The improved footplate design is angled at the top to provide support while sitting on a bench and adjusts for multiple starting points for better foot positioning. The footplate is also wider on the 2.0 for more comfort and versatility, with the cables in the middle of your feet rather than outside like the original.

Hot-rolled steel plates with a machined finish assure consistent and durable weights that the magnetized pin slides into smoothly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe built the Ares™ 2.0 attachment for functionality first. It utilizes a 2:1 cable ratio, which means 100lbs feels like 50lbs, ideal for functional training when you want a faster-traveling cable. Better functionality is also why we switched the resting position of the front trolleys; when not in use, you now store them at the bottom of the uprights, rather than the top on the original Ares™ attachment. This creates more usable space on the rack upright at the top, which is important for those that choose the 80\" upright height and want to press or squat outside of the rack. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThe Ares™ 2.0 comes with a lat pulldown bar; one clip to connect them to the stack cables; and four fully knurled D-handle attachments and two integrated drop-down 5lb add-on weights (that feel like 2.5lbs) for more weight jump options.
