It features dual 260lb weight stacks (upgradeable to 310lbs), allowing both unilateral and bilateral training—or even two athletes training at once. Key upgrades include a higher low row, improved footplate design, smoother trolleys, and a broader range of motion with swiveling pulleys for a more natural feel. The reoriented weight stacks and bench cutouts create more usable rack space, while the 2:1 cable ratio ensures smooth, fast cable travel. With added micro-weight options, premium attachments, and compatibility across multiple rack configurations, the Ares 2.0 delivers commercial-level performance in a space-saving, rack-mounted design.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eWhat's Included\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAres 2.0 Functional Trainer Attachment\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e93\" + 30\" 6-Post PR-5000 Power Rack (Metallic Black)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAres Weight Stack Upgrade\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact Logo Plate Crossmember 2.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMulti-Grip Pull-Up Bar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlip-Down Safeties\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlat J-Cups 2.0\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight Storage Horns\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMini Front-Foot Extensions\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpotter Arms\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePatent-Pending Design:\u003c\/strong\u003e The innovative cable routing allows for extended travel, ensuring smoother movement and a greater range of motion. The integrated foot plate enhances stability and power transfer, while centered lower and upper pulleys provide balanced resistance for optimal biomechanics. Lightweight yet strong trolleys feature a knurled handle and oversized pop-pin for easy one-handed adjustments while supporting heavy loads, with protective plastic lining to prevent upright damage. These designs deliver a versatile, controlled, and high-performance training experience for all strength levels.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePulleys and Cables:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Ares™ 2.0 attachment features aluminum pulleys with custom retainers for a smoother pull. All pulleys have a 180-degree swivel for versatility and the ability to work outside the rack, and the 2.0 cables have a thinner coating that creates a smoother feel.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual Weight Stacks:\u003c\/strong\u003e Dual selectorized weight stacks can be upgraded to 310lbs each (feels like 155lbs each) and allow for unilateral and bilateral training without compromising cable length like with a single weight stack. Another advantage over a single stack is that your pull feels even because both hands aren't fighting to move the same stack. Weight stacks are turned 90 degrees and sit farther set back so there's more space inside the rack for incline bench and other movements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLat and Seated Row Feature:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Ares™ 2.0 attachment features both an integrated lat pulldown, as well as a seated row. This slightly higher cable point is more comfortable and functional than a low row and allows you to sit on a bench or the floor; your choice. Use the lat and seated row cables for isolation exercises, as well as standard, straight-bar movements.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAttachments and Additions:\u003c\/strong\u003e The Ares™ 2.0 attachment comes with a lat pulldown bar; one clip to connect them to the stack cables; and four fully knurled D-handle attachments – and it’s compatible with a wide range of other cable attachments. It also comes with two, integrated 5lb add-on weights (that feel like 2.5lbs) for more weight jump options.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImproved Footplate:\u003c\/strong\u003e The new footplate design adjusts for multiple starting points; is much wider for more comfort and versatility; and is cut out on the sides so you can perfectly center your bench deeper in the rack for both incline and flat bench exercises.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility: \u003c\/strong\u003eMount the Ares™ 2.0 attachment to a ton of rack configurations: the PR-5000 6-post 16:16, 30:16, or 41:16; and the PR-5000 4-post 16.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWidth: 57.6\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePulley Ratio: 2:1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight Stack: 260lbs per side\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUpgradeable to 310lbs per side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTrolleys Weight Capacity: 450lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCables Weight Capacity: 450lbs\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight Plates Tolerance: 3%\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCable Travel: 80\": 71.3\" \u0026amp; 93\": 94.9\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTotal Height: 80\": 82.1\" \u0026amp; 93\": 93.9\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMax Added Width: 5.2\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdded Depth: 6\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eWarranty\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLifetime Structural Warranty\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePop-pins, pulleys, bearings, and cables: 1 year\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"REP Fitness","offers":[{"title":"6-Post \/ 93\" + 30\" \/ Metallic Black","offer_id":41193174695985,"sku":"VAU85","price":5590.5,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0264\/7028\/5361\/files\/ares-thumbnail.png?v=1782397457","url":"https:\/\/www.northernfitness.ca\/fr\/products\/demo-ares-2-0-functional-trainer","provider":"Northern Fitness","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
