As the weight being pulled starts to exceed 50-75% of our body weight, it becomes harder and harder to keep your butt glued to the seat. Unfortunately, without the leg braces of a lat machine (below), what we can pull down with any semblance of good form is limited. The Spud Inc Pulley system alone reintroduced access to a lot of those pulling movements.
Lat pulldowns can absolutely help develop the strength to allow for pulls and chins. Of course another completely valid reason for wanting a lat tower is if you lack the strength to do a pull-up, or if you still have excess weight that makes doing true pull-ups difficult. I just happened to miss the lat machine from my commercial gym days and figured that I wasn’t the only one who did. So why do you need this rack conversion? You don’t! Your program probably doesn’t call for lat pulldowns or cable rows, and unless you’re a bodybuilder it’s likely that no program ever will. Many of you might even to be able to set this up without spending a penny. This DIY set-up is much cheaper than owning an actual cable machine or lat tower, and it requires no floor space commitment when not in use. This conversion is very simple to set up, yet it gives you access to heavy lat pulldowns and cable rows just to name a couple.
