FAQ
What qualifies as specialty gym equipment, and when should I add it to my setup?
Specialty gear includes cable towers/crossovers, yokes, GHDs, gym flooring, and rack attachments that expand movement options and ergonomics once you have the basics. REP Fitness offers systems like Adonis™, Hyperion, Oxylus™, and REP ARES™ 2.0 to build out focused training stations.
How do I choose between plate-loaded and selectorized cable towers?
Plate-loaded towers use your Olympic plates and keep costs down, while selectorized stacks offer fast pin changes for drop sets or shared training. REP carries both so you can match budget and training style; see our guide to choosing a cable machine.
Do I need a full cable crossover, or will a single tower or rack-mounted system work?
Full crossovers enable true flyes and wide-stance moves but require more width; a single tower or rack-mounted attachment covers presses, rows, and pulldowns in less space. Choose based on room width and your most-used movements—REP offers compact towers, rack-integrated attachments, and dual‑tower setups.
What should I look for in a yoke or GHD for home use?
For yokes, prioritize stability, easy height adjustments, and the ability to double as a squat/pull-up station; for GHDs, look for frame rigidity, pad comfort, and a broad fit range. Also consider footprint and whether you have clear space to move or mount safely.
How should I plan gym flooring for this type of equipment?
Measure your space and decide if you’ll drop weights; thicker vulcanized rubber tiles or rolls protect subfloors and reduce noise, while foam tiles suit light or temporary setups. For pros/cons by thickness and install tips, see our guide to the best flooring for home or commercial gyms.
