"ANCORE has 'disrupted' the fitness and strength and conditioning fields in the best possible way. This innovation saves money and space while delivering a high quality training effect"
"ANCORE is going to be a game changer. Imagine being able to inexpensively mount a 'box' to every power rack that creates an adjustable pulley system."
"You get all the benefits of a cable stack in a small and affordable package, making it a no brainer for rehab clinics, training rooms, and gyms."
"The ANCORE Trainer is by far the best training equipment that I have added to our MMA cardio regiment."
"I recommend the ANCORE system to all the teams I work with as a must-have travel training tool on the road and for individual athletes to have in their own home gyms. "
"In my opinion, ANCORE is a tool that strength coaches and anybody that likes to train should have."
"Think of a cable system that you can install anywhere and can be held in your hand!"
"The ANCORE Trainer is an outstanding addition to anyone's training arsenal"

The ANCORE Strap Mount is designed for use on nearly any squat rack but will also work well on various poles, beams, and fixtures. The optimal circumference of the mounting fixture is between 10 inches and 14 inches.We can customize the length of the ANCORE Strap Mount for you: Please reach out at Hello@ANCOREtraining.com with the subject line "Custom Length - Strap Mount," and we'll be happy to get you set up.
The ANCORE uses simulated resistance measured in a 1:1 ratio with an approximate range of 5 lbs to 65 lbs. For example, using six high resistance plates (~10 lbs each + 5lbs in the base) would provide a total resistance of 65 lbs.
Traditional cable machines are designed at 2:1 or 4:1 ratios using pulleys or levers to achieve a mechanical advantage. For example, using a 2:1 pulley cable machine, the 130 lbs plate is approximately equivalent to 65 lbs of force required. The ANCORE uses resistance measured in a 1:1 ratio, so the resistance on the plates is equal to what you'd experience during a workout.
Most customers say that the resistance is similar in feeling to a pneumatic system. This is because the resistance mechanism of the ANCORE is not dependent on gravity and allows for high-speed, ballistic movements as well as slower, more controlled movements.
The resistance is generated via a torque-loaded spring mechanism. The torque curve is quite flat in the middle cable length range, where most movements are done. There is a slight progression from the first foot of cable compared to when the cable is pulled out at 8 feet. There is always tension on the cable at any point, allowing for concentric, eccentric, and isometric movements. Additionally, the resistance is not inertial or flywheel-based.
The cable has a maximum length of 8 feet.
