Strength Training with the Inspire FT2 Functional Trainer
The Inspire FT2 is designed for home gym users who want the flexibility of a cable machine alongside the guided movement of a Smith machine.
Unlike conventional plate-loaded Smith machines, the FT2 connects its Smith bar directly to the selectorised weight stacks. This makes resistance adjustments straightforward while reducing the need for separate weight plates.
Its eight cable pull points also allow a wide range of functional and isolation exercises, making the FT2 a practical option for strength training in a dedicated home gym.
Key Features & Benefits
Integrated Smith Machine Without Weight Plates
The FT2 features a linear-bearing Smith machine connected to its dual weight stacks. Simply select your resistance using the weight pins and use the guided bar for exercises such as bench presses, shoulder presses, squats and calf raises.
The Smith bar also features a rotating locking mechanism that allows you to secure it at different positions.
This integrated design is particularly useful if you want Smith machine training without regularly loading and unloading weight plates.
Eight Cable Pull Points for Full-Body Training
The Inspire FT2 features eight cable pull points, including dual wide adjustable pulleys, upper centre pulleys and four lower centre pulleys.
The wide pulleys offer 32 height adjustments, allowing you to position the cables for different exercises and movement patterns.
Use the cable system for chest flyes, lateral raises, tricep pushdowns, bicep curls, lat pulldowns, seated rows and glute kickbacks.
Adjustable Resistance with Weight Multiplier
The FT2 uses dual selectorised weight stacks, allowing you to adjust resistance by moving the weight pins.
For heavier Smith machine exercises, the integrated weight multiplier is designed to double the available resistance, allowing you to increase the load without requiring traditional weight plates.
This gives you flexibility to move between lighter cable exercises and more demanding strength movements.
Integrated Pull-Up Bar and Compact Design
The built-in pull-up bar is height-adjustable to accommodate different ceiling clearances and supports pull-ups and chin-ups, adding bodyweight training to your routine.
The FT2 also combines multiple training functions within a single station, helping you make more efficient use of your home gym space.
Before purchasing, check the machine's full assembled dimensions, ceiling clearance and the additional space required for exercises or an optional bench.

Who Is the Inspire FT2 Best Suited For?
The Inspire FT2 is worth considering if you're setting up a dedicated home gym and want both cable training and guided Smith machine exercises in one system.
It suits users who prefer convenient resistance adjustments, want to train multiple muscle groups and have sufficient room for a substantial strength-training station.
