Singapore Home Gym Undergoes Renovation Part III: Building the Power Cage Stage 4

Building the Power Cage goes into stage 4 of its construction......Getting the Lats up and attached!

The lat attachment for the Power Cage is an optional choice. With the Power Cage alone, you can already do a full body workout. With the addition of the lat attachment, exercises such as the lats pull down, cable bicep curls and the triceps rope pull downs can be done.

The setting up of the Lats Attachment may seem a little complicated when it comes to setting up the cables, however by following the instructions in the manual given, things will be set up nicely.



The Pictures above shows the parts of the Lats Attachment. It consist of two vertical poles, two holders (One for top and one for bottom) to be attached to the Power Cage, Two cables and a weight plates holder.

Start by Attaching the two vertical poles to the bottom holder.


Next, bring the two poles to a vertical position and attach the bottom holder to the Power Cage. And insert in the weight plates holder into the two vertical poles.


Attach the top holder to the two vertical poles and attach the holder to the Power Cage.


Tighten the screws and bolts and you will notice that there is a feet holder for you to attach at the bottom of the Power Cage. This feet holder is for you to do sit-ups etc.


You are left with the cables to set up. It is very important to follow the step by step instructions in the manual when setting up the cables. This will ensure a smooth pulling of the cables when working out.




After the setting up of the cables, put ont he Lats pull down attachment and the Biceps curl attachment and there you go, you're done with the Lats Attachment.


There you go.....The complete Power Cage!


In the future posts, we will be looking at how to arrange the accessories of the Home gym  and what can be added to the Home Gym to make it an even better one.
