Pro Tips for This Build
Order the rack first — everything else fits around it and lead times can be 2-4 weeks
A functional trainer replaces dozens of isolation machines for cable work
Install proper flooring before the rack goes in — it's nearly impossible to add later
Plan your layout on paper first: leave 3 feet of clearance around the rack for safety
