Product Summary
Torque’s Relentless Rope Trainer is a relatively small product that can be used as an add-on to your rig or rack or you can hang it as a wall mount, which makes it a quick addition to any home gym. The Relentless Rope works in an infinity loop using magnetic force that also enables bi-directional movements. With four different resistance settings, this equipment is perfect for any fitness level. Faster pulling creates a more difficult resistance.
The rope itself is sleek and three-stranded. The product is topped with a pivoting head that cuts down to maintain consistency while pulling. It uses the same resistance as the Torque TANK, so you know it’s the real deal. As an attachment, the Relentless rope trainer is compatible with Torque’s X-RACK, X-SIEGE, X-LAB, X-CREATE, X-CAGE, and X-GYM, and some more uprights.
While pricey, the reviews come in high. One of the few negative reviews states that over time, people want to know how to replace the rope, however Torque claims that they have tested the rope for over 600,000 pulls at full resistance on several machines, and their testing is ongoing until they experience failure.
