    Awesome video! This is the most thorough review I've seen of the Gym Monster. Recently ordered one myself, so I've been reviewing online content. I am even more excited about the purchase given your insight (sorry i didnt have the chance to use your promo code).

    You and mrs disciplinedave killed it this video! Has me laughing out loud in quite a few places!
    I saw your interview with Mike over at sliding bench trainer… just wondered why you didn’t consider a total gym or other sliding bench trainer? My big worry with smart gyms is that tech gets outdated or is not easily fixable a few years down the line in the same way that you can replace a cable in a traditional cable machine. Was this a concern for you guys at all??
    Please also keep up the resistance bands videos, I’ve learned a tonne from you! Have a great day!

      Thank you so much. We weren’t concerned about the tech being outdated because all the functions are internal (doesn’t require a phone) as far as repairs long term that could be a problem down the line. I need to look into their warranty policy. Thanks again for all the kind words I put a lot of work into this video

    Hey Dave, I know what you mean when you say that your wrists burn/hurt. I promise any amount of exercise you do, should be counteracted with some good stretching if you're not already! 😀 My stiffness caused so much pain before, and now I feel amazing! To prevent injury it's important to do dynamic stretching before workouts and static stretching following the workout!

    Hi Dave. Enjoy your channel.Have you had the chance to try out this machines competitors like the Sole SRVO and the Vitruvian which dont have the screen like Speediance but work off your phone ,tablet,etc. and offer more resistance? This machine looks like a winner if youve got the cash. Thanks for your super videos!

    Thanks for the review. I am considering the Speediance. May I ask when did you purchase the machine ? I’m asking because I see that your machine came with the smart handles with the Bluetooth built into them and that Bluetooth device that goes onto the bar. I like those accessories. The machine now comes with a Bluetooth Ring that I don’t like and I think it can be a saftey hazard. Also the non Bluetooth handles that you get now are cheap Amazon handles ( saw another UA-cam reviewer show them and he show them and even said they were cheap) .
    Also you can’t set the concentric and eccentric weight for an exercise for example if I wanted to do a barbell curl I can’t set the concentric to 50 pounds and the eccentric to 70 pounds . I asked Speediance and they said it can’t be done and I disagree because it can be done and it’s done on the tonal and other resistance machines.
    Your 6 feet , I am 6 feet 3 inches tall and I think that doing lat pulldowns would not be done properly. These issues that I brought up especially the Bluetooth ring is right now a deal breaker for me. I wish that the ring was an option and the Bluetooth handles were standard.

    • @DisciplineDave
      @DisciplineDave  Рік тому +4

      It was sent to me and they told me that the new model has the ring instead and to be honest with you I wish I had the ring because with the clap on the bar you have to keep moving it to find your "sweet spot" that your thumb can reach before you begin the exercise and I like my hands in different areas depending on the exercise. So with the ring it wont matter where me hands are because the rind will always be reachable. I don't know anything about the handles but I find that a plus also because I like the fact that I can choose my own handles instead of being stuck with there handles if they break. If you follow my channel I mostly workout with resistance bands and I had more handles break on me than bands snap. Next in my experience with the machine you can set the concentric and the eccentric so I do not know why they told you that. That is my favorite thing to do. Lastly I hear you on the lat pull downs that exercise you me has been a problem to get full range of motion so I just do the other back exercises. I honestly can do 95% of the exercises that I normally do at the gym on this machine. In short, I understand now why they made the changes that they made with the ring and the handles and now I really want ton purchase the ring so I don't have to keep adjusting the clap for that slows me down in my exercises, its a minor complaint but the ring makes it that much better. Thanks you watching and your great comment. 😊👍🏾

      @@DisciplineDave Thanks replying Dave. In regards to the lat pulldowns , can you get a full range of motion if you sat on the floor ?
      Now about setting the Concentric and Eccentric weight for a particular exercise, so to clarify you say that you can set the Concentric ( upwards movement weight ) and the Eccentric ( Downwards movement weight ) ? I haven’t seen any videos showing that or anyone letting users or potential customers know this is an option in Speediance app when they set up a exercise.
      Did you get those clips with your machine so you can use your own attachments if you want to ?
      Lastly about how wide and tall was the shipping box when it was sealed? I’m by myself and live in a high rise apartment building so I would like to bring up the box in one piece than unpack it in my apartment.

    • @DisciplineDave
      @DisciplineDave  Рік тому +1

      @@rambojohn7118 yes, you can get full range of motion of the lat pull down when seated on the floor but it does feel a little bit awkward because in a gym it’s coming straight down and you’re a little bit further back no matter what angle you choose to pull it down from. And yes the concentric on the way up you can change and the eccentric on the way down you can change. Both can be adjusted.

    • @DisciplineDave
      @DisciplineDave  Рік тому

      Yes, I find it long enough for all of my exercises except for one. When I do face pulls, I like to be a little bit further out than the platform but the platform acts as a brace so I can step outside of it and still get a good face pull. Also, the bench fits perfectly in the platform, at first I thought it was going to be too long but it’s the exact perfect length.

    Great review, I think now your channel will shift from resistance bands review to training devices review. I think it will be a great idea if you make a video talking about why you chose training in home with resistance bands, and don’t forget to try training with suspension training. Finally ,I agree with you that training leg at home is not satisfying.
