I love how honest you are with the reviews Coop. It’s one thing to say the handles suck just in the video, but you said it to their face. That’s the kind of reviews we need.

[TheCarterHomeGym]

Man, this really looks like a great option for people with small spaces looking for all-in-one versatility. I agree, REP really outdid themselves!

[dejavu]

You can bench with spotter arms outside the rack and also have a friend stand inside the rack. You can do the same for incline so you don’t have to worry about the bench hitting the weight stack. As for low row, adjust the footplate out and sit on the bottom of a decline bench so you’re not on the floor. Provides a much better experience.

[meisdetermined]

Just in awe. Truly impressed. It wasn’t that long ago Rep contacted Coop and said, “we want to compete with the big boys.” Ladies and gentlemen, the favored contender has entered the ring.

The Ares system is a big deal. I've been agonizing on whether to go with REP or Rogue for my rack upgrade for months, and this was the thing that tipped the scales in REP's favor. Ordered my PR 5000 this morning.

[mariofulgieri]

Absolutely would love a comparison video of Ares vs Athena/lat pull down combo. Either way, the constant innovation from Rep has made my rack buying decision an easy one. PR-5000 will be ordered soon.

[SaulFemm]

I would LOVE to see you review the 4 post configuration. Pretty sure that is what I'm going to go with myself.

[Lomez]

Rep is putting out better quality than rogue these days huh.

[bigk]

Why am I addicted to fitness review videos?

[Thunder]

It's incredible that this is where we are in the home gym sphere now. Very innovative stuff from REP.

[raullodos]

I'm a new subscriber and fan of this channel and I'm impressed with what I've seen so far. I love your knowledgeable, in depth, no Bull Shit, No Self Serving Sales pitch equipment reviews and I most definitely would love to see a comparables video on the Rep Ares.

[bobbyhunt]

Coop, U NAILED IT AGAIN
I Love the way U found out what U wanted to do and U became the Best at it.
Your reviews hit every detail of the product U are reviewing and man U are fun to watch.
U seem to be just like a lot of us guys who do not compete but just love lifting weights and U relate so well to your viewers. I'm really Glad we have U out there showing and teaching us about all the products. Thnkx Man

You can definitely move to benching on the front uprights if you need to, you have a potential 620 lb counter weight and a 900+lb rack, would be highly skeptical of it somehow tipping unless you're pushing massive weights.

And if you really want to be safe you could probably throw on the Front Foot extensions to feel extra safe.

[maxcadena]

I’m not gonna lie this is one of the best equipment review I’ve seen thus far and im totally sold! Please keep up with the videos! Love the input!

[SportDannyK]

Wow, thank you Coop, and especially thank you REP for this product. I´ve been waiting and excited for your review for a while. It´s truly an amazing product. Really looking forward to the day when REP going finally expand to the UK and I am will be able to build my entire REP Fitness PT studio/home gym and get to use this phenomenal product.

[zfortyounce]

Now this is one of the super expensive pieces you have reviewed that I could see saving up for. This is a pretty rad piece of equipment.

[RelentlessneFPS]

They are getting the orders out. My order time line for the Ares is: order date 8/3/22 and delivery date is 9/30/22. Really looking forward to using this. Great timing with this video, it makes me feel a bit better spending so much money on this and the PR-5000. Thanks Coop!

[seanhernandez]

Thanks for putting this out. I've been eyeing this for a bit, so a few weeks ago I started taking down my DIY pulley system from my rack every time I use it so my wife gets frustrated setting it back up when she goes out to the garage. It's a long game and soon I'll hit her with, "You know we could solve this issue with one of these ..." When it comes time I'm just gonna show her this video, so thanks!

[NoFate]

This thing def. adds a lot of versatility in a small amount of space. It'll be interesting to see how this compares to the Athena for people's use case.

[richardschank]

Comparing the Ares to Prime's Single Stack would be very valuable.
