Speediance Gym Monster Smart Home Gym, Multifunctional Strength Training Machine, Smith Machine Power Cage Workout Station, Squat Rack Cable Machine, Full Body Fitness Equipment for Home Workout

DISCLAIMER: I'm not affiliated with Speediance in any way, nor am I being paid for this review. After two months of owning the machine and working out every single day, I wanted to give an in-depth overview of my experience as this has honestly been the best purchase for my health I've ever made and so far has exceeded all expectations. IF YOU READ NOTHING ELSE, BUY THIS MACHINE IF YOU ARE ON THE FENCE! FITNESS HISTORY: I'll be 40 this year, and have been in and out of every gym imaginable over the past 15 years. I've primarily worked out with free weights the entire time, with a few months of Orange Theory, Crossfit, F45 thrown in. Although I'm fairly fit and active, consistency has always been an issue for me. I'll go 12-18 months getting in amazing shape, take a 2 week vacation or get sick, then go 6 months sliding backwards until I repeat the cycle all over again. ALTERNATIVES: Before purchasing the Speediance, I was dead set on getting a Tonal after trying one out in a local mall. Unfortunately since I live in a Condo, I couldn't risk the noise that travels through the walls which IS a major issue if you research the Facebook / Reddit groups that talk about this. With that in mind, I was debating between Speediance, Vitruvian, and Oxefit as free standing solution. I chose Speediance since it was extremely compact compared to the Oxefit (which shouldn't be a part of any home gym unless you have a huge house), and the Vitruvian only allowed for exercises from the floor (the stand accessory was canceled last year due to lack of demand). POSITIVES: The Speediance honestly blew me away when I first received it and the build quality is much better than I was expecting after reading some complaints on the FB groups & Reddit. • Size: The Speediance is extremely compact and looks amazing next to my Peleton. It literally takes up around the same amount of floor space as my Powerblock Dumbbell stand. If you live in an apartment or condo, you can put this thing nearly anywhere and barely notice it once the platform is up. • Price / Subscription: I'm lucky enough in my career where price wasn't a determining factor in deciding between which smart gym to purchase. With that said, Speediance can't be beat if you purchase now with the free lifetime subscription, and there's no world where I could ever recommend purchasing a tonal at 2x the upfront cost + $750/yr in subscription fees. It honestly feels like a steal. • Cables vs Free Weights: I've done a lot of barbell/dumbell work in my day, but honestly rarely use cable machines outside of facepulls / lat pulldowns / tricep work. I was expecting this to feel like a Bowflex which is my only real experience with cable resistance, but it's nothing like that. The best way to explain it as it's like free weights on steroids and you can feel all the stabilizer muscles working. Bench presses, squats, deadlifts etc all feel much better to me than traditional free weights. • 220lb Resistance: I'm not a powerlifter or a large guy, but am strong for my size (5'7). My 1RM for barbell work is 180lb Bench, 220lb Squat, 240lb Deadlift. Originally I was worried that I would max out this machine fairly quickly for certain movements, but the cable resistance has humbled me. When I did my first strength assessment each lift was easily 25%+ less than what I can do with free weights, aka unless you are a huge power lifter you aren't going to max out this machine. • Variety of Movements: With free weights I will normally stick to the standard compound lifts and the accessory exercises I've always known. The huge array of different movements built into the software + instructions on how to perform them has really opened my eyes on how much I was limiting myself. Workouts are never boring now, and I think this is one of the biggest things motivating me to use this every day. • Screen Tilt: This is absolutely huge and allows you to look at the screen for almost every movement. IE when I do a bench press, I can tilt the screen 90 degrees and see every rep, power, etc. This is a small thing, but makes a big difference when working out which no other machine does to my knowledge. CONS: There's truly very few cons I've found with the Speediance. • Accessories: This is honestly the only area where Speediance feels "cheap", and I'm a little baffled at what they try to sell some of the accessories for (IE Handles). I'm including a section on all my top recommended third-party accessories I recommend, and a few accessories I think you should buy through Speediance. • Cable Burn: Without the cable extenders, some exercises will give you major cable burn causing you to never do them. Again, this is solvable with the Cable Extender accessory… INCLUDE IT WITH EVERY PURCHASE. TLDR; I had much more to say but I’ve hit the character limit for a review. Buy the machine!

ive had many home gym setups in my days. I was skeptical about these new electric motor, computerized gyms, but that seems to be the future, so I decided on this one because its about the lowest price of these types of home gyms, plus NO membership fees are required like Tonal and others. Space was a huge consederation for me, and this thing takes up very little space, and folds up nicely out of the way. The box is huge and heavy, so it may take some effort getting it in the house. Once it is unpacked it can be moved easy on its wheels. Unboxing is a pain, but theres hardly any assembly required other than the bench. Storing the box and packaging material is NOT easy, and GOOD LUCK re-packing it if you have to send it back!- I HIGHLY reccomend ordering through Amazon Prime AND get the warranty/product protection to avoid hassles. It is deliverd through 3rd party freight companies no matter where you buy it from, so the delivery service process will most likely lead to some rough handling during its journey. Mine came with the box somewhat beat up and had a minor part broken that didnt affect its functionality, BUT Amazon was VERY gracious on making it right from just a quick chat session without having to send it back. Doubt I would have got it handled that easy if I would have ordered it elsewhere. Prime does have its advantages sometimes! The machine has so many features, workout routines already programmed, you can customize your own routines, or just go into free mode and do your own thing. Keeps track of alot of stats and tracking to keep you motivated. Can do tons of excerises. The basic bench is quite puny but does its thing. i ordered another bench from temu that has incline/decline and a little more wider, and ALOT cheaper than the upgraded bench for this. Biggest dissapointment- the built in music. Its cheezy. The only other music option built-in is through apple which I dont have. But thats a minor ssue, i just use my cheap mp3 player and earphones and Im fine. I have had for a little over 4 months and Ive lost 15 lbs and seen a great deal of strength and toning with just a 3 day a week routine. Have had no mechanical/electical issuses with this machine so far. Time will tell. It is great for most anybody, unless you are into serious body bulding wanting to get huge- it just doesnt have the resistance for that as it only goes to 220 lbs, but none of these types of machines do. In my opinion the Gym Monster 1 basic package is the best option- the greatly added price for the Gym Monster 2 is NOT worth it. some accessories you can find cheaper and can make them work as well.

I purchased the Gym Monster (GM 1) almost 6 months ago and I have been incredibly pleased with the product and its versatility. As a long time gym goer, I am impressed with the machine's ability to adapt to all workouts, with significant weight capacity, up to 220 lbs. (And in fact if feels heavier than lifting regular weights due to the electronic pulley resistance / technology.) The machine is easy to set up - it basically works straight out of the box, and it's pretty intuitive with the various workouts and movements. There are a ton of workouts and programs available from beginner level to more advanced types of movements and courses. What's even more exciting is the community around the machine where some users can upload their custom workouts for all members to use. So you will find hundreds of movements and workouts available for the various muscle groups. And even better is the community on Facebook where a lot of users can help with technical troubleshooting and/or offer advice for weightlifting as necessary. (Reddit as well, but Facebook has more audience in my opinion.) The AI aspect (software) is pretty powerful and automatically adjusts the weight for my intensity, and in a recent software update, it offers programs and workouts to fit my specific goals. It will also adapt to my daily/weekly workout routine and suggest different workouts and programs based on my muscle fatigue. I think it's pretty cool! Overall it's a great, smart, at-home gym that rivals a real gym workout experience, and in my opinion, better than a lot of other competing products in the market.

日本語の翻訳が所々おかしな部分があり、ネット接続がされるため、アップデートに期待したいところですが、フリーウエイトで行う分に全く問題ありません。 なかなかの高価格帯の分、これ一台でほぼ全てのトレーニングができると思います。 パワーラックや多くのダンベルも必要なくなるので、そう言った意味でもとても優秀な製品かと思います。

I didn’t receive the full package. I only received the main machine without the flat bench and without the rower. I’m super disappointed considering the fact that it was so expensive. I also did not receive the hooks for the barbell. Such a disappointing delivery experience.

Ich habe das Family Plus jetzt seit einigen Wochen benutzt. Mich begeistert die unkomplizierte Funktionalität, alles ist "smooth" schnell aufgestellt und umgesteckt. Bin vom Rudern an den Seilen (war da etwas skeptisch) total begeistert. Ja, es ist noch nicht alles komplett in deutsch und die Software liefert immer mal witzige Übersetzungen, aber es ist alles gut und klar erklärt, man kommt sofort damit zu recht. Kein großartiger, zeitraubender Umbau, kein Scheiben rauf, Scheiben runter, einfach Gewicht eingestellt und los. So mag ich das. Bin da etwas faul und bequem. Wlan lief sofort ohne Probleme, Puls über Apple-Watch wird ohne Zicken erkannt. Das Rudern mit Seil ist sehr leise, der Sitz quietscht etwas beim vor und zurück Gleiten, mal sehen, ob ich das noch auf absolut leise bekomme, stört mich aber nicht. Ich wiege halt auch knapp 100kg. Ich bin Freizeitsportler, habe also wegen der 2x 50kg Last durch den Motor keine Bedenken, dass mir das mittelfristig zu wenig werden wird (Brust bei der Stärke-Bewertung 34 kg). Für Fortgeschrittene Kraftsportler mag das ein Problem sein, oder werden, für mich als Otto-Normalo Fitnesstrainierer ist das völlig ausreichend. Der Service war Klasse, ich hatte bei der Bestellung vergessen, das kostenlose Angebotsequipment in den Warenkorb zu legen, kurze Mail an den Verkäufer, kein Problem, nicht stornieren, wir liefern das auch so. Gesagt getan, die Skigriffe und Hantelhalter waren dann auch einige Tage später kostenlos da. Danke und Daumen hoch. Lieferzeit hat gepasst, es gab lediglich zum anvisierten Datum eine Verzögerung von 3 Tagen, finde ich völlig in Ordnung. Das Paket ist aber entsprechend der anderen Rezensionen wirklich groß und kommt auf einer Palette. Ich hätte das Teil nicht allein in die Wohnung - Erdgeschoß - bekommen. Zur Langlebigkeit kann ich natürlich nichts sagen, mich hat das Gerät jedenfalls aufgrund der intuitiven Handhabung voll motoviert und bisher überzeugt. Es steht im Ruhezustand eingeklappt hinter der Wohnzimmertür, fällt kaum auf und ist bei Bedarf in 30 Sekunden einsatzbereit, super.

Absoluter Gamechanger für mein Training! Klare Kaufempfehlung Ich nutze das GymMonster von Speediance jetzt täglich und bin absolut begeistert. Nach Jahren als zahlendes Fitnessstudio-Mitglied (mit extrem unregelmäßigen Besuchen) hat erst dieses Gerät dafür gesorgt, dass ich wirklich konsequent trainiere. Ich bereue nur eines: dass ich nicht direkt das große Bundle gekauft habe. Das Gerät macht so viel Spaß, dass ich mir jetzt nach und nach weiteres Zubehör zulegen werde. Pro Sehr hochwertige Verarbeitung Täglich einsetzbar, viele Übungsmöglichkeiten Endlich motivierend – ich trainiere jetzt wirklich jeden Tag Support reagiert schnell und hilfreich Leiser und stabiler als erwartet Kontra Kleine „Kinderkrankheiten“ (z. B. Übersetzung & Bluetooth-Ring) Fazit Für mich ein Mega-Gerät. Wer zuhause effektiv und flexibel trainieren will, liegt mit dem GymMonster genau richtig. Ich würde es jederzeit wieder kaufen – diesmal aber direkt mit großem Zubehörpaket.

This machine is AMAZING! Its transforming my life. First off, this is easily moveable to just about anywhere in your home, with such a small footprint. Extremely easy to setup and just “get going”!! Since I started using this, I have actually increased my workout times from 60 minutes a day to 180 minutes per day. Why, you ask? When I used to go to the gym, it was get in and get out as fast as I can. Same routine, same exercises, waiting for machine(s), etc. ZZZZZ, boring and easy to find a reason not to go, or like I said, get in and get out. This machine offers essentially a personal trainer built in, with so many exercises to choose from, ones I had never even thought about with my current routine. If considering purchasing, what are you paying for a personal trainer now? Another feature that has helped me tremendously is the range of motion it shows when performing the exercise. I tore my rotator cuff awhile back and have been slowly exercising it back up to snuff. I realized just how much I was overcompensating my exercises to one side upon performing them. I am now able to even out the movements to help build up the strength on the “lame” side again. This alone is extremely valuable, in my case. It is so easy to quickly switch between different exercises and muscle groups. Being able to customize my daily workouts, tracking amount of calories and time spent on a daily, weekly, monthly basis…you really cant go worng with this purchase!!! Did I mention ALL of these features are INCLUDED IN THE PRICE! I so enjoy using this machine, its almost, dare I say “fun” to workout now. Ask yourself this, when is the last time you went to the gym, came home and sometime during your day, you had extra time and said “hey” maybe I’ll go back to the gym and get another short workout in? Uhh NEVER! With the convenience of this machine at home, I find myself firing it back up again and getting another few sets in. I cant thank Speediance enough for literally having an impact on my overall well being. I hope that there may be an opportunity for an upgrade path to the version 2 or even in future, version 3 of this fantastic, well made, piece of equipment. If this is ever an option, count me in! I’m just not sure how they can make it any better….. EDIT: A follow up to my review, after a couple of months use….BUYER BEWARE. The support is DREADFUL. My bench came cracked. Ive been waiting 2 months already for a replacement and NOTHING has been done about it. Now, the left side cable ball that hold the attachment(s), will not release what is connected to it. Currently thats the tricep rope. So, that side is rendered useless unless I only do exercises with the rope. That means no chest, etc. The support just ignores you. So you are pretty much at the whim of the non-existent support. Completely unacceptable for a $4000 + machine.
