Does it include weight plates?

No. It is plate-loaded, so you supply your own plates for the Smith bar and pulleys.

What is the difference between the 1:1 and 2:1 pulley ratios?

At 1:1 the load matches the plates; at 2:1 the load is halved, which suits lighter cable work and faster reps.

How much space does it need?

It is a full rack footprint with a cable stack on the side, so plan for a garage or spare-room floor with clearance around the bar.

Can I do bench press and squats on it?

Yes. The J-hooks and spotter arms support barbell squats and bench press inside the rack, and the Smith bar covers guided versions.

What comes in the box?

Safety spotter arms, J-hooks, a rowing footplate, lat pulldown bar, dip bar with arm pads and single handles.

Is the Plus version worth choosing?

The Plus adds Jammer Arms and a leg press board, which widen the exercise range if you want pressing and leg work beyond the base stations.
