CAM TO VTS WITH 1:1 RATIO USING SAME UPRIGHT
BEST FOR:
- Low-cost setups (requires only one pulley)
- Simple setup
- Compact footprint
- Users who find 1:2 feels too heavy for curls or other movements
- 1:1 ratio gives easier starting weight
- Must consider starting weight of VTS
- Limited ISOLATOR movement up/down
- Back upright setup gives more adjustability
- Not very strong users or those OK loading more plates
- More weight = more wear on VTS over time
- Users OK leaving ISOLATOR on or removing to use VTS
- Back upright allows VTS and ISOLATOR to stay separate
PARTS:
- ISOLATOR Cam
- ISOLATOR Cam Top Guide Pulley Bracket
- Single Side Pulley
- Round Long Cable Termination End
- Cable

ISO ARMS ON CAM 1:2 RATIO TO VTS ON SAME UPRIGHT
Watch Video
ISO ARMS ON CAM 1:2 RATIO TO VTS ON SAME UPRIGHT
BEST FOR:
- Compact setups where everything is on one upright
- Lower-cost
- Fairly simple setup
- Users who want to use ISO Arms with the VTS but don’t need maximum felt load on every movement
- People who still want to do a wide variety of lifts without going to the heaviest-feeling ratio options
NOTES / LIMITATIONS:
- Because it’s a 1:2 ratio, the VTS trolley travels twice as far, limiting certain setups
- Some higher setups are limited because the VTS is above the ISOLATOR
- Counterweight on ISO Arms may be required for heavy dips, lat pulls, etc.
- Moving sleeves further down increases felt load
- 1:1 ratio is too strong in this configuration
- Heavier loading increases wear and tear on components
- Great for general use across many lifts
- 1:2 / 1:3 combo setups are excellent for flexibility
- Very strong athletes may prefer the Crossbow Cam
