Toorx Professional AVANT FWX-6700 Front Lat Pulldown at a glance

• Diverging pulling movement: the handles move apart as you pull, so you work your back muscles in a controlled and targeted way.
• Independent lever arms: both sides move separately, so your stronger side cannot take over the work.
• Plate loaded up to 300 kg: you load the lever with weight plates you buy yourself and increase the load step by step.
• Seat height in 13 positions: you match the movement to your own body height.
• Firm pads: high-density foam with PU upholstery and a fully padded back pad for a stable posture.
• Heavy steel frame: rectangular steel tubes of 50 x 80 mm with a 3 mm wall thickness with a double, scratch-resistant powder coating.

Front lat pulldown with diverging lever

On the FWX-6700 you sit under the handles and pull them down towards your shoulders. The lever mechanism guides them along a diverging path, with the handles moving apart as you pull. This keeps the movement controlled and lets your back muscles do the work. Because both arms move independently, you pull equally hard on the left and right and see straight away when one side lags behind.

Comfort and adjustment

The seat height of the FWX-6700 adjusts in 13 positions, so both shorter and taller users have the handles at the right height. The pads are made of high-density foam with PU upholstery, with a fully padded back pad. This keeps you stable and focused on the muscles you are training, even during the last heavy reps of a set.

Construction and load capacity

The frame is built from heavy rectangular steel tubes of 50 x 80 mm with a 3 mm wall thickness. The tubes are sandblasted and phosphated and then finished with a double, scratch-resistant powder coating that stands up to intensive use. Power Grade bearings ensure a smooth and precise movement, even with a heavily loaded lever. The maximum load is 300 kg and the machine is suitable for users up to 150 kg. The FWX-6700 meets EN20957-1 and EN957-2 class S and is therefore built for intensive, professional use.

Plate loaded: weight plates and space

As a plate loaded machine, the FWX-6700 works with weight plates you buy yourself; weights are not included. This lets you decide in which steps you increase the load. The machine measures 164 x 123 x 207 cm (l x w x h). Allow some free space around it to load plates and to get in and out easily. It is a machine for a permanent spot in a gym, PT studio or home gym.

Good to know

The FWX-6700 is a specialist machine for the lat pulldown. If you want to train your whole body with one machine, a home gym station makes more sense. With a height of 207 cm, the machine also needs enough ceiling height, so measure your space carefully beforehand.

Frequently asked questions about Toorx Professional AVANT FWX-6700 Front Lat Pulldown

What do you train with a lat pulldown machine?

A lat pulldown machine mainly trains your lats, the broad muscles of your back. You sit under the handles and pull them down towards your shoulders. On the FWX-6700 the handles follow a diverging path via a lever mechanism. The exercise is a good foundation if you cannot yet do bodyweight pull-ups, and heavy enough for experienced athletes at the same time.

What is the difference between the FWX-6700 and the FWX-6650?

The main difference is the pulling movement. On the FWX-6700 the handles move apart (diverging), on the FWX-6650 they move towards each other (converging). At 164 x 123 x 207 cm, the FWX-6700 is shorter but slightly taller than the FWX-6650. Both machines have independent lever arms and a maximum load of 300 kg.

Are weight plates included with the FWX-6700?

No, the FWX-6700 is supplied without weights. It is a plate loaded machine: you load the lever with weight plates you buy yourself. This lets you match the load exactly to your own level and increase it gradually. The maximum load of the machine is 300 kg.

How much space do you need for the FWX-6700?

The machine measures 164 x 123 x 207 cm (length x width x height). Leave some free space around it to load weight plates and to get in and out safely. Place the machine on a level, solid floor. As it does not fold, it needs a permanent spot in your training area.

Is the FWX-6700 suitable for home use?

Yes, if you have a home gym with enough space. The machine is built to EN957-2 class S for intensive professional use, so at home you have plenty in reserve. Do take the size into account, as well as the weight plates you need with it. It is especially interesting if you are expanding your home gym with dedicated, targeted strength machines.
