For most users, this isn’t an issue but we do prefer shields around the weight stacks on functional trainers. You’ll also notice that the weights are left wide open. With the added weight stacks, your FTX can be among the heavier units that are currently available on the mark, at least when it comes to budget-friendly functional trainers.

With that being said, you can spend around $200 more and 50 more pounds to each weight stack for a total weight per stack of 215 pounds. If like me, you are a powerlifter, you’ll find yourself quickly maxing out this unit. The weights feature a 2:1 ratio which means the most weight you’ll pull off each stack is 82.5 pounds. The Inspire Fitness FTX comes standard with just 165 pounds per weight stack.

To be honest, the 19 positions on my Titan Fitness functional trainer are always more than enough and they look a lot nicer. While this functional trainer includes a ton of pulley positions, it lacks the commercial-grade laser cut-outs we prefer. With thirty swivel pulley positions, you’ll also find that your movements are not prohibited in any direction, allowing for thousands of exercises to be performed. Zero noise, zero clunkiness, and zero skipping on the cables. As one verified Amazon user wrote” “I used this machine immediately and the first thing I noticed was how smooth it was. The FTX we’re happy to report offers incredibly smooth operation even when maxing out the unit’s weight stack. If the cables have too much slack, you’ll feel it when lifting and dropping your weights back down. If there’s drag your workouts won’t be as fluid as they should be.

Plus, the trainer looks great thanks to an electrostatic powder coat that looks surprisingly good. You won’t find a better warranty on the market. If you’re overly worried about the steel used, keep in mind that the Inspire Fitness FTX functional trainer comes with a residential-use lifetime warranty for its frame and parts. Regardless, the unit is solidly built and reviews have shown the longevity of the product. We searched high and low and several reviews claimed 12-gauge steel was used while many product sellers for the FTX simply said it was a rounded steel design. The actual frame is constructed from heavy-duty steel. That added height is a great addition for pull-ups and chin-ups. While it’s less wide and less deep than many trainers, it’s still 85-inches tall, making it on the bigger side of the height aspect. The unit is also just 40-inches deep, allowing for less space to be taken up in your home gym. The unit measures just 54-inches wide, that’s about 10-inches less than many other functional trainers on the market. Let’s start with the most obvious aspect of the frame.
