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

Life changing! Having been sedentary for years, finding a machine that allowed me to go from zero minutes a week of physical activity to a healthy 4-5 days a week session of resistance training, is priceless. Yes, the device is not cheap, but I consider it an investment on my health. Having used it for over 6 months now, I can say that the variety of exercises and movements, the frequent updates and improvements from the Speediance team, give me the diversity I look for to keep me engaged. I love the design (when folded it takes very little room, perfect for a condo). Assembly was minimal but beware it comes in very large and heavy boxes. I am far from maxing out the weights so expect to remain a user for years to come.

I wasn’t sure what to expect when I ordered the Speediance Gym Monster, but I can confidently say—it’s far better than I imagined. I had been eyeing a Tonal system, but the price gave me pause. When I found this unit, I didn’t expect it to be this well-designed, powerful, and seamlessly integrated into my daily workout routine.The overall design is fantastic—from the compact footprint to the ease of folding and unfolding, it’s clear that Speediance put real thought into making this machine both space-efficient and user-friendly. The touchscreen is large, responsive, and loud enough to keep you engaged, whether you're following a guided workout or adjusting your settings.It’s truly a multifunctional powerhouse all in one sleek setup. The build quality feels solid and durable, and the ecosystem of accessories (like the bench and PowerGrip handles) makes it even more versatile.If you're serious about home fitness and want something that delivers performance, convenience, and value, the Gym Monster is a must-have. I’m genuinely impressed and excited to keep pushing my limits with it.It also offers the ability to move it easily if you need to move it around due to the wheels on the base when tilted. I was able to move it from the box in the driveway easily into the house and down a narrow hall into my office with ease.

I have had my Gym Monster nearly a year and I love it. I love how compact, easy to use and versatile it is. This is the only piece of equipment you need. But beyond that the company is amazing. Every time I've reached out with questions or suggestions they have been incredibly receptive. Sincerely thanking me for taking the time to message them and they have even implemented suggestions I made promptly. They really do listen and care. And in the time I've had the machine, it has had so many significant updates to the software that I almost feel guilty that I'm getting them for free. Most recently they added heart rate monitor connectivity that works beautifully. There is still a little room for improvement regarding the AI usage and predictive fatigue... but at the rate they constantly improving I have no doubt they'll get to it. And I love that they do not require a monthly subscription and still provide such high quality programming making it much easier to justify the upfront cost.

I've been using this for 7 weeks as of this writing.The Speediance resistance machine and the workouts they offer are spectacular. Unfortunately, the size of the product appears just too difficult for Amazon and its last-mile service. I'd recommend buying directly from Speediance instead of Amazon.The Product: I compare this to years of free weight lifting (high school, college, and into my 30's); then a few years using single purpose, rigid machines at a gym, then a couple years using a universal cable / pulley machine at home. The rigid machines were the worst because they limited range of motion and sometimes caused stress or minor injury. Free weights have the most range, but the cable systems offer more than enough resistance and range of motion to give a great workout without that type of injury.The Speediance's advantages over the traditional cable machine are (1) small form factor, (2) ease of setup and moving to different locations after setup, and (3) great integrated display with tons of well-designed workouts. I bought it for the form factor but have been really impressed by the quality of included workouts. One of the signs that they really focus on the workout is that they include appropriate muscle stretches for a few minutes at the beginning and end. Also, they'll throw in planks, sit ups, and other exercises that don't require the machine because they seem to focus on quality of the workout, not just the machine.The machine's resistance for lifting is great! To me, it "feels" heavier than the weight I select, so I workout with lower numbers than I might at the gym with free weights. The bluetooth ring they supply to activate, deactivate and change the weight is really convenient and easy to use -- allowing for quick adjustments to the amount of weight and to release the weight if you "hit the wall." For that and many reasons, the workouts on this seem so efficient because transitioning from one exercise to another is very, very easy and quick. Notably, the workouts are really well designed to provide a full (or targeted) workout, efficiently.I'd recommend starting with the four-week full-body beginner's plan if you, like me, hadn't been working out for a while before receiving this. it has stretching, warm-ups, and great exercises 3 days per week, and I felt that I'd safely built some strength to tackle more vigorous exercises after completing it. Definitely had some soreness, but built strength and focuses on good form and learning the machine while building a base of strength. If you're not getting back into weight training after a long absences, like me, there are tons of intermediate and advanced programs to try ... along with free form lifting or creating your own programs.You can do strength assessments with this, which will then populate the exercises with a suggested amount of weight based on your strength.There are actually many other reasons I've loved this, but it's time for the Delivery problems. Without going into too many details, I will give a suggestion to make your delivery better than mine. As mentioned above, just buy directly from Speediance. If that's not an option, suffice it to say I lost two days (4 hours each) waiting for the delivery and spent many hours on the phone. Amazon support seemed like they could help, but they didn't. NSD, the delivery company lied about not having it in their warehouse, about having tried to contact me, about the missed days being Amazon's fault. Seems they lie to satisfy Amazon's metrics and don't care about the person or the delivery.If you decide to take the chance of ordering via Amazon instead of directly from Speediance, please begin checking your order status regularly to see when it arrives at the local warehouse and has been assigned a tracking number -- within Amazon's system. As soon as that happens, you'll need to call them (NSD) directly to schedule your delivery (even though Amazon's and their websites will show the delivery date you selected upon purchase.) Call and schedule! Otherwise, they'll miss your first delivery and claim they tried to call you but couldn't reach you. Mine was a week late and could have been much closer to on t-me since it arrived to their warehouse about 4 days before my scheduled delivery date. Just call and reschedule with them as soon as it hits the warehouse and has a tracking number. Good luck!
