Great Compilations! Onto 2025

I love it man! Congrats!

This is awesome! Good idea to reflect on all your great accomplishments this year! Legit your gym changed so much! Lol

Not unpopular opinion. The wrong opinion

Day one

good work bro!!

Thank you for your hard work! Your review has provided us with a lot of valuable insights and areas for improvement. We hope your channel continues to grow and thrive in the coming year!

Is it just as easy (or even possible) to change the weight in the cradle if there are less plates in the cradle than whatever the max weight you've purchased at is? I anticipate having to move my dumbbells around before and after workouts as I don't know yet where I'll store them nor have a personal space yet as a gym, which would make these a bit unwieldy

Awesome thank you so much for the video

iv had my power block for over 1 year and i got them used they are older ones and they still work perfect and the guy i got them from was a animal so i know he used the crap out of them so i can say power blocks do hold up over the test of time and that makes power block worth it. i am thinking about getting the rep pepin i want a set to keep in my home gym and want to put one power block next to my computer and one in my living room to do sets when im watching tv and youtube. i love the power blocks because i know they last forever and as of right now i feel the repin and the power blocks are the 2 best pics if you want something that will last

I know that you do not have this anymore, but I was just curious are you able to do chest flys on this with the handles being so close together? Some people say it’s no problem and others say it’s a no go. I just was curious your opinion from someone that has actually owned it. Thank you !

Good review. A seller on Temu has this on sale for $301.00

How is it possible for a collar to switch between a 28mm bar and a 50mm bar? I'm guessing regular plates don't fit either so that's another purchase

Question: is it possible to remove the stupid gas powered stoppers so that the machine can go lower? Or are shiny metal stoppers fixed to the black frame that they are inserted in?

You're probably lifting too heavy for your grip

So mounting right to the studs is going to support the weight?. I just get nervous with that.

Obviously, we’d like them to have these issues corrected before they start sending out products to people, but at least they’re willing to go back and fix the mistakes or update the products

I had this and returned it because the bench was extremely wobbly. Is it fixed in the new version because I haven't seen you shake the bench? Also are you able to add washers to make the bench More stable? I currently have ver 2, it's been great and much more stable.

I was excited after reading the comment on your other video about a new part being added or some kind of change being made to make it more stable. Now I don't know how to feel haha. I have one on order, I just hope its less wobbly then your 1st review.

Really loving the new R&D department!

Good to see a converging arm path on a budget chest press machine.

I have the Powerblock Pro 125/175 Commercial and I like them.

The new Bells of Steel Max airbike has multiple handles grips and offers magnetic resistance on top of the air. Also come with tough turf and a handle kit. It is more expensive than this, but they say it’s commercial grade and you can’t break it.

Had the version 2 and I felt like it was fine for me but too big for the wife and kids. It’s definitely solid and beefy. I don’t like that if you wanna buy the turf tires and the handle and the water bottle and the phone holder it’s a couple hundred dollars more where other companies have all that included

I used to train with kettlebells about 20 years ago at the time I used cast iron kettlebells I’m not sure if competition style kettlebells existed then or they weren’t that common. Got back into kettlebells recently I bought the Bowflex having limited space it’s a decent compromise but the shape isn’t ideal especially in the rack position and the handle is a little bit thin. I’m looking for a better competition style kettlebells this or the British equivalent does seem a better option plus with a little more weight too. Thanks for the good review

similar to powertec. Our employer built an extra office for us and bought all the equipment for a full gym.

How much was it?

It looks pretty solid that red pops, but I can’t remember if I got red or black

Respect for building all this out for these videos. Does not seem like an easy process.

That red really pops

Стоит наверно как 10 обычных скамеек🌚

Just checked, and the plate loaded version uses flimsier uprights - 2"x2" 14-gauge.

Solid Budget options

Great review! I’m also 5’7”, but I have a pretty short inseam of about 24 inches. Do you have to set the seat to the lowest height, or are there still lower levels available when you use it? I’m asking because I might need to use a lower seat height due to my short legs.

I’m really wanting to get one, mainly because of the Smith machine. But I’m hesitant because I don’t know the quality. Could you squat 300 pounds on the Smith machine comfortably or is there a lot of rocking and movement to it? Would the smith machine last long with Heavy lifting every day?

how safe are the for dynamic/explosive exercises like snatches and cleans? I ask because I can see potential for accidentally hitting the selector pin out of place. I actually have read a couple comments on reddit forums people accidentally knocking open the selector pins. That's awful and a flawed design features - or at least limits its versatility and makes them severely overpriced for the amount of exercises you can do with them safely.

Since talking with GMWD, they have informed me that they have optimized the base tube structure stating that they effectively addressed the wobbling problem. Tighten all bolts as well, and it should be more stable with new orders! And they will also send replacements for previous purchases if need be!! I can appreciate the transparency and companies willing to work on areas of improvement.

Did your weight plates smell bad when they arrived?

I picked up Powerblock Sport EXP with the expansions up to 90lb brand new on Black Friday for $1100 less than it would have cost to order Rep / Pepins. That was just too much money saved to ignore. That being said, I don’t mind the blocky design so far but don’t really like the handle and don’t like that I can’t twist my hand into the grip to get a firm hold on it without my knuckles hitting the tubes for the 2.5lb weights. Other than that they seem very solid and I actually think they look pretty badass in my gym.

Thanks for comparing these two. I prefer PowerBlocks.

Just found your channel. Good review. Just bought a bar and set of plates from Fringe. I’m also in NH. Good shit bro. Keep up the videos.

We don't know how long Rep X Pépin dbells will last ? Ironmaster or powerblocks dbells are proven dbells for many years.

This is indeed an unpopular opinion. Powerblocks are the worst feeling adjustables on the market.

Powerblock also like 60% of the cost of repxpepin. Huge advantage there. They just suck when you want to do a lift requiring holding the dumbell somewhere besides the handle, or if your grip has fatigued and you want to wear straps.

I got the pro 100 exp its good, felt really nice, just that the handle is a little bit too thick for my small hands especially when pulling, but it is superb for pushing movements. The box design sometimes works well because it kinda hits your forearm and acts like a secondary support for the weight especially when doing lateral raise.

I have the original pepins they are my favourite piece of equipment in my home gym I don’t mind paying the heavier price used them for years now

I bought this chest press from Amazon and I love this bench I get very little wiggle with the arms and also very little wiggle in bench my chest bench is stable I have 200 pounds hundred pounds on each arm no bad wiggle it feels great and really works the chest I feel the burn in my chest also I had a problem with a part the arm adjust pull knob to lock in the arm reached out to gmwd through Amazon and they sent the part out to me very fast. I have a garage gym and it fit in well thumbs 👍🏾 up for me love it. Tighten the bolts well.

powerbocks are much more bulky, not nearly as durable, dont go as heavy and dont have a lifetime warrenty

I have the new Powerblock Pro 100 Exps. I was torn between PBs and the Reppins but I know I made the right choice. Having 100lb urethane coated dumbbells with knurled steel handles at home is amazing. These things are made for university and commercial gyms. They are the improved version of the Hammer Strength x Powerblock dumbbells.
