Nice vid. There's a video out there of someone using an XLS's higher weight bar to do a bench press motion and it always made me wish that they'd work on an attachment like that for the Fit models.

I have seen that and have tried it without the pulley and I still feel like it's weird or just a little light. But I didn't use bands with that one.

Can put a couple cylinder blocks if you don't have bands.

I got to try this...I love your out of the box thinking. I did some out of the box thinking today while working shoulders on the TG. I hooked both cables together without the handles and added 1 hook and one of those tricep ropes to do face pulls...worked great!

I love those wide grips on the ends of my EZ curl bar for rows especially. Love using my xls at level 6 with the mac blocks i bought from you at highest position. I am so glad i bought the Grips & Blocks. It is like rowing a boat through tough waters. LOL! Thanks for showing more exercises on the other side of the tower. I am always looking for new ways of doing things. I still say the sliding bench has the most possibilities of all other types of training. But that's just my opinion.

Great tips Mike for the Total Gym. Are you using weight bar sleeves on the weight bar on the total gym so the Olympic plates fit correctly? Mike , you put those bands on both sides of the Total Gym ? Am I Correct ?

Thank you. No, I"m not using the collars on the bar. I rarely do, I don't find them that necessary. Many times I only have one band on, but on this you may have to keep two on for this one. As always.....at your own risk, b/c I don't think they are designed for this.

Thanks Mike that’s interesting. I tried something similar quite a while back, but had the cables coming up from under my arms. I never thought to have them coming over. I may have to get a longer bar because I just have that ez flex curl bar. I’ll let you know how it goes. Honestly though, I got a dog recently so haven’t had much time for the total gym taking her out for a run every day. Got to manage my time better.

Can overhead press be done this way? I'm thinking set at floor level w/ bands.
@jimperry4420

Also try standing on a crate or box and doing upright rows, side laterals, overhead press and curls.

Yes, great points. I used to use my cinderblocks for most of that stuff when I used to workout outside.
