Okay I’m sold, I was waiting for a smart home gym that doesn’t require membership or classes, I workout at home because I want to be left alone, don’t want to follow no coach
This looks like an extremely good option. The vitruvian has an edge in movability, but the fact that this has vertical arms is a huge plus. There is also the benefit of not requiring the corny subscription up sell. I’m probably a year away from a purchase, but for now, vitruvian and this are on the short lift. Tonal with the wall mount, mandatory subscription, and higher price is a non starter
Do you think this device will help you build muscle and strength (the way weight training does)? When I used to train with resistance bands only I noticed that they did a good job of toning the muscles but not strengthening.
Is dropping the bar a problem in the bench press? I was seriously injured years ago doing free weights by dropping the bar. Tore my bicep head, still hurts today?
Would you recommend I really like this machine. I like tonal too but this seems more appealing. Coop garage gym reviews had reservations about buying recommends tonal or verttuvian+. Just like your honest opinion.
Wow, this actually looks great. The install process of Tonal has me spooked--I like how this folds up and you can conceivably move it to other rooms etc. since it has wheels. I just feel that all of these companies are going to go under in 18 months and leave you with a useless hunk of metal.
Thank you for a nice review! Are you only able to add up to a limited amount of lbs for the eccentric movement and not any number? Say I want to do curls with 100lbs concentric and 200lbs eccentric 5 sec lowering. Is that possible?
One thing I needed help understanding was the programs. Is it something where I can tell the machine that I want to work out three days a week, and it suggests a plan to make sure I hit everything, or does one need to know what moves they want to do and tell the machine that?
For programs. There are ~31 (13 intermediate, 13 beginner, 5 advanced) currently available… ranging from 3-6 days per week. Most are pretty well rounded so you just need to choose one that seems good for your time and goals and you can follow along. They have added a new program each week since I’ve been testing it out
You can preview all the workouts and programs before you enter them. Programs last from 3to7 weeks I think. 3 to 5 days a week. Before you join a program you can click on any day in the program to preview the workout of the day.
Colin what about after sale support? It looks like this product is sold by a Chinese company. Where do you get support in the US as they advertise on their website but give no details?
Unfortunately I am not sure, it looks like service for the 2-year warranty is done via email at service@speediance.com. How their after-sales support compares to Tonal's or others I don't know
@@ConnectTheWatts Seems like a great alternative to Tonal or Oxefit but I wouldn't want to deal with email support and no USA support. Others have complained about a lack of response from the company. Not a good sign. Too bad.
I've sent them three messages on the website chat and two messages via email over the last three weeks. Still no reply to anything. Isn't this red flag just terrifying??? Who can trust a company with NO CUSTOMER SERVICE.
I ordered on Black Friday. The only thing I don't like is they don't reply to questions. I'm still trying to get into the official facebook group after two weeks. Can't see a ton of community support on it so far. I got it for a steal though.
I supported the Kickstarter. So I got mine. But they are still trying to get all the Kickstarter Machines shipped. Shipping line troubles and the fact that their Government issued COVID shutdowns to their factory. Has led to the delays. Overall I really like my machine. I like they are regularly updating software. Not just for new workouts and programs. But for fixing minor issues. They are also taking suggestions from users in their Facebook group.I think they mentioned adding more resistance. Someone mentioned they heard up to 240 or 50. They allow I think 5 people per account. And just added couples workout to free lift mode. Meaning it will change the weight and tack metrics for two i.d.s has you take turns working out. I hope they add more traditional trainer lol rd classes, where you can follow your favorite trainers and live classes.
Great review, thanks Colin! To have the ultimate comparison, I am sooo looking forward to your review of Forme‘s LIft add-on. At least I hope there‘s going to be one 😊

This😂😂😂
Did you end up purchasing? If so, how do you like it? I just ordered mine 😊
@@christinacurto7508how have you been liking it? Have you been using it for the past year?

One thing that Vitruvian told me when I tried a demo was they they will soon have an accessory for vertical arms, which would be pretty nice as well
Great review as always! Would you choose this or the vitruvian?

this is like a cable machine and you can definitely build muscle with a cable machine...
Hope you try out the SQUATZ APOLLO fitness board too pal.. it's going to be a nice comparison. Thanks for the Speediance update
This seems like something where the V2 version of it is going to be perfect but it's not quite there yet
Stuff always gets better with model updates

Awesome video! How long did it take for the Speediance to arrive after you ordered it?
I ordered July 29th and they are estimating End Of August for me. Estimate though

Would you recommend this over the vitruvian?
Sorry, I have not had enough time with Vitruvian to be able to recommend one over the other.
@@ConnectTheWattsi hope you review it soon!

How much did you get yours for and where from?
@@glossolalian Black friday ended up making the deal 2600 or so which seemed like such a great deal

thanks! I do plan on it, but don't have it yet. Hopefully I can try it out soon..
No lat pulldown and such exercises have killed the speediance for me.
Is there no possibility for lat pulldown option?
Does anyone know if the speediance smart work a legit thing ?
Great review per usual
Does the weight feel heavier than tonal ?
This is better deal
I think these products will seriously improve as AI improves overtime. I really want to buy one but probably will wait for two more years.
Great review! At the moment I'm thinking about buying one; how long did it take for you to receive it?
I believe it took around a month
I think your affiliate link might have broke. Do you mind double checking your $200 off promo code for us? Thanks!
Your discount code is expired
Don't buy! Tons of better machines coming out that are better priced.
which ones? (I would like to look into them for comparison)
Which do you find to be superior?
