I stuck my nose in the window at elite performance this afternoon and saw one of these contraptions. I'm not sure what it's for but it looks evil.

Physique has one in his club. it looks like a lower back killer to me but the adverts claim it's not.

I just googled it because i had no idea what it was. It looks awesome! I'd love to see that at our gym.

thanks for that idea. as we are running a contest right now, as to how many feet you can climb in 5 minutes. $5 entry, girls against the girls and guys against the guys. winner take all

we had a 100 foot contest! 31 seconds!! lol fireman beat me with 27 seconds!... he won tickets to Billy Talent, but couldn't go, so I got them as the runner up!
5 minutes... should get over 600 feet!
I think 3:57 is my 500 foot time... guys have it a little beasier to reach a high speed because of the added weight they have to push the rungs down (not making excuses...

physique... if a girl is getting causht up at the top before hitting her max speed, loop the rope around the belt a few times so you can get more "pull" out of the machine.
