How to Turn Your Cable Towers Into a Functional Trainer

How to Turn Your Cable Towers Into a Functional Trainer

Setting up a home gym can feel overwhelming, especially when space and budget are limited. That’s why choosing equipment that serves more than one purpose is a smart move.

The Cable Tower to Functional Trainer Conversion Kit is designed to help you do exactly that—turn your cable towers into a functional trainer and squat rack combo.

What Is the Conversion Kit For?

The Cable Tower to Functional Trainer Conversion Kit is made to upgrade existing cable towers so they can function as both a cable machine and a squat rack. Here are a few reasons why this upgrade makes sense:

Supports Heavier Weight

Many traditional functional trainers don’t offer enough weight for people who lift heavier. This kit allows you to use a dual weight stacks, giving you more room to grow stronger. This conversion kit is also available for plate-loaded Cable Towers.

Compact Design

The design takes up very little space, which makes it great for home gyms. You don’t need a large room to make it work.

Makes Use of What You Already Own

If you already have Bells of Steel Cable Towers, this kit helps you get more use out of them without having to buy a brand-new machine.

Unlocks Barbell Exercises

Make the most of your space by combining your cable training and barbell training in one, space-savvy footprint. Who says you can't have it all? Not us. Maybe your spouse...

What’s Included in the Kit

Here are the key features that come with the conversion kit:

Shorter Feet

The shorter feet make the whole setup more compact and easier to fit in smaller gym spaces.

Swivel Shackles for More Versatility
