Very useful pad. I use it for chest-supported rows and cable rows, single arm preacher curls, leg extensions, standing leg curls, etc. Love that it doesn't take up space - I store it on my stabilizer bar on my REP PR-4000 to get it out of the way.

Love this thing. Very versatile. Not only you can use it for hamstring exercises but I've used it for leg extensions with my Darko Thresher pad + safety spotter. Very nice alternative to those who cannot fit a leg curl/extension machine in their gyms. This strap takes up very little space and that's great for my little space!

Bought these anchors after I got the Rogue safety squat bar. I was tired of moving the barbell and the safety squat bar in and out of my rack. These anchors make everything SO much easier switch the bars. Darko Lifting is a GREAT company. I'm on board to fully support small businesses like Darko Lifting.

I preordered the Ibex x2 + lat arm back in August 2025. I was patient and it was totally worth the wait! Massive upgrade from cheap functional trainer I bought on Amazon over a year ago. The pulleys + bearings are silky smooth. I almost bought the Ares add-on but I wanted 1:1 ratio. The only 1:1 options were to add Dialed Motion Ibex or buy a brand new Dane 2.0 rack (which wouldn't fit in my low ceiling basement). The trolley system is very innovative yet simple, very smooth and love the wheels so it doesn't wear down the paint on my rack. The packaging was very impressive with the cardboard that perfectly fit the hardware. Loved that they were mostly recyclable (very eco-friendly household). As I was assembling this, it took me >2 hours because: My PR-4000 upper back crossmember would not attach the pulley mount because the upper hole could not screw in a bolt to hold the mount. Luckily I had an extra pull-up bar to replace it and it works well. I had to watch videos on how to assemble it. After I finished one side, the other size was a breeze. I worked a 12-hour shift before, lol so my mind wasn't fully intact. My wife gave me a beer on an empty stomach so that also did not help. Also, I noticed how much engineering and detail went into this product. I was simply amazed on how well thought everything was. For example, adjusting the trolley with washers so it can fit your rack so it doesn't have a lot of give. My mind was blown. Overall, I am SO happy with this purchase. The quality is top notch. James and Leland were prompt to answer questions about my order via Instagram. Now, I am waiting for the Roller Footplate to arrive!

I got these secondhand with my PR-4000 rack and I thought it'd be cool to use these. I used them for awhile to find out they are very cumbersome to set up for a 4-5 set workout. If you wanted to change the height and the placement of the arms themselves, it took >5 minutes to set up. You are literally sweating trying to position them JUST right for your exercise. I mainly used them for chest press, shoulder press, chest supported rows, and calf raises (with pull-up bar attached). I tried to do leg press but it wasn't the same. Then I tried to figure out how I can use these arms with the Dialed Motion Ibex functional trainer but I decided to take these down because of how much of a pain it was. Also the resistance curve was okay depending on the exercise.
