The RX3 Tornado 6-Post Smith Machine Rack is the perfect all-in-one Rack including our patent-pending Tornado Pivot
Arms Functional Trainer, a Built-In Smith Machine, a Fully-enclosed rack with safety spotters, and a half rack in
one unit. It comes with our patent-pending Tornado Pivot Arms which offers the ability to more effectively target
every muscle group. The Tornado Pivot Arms have 4-way adjsutability so you can position them outwards for a better
stretch during chest flys, inwards towards the middle so the weight is directly beneath you for shoulder shrugs, or
directly above you for lat pulldowns. We're also including a fully enclosed power cage that lets you lift more
safely and securely with the use of our RX3 flip down safeties, as well as the RX3 Smith Machine for those that want
to lift safetly alone or isolate specific muscle groups. 2 Included RX3 J-Cups allows the front uprights to be used
as a half rack, or middle uprights to be used as an enclosed power cage. A 6-post configuation also provides 2 extra
uprights along with 5 extra crossbars for more places to store attachments.
RX3 SERIES DESIGN ETHOS
HEAVY DUTY STEEL WITH MODULAR DESIGN
Lift confidently and safely from 3" x 3" 11-gauge steel with 1400+ LB weight capacity. Our fully modular
design features offset, 1" holes with 2" spacing on all 4 sides
DURABLE COATINGS AND HARDWARE
Our 1" hardware is coated with black e-coat which is more resistant to corrosion, more durable, and looks
very sleek because who doesn't love black hardware?
All attachments and hardware utilize 1" pins at 2" spacing to create a fully modular and extremely
versatile rack.
EFFICIENT ACCESSORY MOUNTING
Laser-cut numbering for each of our offset 1" holes with 2" spacing on uprights, cross bars, and
accessories such as spotter arms, provides convenience.
Attachment Design
All RX3 attachments are made with a rounded chrome pin making insertion into the uprights easy and
frictionless. The rounded chrome pin as well as the uprights will maintain their new appearance, even
after years of repeatedly inserting and removing attachments. Other companies use a powder-coated pin
that scratches and chips away on both the pin itself as well as the coating on the upright. Further, the
inside of all RX3 attachments are lined with protective padding made from durable materials to prevent
metal-to-metal contact.
HIGH-QUALITY FINISHES & DETAILS
Chrome uprights where trolleys are used means less wear and scratches to your upright as you adjust the
position of the trolley up and down. Our plate sleeves are also chrome with a rubber stopper which
eliminates the potential of scratches and chips seen on cheaper, powder-coated plate sleeves. RX3
Sandwich J-Cups feature stainless steel logo plates with an oversized racking area, making it easier for
lifters to re-rack their barbell into the intended racking area. All components and attachments were
designed in more detail.
Exceptional Construction
Logos are bolted on with stainless steel nameplates on 95% of attachments, while a few are laser-cut. No
stickers are used in any of our RX3 designs. Take a look at our Stainless Steel Logo Plate — we've gone
the extra mile by laser-cutting triangular designs into the nameplate, further enhancing its standout
appearance that is representative of the pinnacle of quality seen on the RX3 series..
In-House Precision Manufacturing
We've upgraded our manufacturing and the first thing we wanted to offer is the RX3 line. 6-Axis Laser
cutting, CNC Lathe, robotic welding, friction welding, hydraulic servo bending, shot blasting, and
powder coating all in the same facility for a consistent and high-quality product. We've even brought in
a hardware packing machine to blister pack all hardware in-house.
Continuing Innovation
We didn't stop at designing just high quality standard attachments like j-cups and spotter arms; our
cable trolley systems are the best in the market. Our RX3 3000 Cable Tower series features dual pulleys
on a single column to allow 2:1 or 1:1 weight ratios and our patent-pending Tornado Pivot Arms allow
even more functional training capabilities in one unit. Both cable machines also include 2x black,
aluminum anodized, knurled handles that are the best standard handles we've seen in the industry. Our
product development team meets biweekly to design innovative attachments and solutions for our RX3
series. Stay tuned for more innovative, multifunctional, and high-quality attachments for the RX3
series!
FAQs
Who is this unit for?
The RX3 Tornado 6-Post Rack is for those that want an all-in-one unit that combines fully enclosed power rack,
Smith Machine, Tornado pivot arms functional trainer, and half rack into one space-saving unit. The additional 2
uprights and 5 crossbars provides more storage space for accessories and attachments. The RX3 Tornado Pivot Arms
offer greater versatility and more effect muscle targeting since you can position the handles exactly where you
need them. Position outwards at up to 81" apart for greater stretch for chest flys, or angle them inwards at
shoulder width for deadlifts and shrugs with the weight directly beneath you. Exercises and effectiveness
previously impossible with fixed trolleys are now accesible with our Tornado Pivot Arms
What is the benefit of Tornado Pivot Arms over other designs?
You can position them anywhere. Directly above you for lat pulls, directly below you for deadlift, outwards for
greater stretch during chest flys, or close together to join them in order to utilize both 200LB weight stacks.
The position of the Tornado Pivot Arms allows you to more effectively train your targeted muscle group and you
are no longer limited by a fixed trolley on a vertical upright.
What is the benefit of a smith machine?
The RX3 Smith Machine allows you to prioritize safety, simplicity, gradual strength progression, and better
isolation of targeted muscles compared to free weights. The predictability of the bar's path makes it an
excellent tool for breaking down and totally fatiguing muscles from one angle, thus tapping into the same set of
motor units on every rep without fail. Without needing to engage multiple muscle groups to maintain balance and
posture like with freeweights, you can push more weight while focused on growing a specific targeted muscle.

This unit is 3"x3" with 1" holes and 2" spacing, so there's are a wide variety of attachments from us and others
