Meet Kaylee and Tyson. Since January, their Speediance Gym Monster 2 hasn't just been gym equipment—it's been the cornerstone of a life-changing fitness journey.
"We've been loving it! "One of the best purchases we've ever made," they rave. For Tyson, that meant committing to heavy lifting 4 days a week, consistently, month after month. Cardio was light (just some weekly pickleball!), but the focus on a high-protein diet and unwavering consistency powered incredible results.

Tyson Haderlie-My Speediance Journey
Back in January, my wife and I decided it was time to make a real change. I’ve always had good intentions when it comes to working out for my health, but I struggled to stay consistent and motivated with traditional routines. That’s when we purchased the Gym Monster 2, and it’s truly been life-changing.
We chose the Gym Monster 2 over other systems like Tonal because of its versatility. Since it’s on wheels, we can move it anywhere we need—like bringing it inside when the garage gets too hot in the summer. That flexibility alone has made it such a great fit for our family.
I started lifting 4 days a week, first using the workouts in Speediance’s library and then creating my own custom programs. I built an upper/lower split so I could train each muscle group twice per week, which has been perfect for my goals.
When I started in January, I weighed 225.5 lbs. Today, I’m 179 lbs—down 46.5 lbs. I’ve followed a high-protein diet (about 1g of protein per pound of bodyweight) while staying in a calorie deficit, aiming for steady, sustainable fat loss of 1.5–2 lbs per week. Lifting with the Gym Monster 2 allowed me to preserve muscle while shedding fat, and the progress has been incredible.
Every three months, I tracked my strength, and the results blew me away:
• Chest strength up 30% in 3 months (another 12% after that)
• Shoulders up 28.5% (then another 7.7%)
• Back up 36.7%, then maxed the machine out at 220 lbs of resistance
• Arms up nearly 50% in 3 months and increasing every month.
These numbers proved I was getting stronger and building muscle even while losing weight.
The Gym Monster 2 has completely transformed not just my body, but my life. I have more energy, I feel the healthiest I ever have, and when I look in the mirror I’m proud of what I see. The convenience of having everything in one machine—no drive time, no swapping plates, no excuses—has made consistency possible for me for the first time. With a busy family, I could never justify spending 2 hours going to and from a gym, but now fitness fits seamlessly into my lifestyle.
The electromagnetic resistance is a game-changer, and the versatility means I never feel limited in what I can train. Speediance didn’t just give me a piece of equipment—it gave me back my confidence, health, and motivation.
This incredible journey deeply resonates with users just starting out:
“First of all, I want to thank you for posting these pictures. I’m new here and I just got my machine a week ago, but every time I wanna look up on YouTube anyone who has used this you always see these well built jocks who probably have been going to the gym forever.And it’s very nice to see a regular guy just like myself see some real results. This is great and very motivational.Again, thank you , I’m 65 and am very motivated”-Rafael Robledo Jr.
