGarra]

This channel is amazing and provides such useful info. Coop, what pants are those? They look extra comfy

[@AndrewFrancisFreeman]

I'd love to see a good price half rack. I am planning on finding one and putting my wall mounted cable tower behind it.

[@walkermorales337]

This looks almost the same as the major lutie plm03 (as in a lot of the parts look exactly the same) albeit with a few differences. The major lutie has adjustable dip bars, different spotters, and the functional trainer appears to have a bit more customization. The pull up bar doesn’t look like it has as many hand grips either, and the major lutie is also $150 more. Edit: major luttie rates their cables at 300lbs, I’d imagine these would have the same rating given that they seem to share a lot of parts.

[@Falcon408]

This specific rit fit unit is more compact, look at the back of the pulley system. However, Rit Fit also has one that is identical to the major lutie. Although i like this one for its similarities and compact frame.

[@unclosetedconservative]

Brand new to the idea of home gym. Since leaving the Army I've really missed access to all that gym equipment all the time. This vid was SUPER helpful. I might get this, but I am willing to drop $1000, so I'm also looking for what you recommended in the two separate parts (rack + functional trainer). If that video exists already please let me know!

[@chief5981]

Man.. I got chunky after service. I actually kinda miss morning pt. Need to get off my unmotivated bum

[@EvanMortonFilm]

Would love you to compare this to the REP PR 1100 with a lat pull down. It has a lot of add ons available, a full review on the PR 1100 would be great too!

[@andrsco]

I’d look at the hulk fit rack with cable system. I wish fitness reality has that setup.

[@Swidhelm]

I will say, my rack, which is a gear for fit 1100, which is almost the same as the REP pr-1100, has a lat pulldown addon, and extra plate storage upright addons that would keep the rack price around the price of that thing, but I think a design I'd prefer over this one. Because you still have usable rack space without the pulldown being in the way. But it does mean you need more space for it. I have my rack in a small 6x9 area, so I don't have room for those addons.

[@stevenhough7555]

Valor fitness has rack and functional trainer set up with a larger foot print. I’d like to see your thoughts on that.

I'm considering ordering a rack within the next few days, and saw this and the Major Lutie, and due to this review I really am considering this.. but I was curious if you have an idea on when your review of the Major Lutie rack would drop? Also, is it the oddball PLM04 with the rounded tubing, or the Major Lutie PLM03/PLM05 that's the conventional squared tubing? (Hoping for the PLM03 since it's also a functional trainer squat rack)

Can you review the Major Lutie PLM05? It seems to offer a lot of the same features for less than half the cost, with the biggest sacrifice being a lat pulldown in place of the cable crossover.

I hope you do the TDS power rack. The one I have is over ten years old, so I don't know if they are the same, but it is a lot more rugged than this thing. These safeties are a joke. The TDS has 1" solid steel rods for safeties. Would hold the 1,000 lbs. its rated for, for real.
