The New Alfa 3x3 Functional Trainer: What's Changed?
17 Sep 2026
The BRUTEforce ALFA 3x3 Functional Trainer has always been known as one of the most complete all-in-one home gym systems. The latest version takes that concept even further with a redesigned cable system, a converging Smith machine, more training positions, higher weight capacity, and better compatibility with optional attachments.
Instead of adding features just for the sake of it, BRUTEforce focused on making everyday training smoother and giving users more exercise options without increasing the footprint dramatically.
If you're comparing the new ALFA with the previous generation, here's everything that's changed and why it matters.
Built Around a Commercial 3x3 Rack
The foundation of the new ALFA 3x3 remains its heavy-duty 3" x 3" uprights and crossmembers. This commercial-style frame provides excellent stability for strength training and supports a wide range of exercises using the rack, cable system, and Smith machine.
The robust construction also creates a solid platform for optional attachments, allowing the machine to grow with your training needs.
1" Hole Pattern with Laser-Cut Numbering
The rack features a 1-inch hole pattern with 2-inch spacing, making attachment positioning quick and consistent.
Laser-cut numbering on the front uprights allows users to return cable trolleys, J-hooks, or spotter arms to the same position every workout. This is especially useful when multiple users share the same machine or when repeating a structured training program.
35 Adjustment Points for Greater Versatility
The new ALFA includes 35 adjustment points, giving users greater flexibility when setting up different exercises.
These adjustment points accommodate accessories such as:
- Cable trolleys
- J-hooks
- Spotter arms
For example, users can quickly change cable heights between chest flys, shoulder raises, and tricep pushdowns without complicated adjustments.
Integrated Multi-Grip Pull-Up Bar
Positioned at the top of the frame is a knurled multi-grip pull-up bar featuring three different grip positions.
The multiple grip options allow users to perform different pull-up and chin-up variations while the knurled finish provides a secure grip during training.
Dimensions
The ALFA 3x3 measures:
- Width: 2,600 mm
- Height: 2,235 mm
- Depth: 2,600 mm
Its design combines multiple strength training stations within a single footprint.
Same Game Changing Converging Smith Machine
One of the biggest feature is the converging Smith machine from last model. Unlike traditional fixed-path Smith machines, the new design offers six different training angles. Users can simply pull and adjust the mechanism to select the desired movement path.
This provides greater exercise variety while allowing the Smith machine to adapt to different pressing and lower-body movements.
Commercial Linear Bearing System
The Smith machine operates using dual guide rods paired with premium commercial linear bearings. This combination creates smooth, controlled movement throughout the lift with minimal friction, making both lighter and heavier training feel consistent.
Built-In Safety Features
Safety remains an important part of the ALFA design.The Smith machine includes quick-adjustable safety catches along with secure attachment points, allowing users to train independently with confidence.
This makes it suitable for heavy lifts without relying on a training partner.
Advanced Cable System
The front cable system has been redesigned with multi-directional pulley sliders featuring seven horizontal positions. The additional adjustment positions allow users to fine-tune cable angles for different exercises and movement patterns.
This creates more setup options while reducing the need to reposition the body during training.
New Central Cable System
A major addition to the latest ALFA is the central cable system. Using the included connector plates, this system now supports lat pulldowns, expanding the machine's upper-body training capabilities.
The rear section also features nine adjustment points, allowing users to perform exercises such as:
- Seated rows
- Bicep curls
- Belt squats
The additional cable station increases the number of exercises that can be performed without requiring extra equipment.
Twin 90 kg Weight Stacks
The ALFA comes equipped with dual 90 kg steel weight stacks, providing smooth resistance for cable exercises. The independent stacks support bilateral and unilateral training while maintaining balanced cable movement.
Commercial Pulley System
The cable system uses commercial-grade aluminium pulleys with premium bearings for smooth operation.
It also features:
- 2:1 cable ratio
- 2,000 lb rated cables
This combination delivers consistent cable travel and reliable performance across the machine.
Expandable to 180 kg Per Side
For users requiring additional resistance, the ALFA includes drop-down plate horns. These allow users to add an extra 90 kg per side, increasing the total cable resistance to 180 kg per side.
This provides additional loading capacity without changing the machine's design.
