Orders are placed. Got 3 pieces for now.

@Send0 went with this over the leverage squat because not sure if the shoulder in a sling will work and the height to load the plate with one hand.

only got one cable tower, for now, to get started because I wanted that bar. I'll add the other cable tower in the spring once the sling comes off.

getting that bar was the only way to stop being obsessed with the deltoid and shoulder press machine.

Solid new pieces. You will have fun with all of them.

Congrats on the 405 x 20 and the 560 squats. I don't want to know what my legs would feel like after 405 x 20.

Thank you.

Can't wait to try 560 again with the safties a little higher and go a bit deeper. I also was shuffling my feet, just take my two steps out the way I'm supposed to. I was nervous.

thanks again I never would have gotten a cable machine.

I'll PM you the links to the mods for that tower that I mentioned in the video. I think it would even be easy to built a belt squat platform to work with it.

I think everyone should have some cable exercises in their programming. The resistance is so much different than machine or free weights.

The double cables are sweet!!!

Also I recommend coating all the moving parts in 3-in-1 oil. It will feel so much smoother.

I used what is shown in the link below. I've actually used the exact silicone based lubricate Skullcrusher linked in his post, but only on my treadmill.

Silicone based lubricant makes sense when there is a good amount of heat; as it doesn't break down as much, but it's fairly viscous compared to other light oils. Originally I tried the silicone oil, because I had it laying around... but I found it made the cable system feel like it was, for lack of a better word, "sticking" more than it should as the cable ran across the pulleys. I switched to 3-in-1 oil and it felt so much better. Lighter lubricating oils are better for cable systems IMO.

Also don't use any penetrating oils; like WD-40, PB blaster, etc. These are meant for water displacement, soil removal, and rust/corrosion removal. They have some lubricant properties, but that is not the same as being a good lubricating oil. They will also evaporate over time, which is no bueno.
