I ordered the Gmwd v3 it is at a very good price with a 100 bucks off hope it work out for me working out in the morning because of work good to have the safety features.
Nice review! One question though, can you lower the stoppers all the way down for an even greater stretch at the bottom? Or do you have to use designated holes? I see in the video you had like another notch down you could’ve went but was wondering if you could just lower all the way down past the holes?
Thanks, I ended up getting the V1 and the stoppers on it go really low so the ROM is exactly what I wanted. Plus it’s the heaviest in the stretched position and easier at the top, which is another major benefit that I love.
@@crayb89 once you try v1 out: how is the incline angle? Is it really 30 degrees as advertised or are they exaggerating a 20 degree angle? Also would you consider the incline position even realistic to use? (Or is it too uncomfortable that close to the floor?)
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?
Edit: this company doesn't even have an instruction pdf on their website to review before purchase so I can't see if the stoppers are part of the frame: RED FLAG
I believe they are attached somehow to the gas shocks or what ever is assisted the movement are the arm adjustment. The V3 I would say is smoother and you can get more range of motion based of the seat adjustments going from incline, flat, decline.
Yes you can remove them, I have this machine and it's way better than v3. It has 400 lbs weight compacity vs ver 3 only has 300 lb. I also replaced the rubber part that holds the arms with horse stall mats and I get really deep rom now.
@@Oldmanstrengths i already went with plate dumbells and a seat for incline press instead of these sketchy machines. But I agree this machine looks better and more sturdy than the wobbly v3 (plus for v3, who tf cares about decline press we want incline baby)
Ya I wouldn’t say it is commercial grade like a hammer strength machine, but then again those are 5000 dollars. I think it would work out fine at a commercial gym!

Could you showcase a video?
@ not good at that type of video but I will try.
Ya it’s a good affordable way to safely press, with multiple angles at that. I want to try the V3.

My understanding is the stoppers are air powered so the pins are needed to stop it from going up. Lame since it limits stretch.
You can remove them, I did and get great rom now.

@@wizzlet6821 Ver 2 is a beast, I'm about to upload a short of me using it.
can you use this in a small commercial gym?
