The Ares 2.0 looks so much better than what rogue released. Also, rogue is not known for having good cable attachments... not sure I would be first in line for something they 'unveiled' but wouldn't allow anyone to use it, adjust it, etc. looks like they are still months behind from a finished product. Will Rogue let anyone use their product at home gym con?

I think the “mistake” was intentional because pillar four wanted people to buy plates from all the affiliate links. after everyone called him out he then made his “i’m sorry” video WHERE HE STILL put in the affiliate link. Pillar 4 doesn’t want to give any attention to companies that don’t pay them.

The only thing I don’t like about about the ares 2.0 is those higher pulleys and the narrowness. The lower pulleys never bothered me. I use them for leg exercises and with d-handles they’re totally fine. Also you can use the front trollies to setup the perfect row height.

90% of my equipment is Rogue. But I’ve held off on getting a decent rack until Rep are available in my region. I could have bought an RM6 years ago, but even with their new functional trainer release, I’m still going to wait for Rep. The configurability is just leagues ahead of Rogue in my opinion.

I bought the Ares 1.0 about 5 months ago. I understand Rep needs to keep competing for sales and be innovative. I really like the higher low lat pulleys and can fit bench with incline inside rack, as can save space. Never thought to ask them if they had a new version to wait for. Im sure the salespeople probably didn't know at that time. Like your channel. It will probably evolve again to a 3.0. Sucks to know.

@NoFate247 I really like it. It has a lot to offer for working out. Many times, I try to do incline bench press inside the rack and forget it's not possible, so I have to move the bench to the outside. Lol. I don't like that I have to remove the bench for low row due to the room is short on space. I wish there was an attachment to raise the low pulleys up for keeping the bench inside the rack for low row, but i dont know if there is anything like that. Those are my disappointments, and the 2.0 would have been a better choice. Now I won't tell people I bought the Ares because I have the old version. Lol.

Timely video. I have a force usa G9 from 2020 but am looking to update/upgrade. Fell in love with the Ares two months ago and have been watching all content possible. The day I was about to pull the trigger I seen the Rep video announcement of V2. The v1 is at a 250 discount but I’d rather have the v2 naturally. However, it sucks from thinking I was two weeks away from having an Ares to being 4 months away 😢.

A conversion kit would be too expensive, I think the only compromise rep could do is sell the 2.0 without a weight stack at about 40% less so ares 1.0 owners could reuse their existing stack, although you’d probably make more money selling your 1.0 version second hand

I'm sorry you can't make it gymcom, but honestly, your reaction videos are awesome too. The Ares 2.0 does look better than the Ares 1.0 but I'm pretty happy with the current version. I don't think my gains will suffer by not having 2.0. That said I'll be totally jealous of all the 2.0 customers....On a different note, what do you think of Kabuki shutting down for 10 days? As a former Kabuki training client and owner of multiple Kabuki bars, I thought they were a decent company. From what I understand, their investors were not happy with their metrics and they cut staff significantly at the end of last year. So Kabuki will be at home gym con? I thought they were releasing a different Transformer Bar though I heard that bar was going to be a little more budget-friendly? Anyway the more players in the game the better. I like the model we're starting to see of smaller players partnering with big manufacturers....

I'll be curious if they show at HGC or it's an empty booth. As fans of the home gym multiverse, we want tons of competition. But obviously these companies need to pull a profit and with copying very easy in the industry it isn't always financially beneficial to design new stuff and try to sell it at a high price.

It's not all negative. He used to own his own channel but sold it to Pillar 4 media. So he's still the face but doesn't own it. That's allowed his production to go up and the quality of his videos to be high but many people feel like he sold out or unfairly pushes products that have high affiliate commissions. I don't think he's all good or all bad, I appreciate the good stuff he puts out and avoid the negative stuff that I find irritating.
