The RX3 Tornado Smith Machine Rack is the perfect all-in-one rack for a functional trainer cable machine, smith machine, and a half rack in one unit. It comes with our patent-pending Tornado Pivot Arms which offers the ability to target every muscle group more effectively by positioning the cable system anywhere. The Tornado Pivot Arms have 4-way adjustability so you can position them outwards for a better stretch during chest flys (cable crossover), inwards so the weight is directly beneath you for shoulder shrugs, or directly above you for lat pulldowns. Every exercise is now possible with our innovative cable system. We're also including a smith machine that further allows you to isolate targeted muscles while keeping safety and simplicity in mind.

Now featuring our updated Smith Machine with improved range of motion, this latest model delivers our most advanced design yet. At its lowest point, the Smith Machine sits only 6.8" higher than a loaded barbell, so you can perform deadlifts, Romanian deadlifts (RDLs), and other lifts with nearly the same depth and feel as free weights. Something many traditional smith machines can't match.

We've also raised the storage position of the smith bar to 6'6". This added height provides more overhead space, making it easier and more comfortable for taller users during training sessions.

The new removable safety stopper works like a J-cup: keep it on for extra safety during heavy lifts or remove it completely to unlock the full depth and freedom of movement when you want maximum control. Combined with our high-quality 3"x3" uprights, 11-gauge steel, and 1" holes with 2" spacing, plus the included RX3 J-Cups for barbell training, this rack delivers durability, versatility, and a premium lifting experience all in one.

TORNADO X KEY FEATURES

DUAL 2:1 & 1:1 WEIGHT RATIOS

Switch between 2:1 and 1:1 resistance in seconds to match the way you train. Use 2:1 for smoother movement, longer cable travel, and smaller weight increments, or switch to 1:1 to unlock the full weight stack for heavier strength-focused exercises.

300 LB RESISTANCE FROM A 200 LB STACK

Combine the 1:1 and 2:1 pull points to create a 1:1.5 cable ratio and generate up to 300 lb of effective resistance from a single 200 lb stack. Get more resistance for heavy rows, belt squats, presses, and other strength movements without adding more weight to your stack.

TRUE-CENTER LINE OF PULL

Tornado X positions the cable directly in line with the center of the upright, creating a balanced and symmetrical line of pull. This centered cable path provides a more natural feel during lat pulldowns, low rows, and other movements where proper alignment matters.

SEMI-DEDICATED LAT PULL & LOW ROW

Set up lat pulldowns and low rows directly from a single Tornado X Arm and weight stack. Just adjust the trolley height and position the arm toward the center, without connecting both sides or adding extra pulleys.

SELF-RIGHTING DESIGN

The Tornado X Arm automatically returns to its proper orientation when cable tension is released. This self-righting design helps maintain cable alignment, reduces unwanted twisting, and keeps the arm properly positioned as you move between exercises and angles.

IMPROVED CABLE TRACKING & SMOOTHNESS

An updated front-end pulley, swivel shackle, and ultra-flexible cable help keep the cable properly aligned as the Tornado X Arm changes position. The redesigned system reduces unnecessary cable twisting and friction for smoother, more consistent cable travel throughout your training.
