Unboxing was fairly easy I just opened the box and removed the bench parts and cardboard packaging holding those in then stood the box up and pulled out a little more foam packaging from the sides and wheeled the machine out, the box with accessories and barbell were in the foam behind the platform. I bout a ramp to use to wheel it up a stair from the garage then moved the ramp inside for another stair to the main level and wheeled it into our exercise room. It was easy to setup although the bluetooth ring wouldn't pair no matter how many times I tried until I suspended the gym and turned it back on. And one pair of headphones I connected wouldn't work for more than a few minutes each time I connected them but another pair worked fine. I love that I can set the starting position so I don't have to worry about having the bar crush my chest during bench presses.
So far, so good! I love it! I love that I have a trainer to push me and make sure I do the workout correctly. I’m so glad I got the gym monster 3s. I look forward to a long journey of fitness!
Love it. One thing is that when I use a different weight setting than wellness+ recommends for a particular set because it is too heavy, after that set is complete, it goes back to the heavy setting for the next set, so I have to lower it again each set. It would be more convenient if it just kept the weight the same as to what I adjusted it to.
In 25 years of working out with different equipment, I can honestly say the Gym Monster 3S is something else—definitely one of the best pieces of equipment I’ve ever owned.
An excellent product. I previously had the Gym Monster 2 and this editon is an excellent upgrade. Looking forward to purchasing the new added lat pulldown attachment when it comes out.
So far so good. Just started to explore it and it’s pretty sweet. My incline bench is on backorder, and they didn’t tell me that when I ordered it so I’m a little bit put out by that, but other than that, it’s pretty cool.
I would happily give five stars but I haven’t received the adjustable bench yet. I was not informed that it is out of stock and will not be back for approximately three weeks. Hopefully it will come soon.
The bench didn’t arrive and will be shipped later. I don’t want to start to use the gym without the bench, so i am waiting…
Unfortunately i was not informed that the shipment of the bench was not together with the gym itself, and could be delayed some weeks…
Not nice experience unfortunately.
The product seems pretty nice.
Overall I am extremely happy with my new Gym Monster. The whole thing was super easy to set up and I love all the different programs and workouts that are available.
There are a couple things I wish were different with the workout library. Since I don’t have all the accessories I updated my settings to the ones I do have, but unfortunately the workout library still shows me workouts with equipment I don’t have. Also, I wish the there was a way to view a video of how to do certain exercises while you’re completing a workout to make sure I’m doing it correctly.
I love the app and that so many great features are free without a stupid subscription - I think everyone is sick of subscriptions these days.
The box did come damaged when it arrived, but none of the equipment was damaged so not a big deal.
I’m looking forward to enhancing my fitness with my new Speediance machine.
We are very happy with the Speediance Gym Monster. It is very versatile, with an incredibly wide range of exercises. I especially appreciate the 1 lbs increments in the weight. It completely replaced the gym for us. The guidance videos and features are very helpful.
I have had Sole trainer , innodigym trainer and finally got rid of both for this . Couldn’t be more pleased with form factor , workouts and overall system.
Arrived quickly! And this machine is sturdy. I picked the speediance because I didn’t want to mount anything to a wall or pay for a subscription. This machine does it all and no waiting for people to get off the equipment at the gym taking selfies and trying to be influencers. The entire family uses it and enjoys it.
This is the best piece of gym equipment I have ever bought. I can do all the exercises my gym provides. Even better than the gym is the eccentric mode and the spotter. I don't have to waste time changing weights, reducing the primary to a secondary. I can work to exhaustion in one movement.
I can sit on the bench and do shrugs with a heavier weight and avoid squats because it affects my knees. I have only had it for four days, but my back and shoulders are very tight. I didn't need all the extra equipment, so I purchased the gym monster 1.
The best parts are I don't waist one hours' time going to the gym or carrying the weights to the bench. Also, your follow up is very reassuring. I had some difficulties at first, but Kat was very helpful.
THANK YOU SPEEDIANCE. You can use this for promotion. Gary Heyduk
PS I'm 78 years old and getting in the best shape of my life. Please contact me if I can help promote Speediance.
Though having the home gym for less than a month me and wife have loved every minute on it. Simple to use, quick and easy set up. The video lead workouts are much helpful for anyone starting out. We love it!
I have really enjoyed the Speediance Gym Monster 1. I enjoy being able to make my custom workouts that are similar to what I was doing before the gym came, but also allows me to try new things. I was disappointed to find out that I did not have Pilates upon delivery and that was something that pushed me into buying Speediance over other home gyms, especially after spending quite a bit for the Pilates addition. I know I will get it eventually but it seems to be taking forever, even if I check about 10 times a day for the update!
Absolutely love it, it's all you need. It helps with cardio and muscle growth. It's saves so much time and it's worth the price. Comes with music that you can play while working and awesome instructions. 10/10
So far so good! The cable resistance is different than cable weights or free weights. Will take some getting used to, but there are a lot of workouts available. The network and Bluetooth disconnect more than I'd like, so will need to look into that. But it's easy to move around / set-up and get into your workouts.
