Pair of Athéna Adjustable Pulleys | Plate Loaded + Adjustable Pull-up Bar

Key features of the Adjustable Pulley Pair + Pull-up Bar bundle

• Aluminium bearings, far smoother than nylon bearings.
• Compatible with rack accessories: works with the Athéna range accessories (60 mm x 60 mm)
• Combining two pulleys: two pulleys can be combined to create a multifunction rack, linked by a pull-up bar. You can also add J-cups and safeties for even more options.
• 33 height settings: adjust the pulley height easily to target different muscle groups and tailor your exercises.
• Plate-loading system: enjoy the precision of loading with Olympic plates, while keeping costs down.

Versatility and compatible accessories

• Need more options? The UF adjustable pulley is compatible with 60 x 60 mm rack accessories. Perfect for varying your exercises, use it with attachments:
  • Bilateral cable flyes - Dual cable crossover and pull-up support high pulley (available in February)
  • Multi Rowing Plate
  • Leg extension / leg curl
  • Dips
  • Leg roller
  • Landmine
• Two pulleys can be combined to turn them into a multifunction rack / dual cable crossover by linking them with a pull-up bar (you can also add J-cups and safeties to perform compound exercises such as the bench press)

Adjustable pull ratio:

• 2:1 or 1:1 ratio: adapt the resistance to your needs with two pull ratio options. The default 2:1 ratio is perfect for isolation and explosive exercises, while the 1:1 ratio (obtained using our 2-in-1 adapter) lets you load heavy (100 kg loaded equals 100 kg of tension).

Because of its small footprint and its height, the UF adjustable pulley must be stabilised to ensure user safety, either by firmly anchoring it to the floor, the wall or a rack, or by loading its rear upright with plates using the Athena Olympic plate storage or the Athena multi-purpose storage holder. Mounting hardware not included.

No-drill alternative. If they cannot be anchored to the wall or floor, you can stabilise each pulley by loading its rear upright with plates. Rear uprights are not included, they are available separately as the Athena optional upright (one per pulley). To do so, fit the Athena Olympic plate storage or the Athena multi-purpose storage holder on the rear upright, then load your plates onto it. This ballast limits the risk of the pulleys tipping over. Spread the load evenly and place the heaviest plates at the bottom.

Frequently asked questions

What does the pair of UF adjustable pulleys and pull-up bar pack include?

Two Athéna adjustable plate-loaded pulleys and the adjustable pull-up bar that links them to form a functional trainer, usable for pull-ups, facing cable flyes or T-bar rows.

What are the specifications of each pulley?

60 x 60 mm tubes with 1.6 cm holes in 2 mm steel, 76 cm long, 76 cm wide, 206 cm high, 42 kg, 33 height settings, aluminium pulleys, maximum cable capacity of 130 kg.

Which height should be chosen?

206 cm for a standard ceiling or 228 cm for a garage, a basement or professional premises. The height stated is that of the column; allow around 10 cm of clearance above for assembly.

What is the 2:1 or 1:1 pull ratio?

The default 2:1 ratio suits isolation and explosive exercises. The 1:1 ratio, obtained with the 2-in-1 adapter, allows heavy loading: 100 kg loaded corresponds to 100 kg of tension.

Do the pulleys have to be fixed?

No, it is not mandatory. You can anchor them to the floor, a wall or a rack. Without anchoring, load the rear upright of each pulley (available as the Athena optional upright, one per pulley) with plates, using the Athena Olympic plate storage or the Athena multi-purpose storage holder, to limit the risk of tipping.
