Is this pounds, grams, or amu's?

Id guess lb. Goes up to 120 which would be a bit heavy for kg but who knows - I have seen machines that go up that high but usually they cap out more like 80kg or so

120 is nothing for lb so I think this is kg

Yeah maybe you’re right 10lb on a pulldown would be a bit weird wouldn’t it

They even have modular 5lb, they do start this low in my experience

I checked at the gym today, our machine does start at 10lb 🤔

Definitely done 120 kg and beyond on pull downs. If you're a heavier dude, that's still easier than chin ups.
