Have you looked at the top of the machine? The one in the picture is similar to one at my gym, and there are some small round weights that you can lower to add 5 or 10 lbs to the stack. they are a little hard to see, but if you lower them down they sit right on top of the weight plate.
I discovered these by accident. Couldn't figure out why my usual weight felt so much tougher than usual. LOL
OK, the picture isn't showing up for me. Try this link. http://bgifitnesscommercial.com/itemdetails.cfm?id=579
It's the 3rd machine on the page. HTH! |
Yeah; I know about those weights, my old gym had them. My new one doesn't. It might be an older machine or something, because the center poles don't have the sliding vertical attachment adjuster either, so you can't move the pulley to the middle, there's only a fixed one at top and bottom. I've thought about trying to jerry rig a 5 pounder somehow for the rows, but can't figure out how to do it. It's a pain not having those nice slider weights.
