So what do you guys think? Would you put this beast on your wall?
Posted by Lidia:
Great, but way too pricy. $3K + Tax, Installation fee + Tax (?), $500 accessories +Tax and subscription which costs even more than gym & personal trainer. Not even mentioning repairs or electricity cost and issues. More realistic for regular folk would be: $1K for the whole package and $10.00 monthly subscription.
Such a great idea for someone who want a gym equipment at home but do not want to ruin the overall modern decor in the house, until the subscription…my wife and I was so excited and wanted to get one but the subscription is a deal breaker.
Yup, unlock those cameras & hope that the users installed it in their bedroom 🙂
This product looks so much promising. They can have cameras and ai if they already don’t to help correct the posture for any excecise.
This should revolutionize the workout equipment industry.
I just started watching right now, but in the interest of not wasting my time does it offer both concentric and eccentric resistance?
Lots of complaints by people who don’t even have one. I think it’s cool. If you can’t afford it or feel that the price is a problem? Move on. Resistance is simple science and old as the hills and proven.
All the useless different computerized exercise programs jack up the price of a great innovative product, yet leave it grossly underpowered. Its highest resistance is only 200 hundred pounds. Forget all the stupid guides on how to exercise. Serious weight lifters know how to work all their muscles. Make the product suitable for something other than cardio lifting.
3000.00
I guess I would rather pay a little more once and get lifetime subscription.
Can it work without the monthly subscription?
A great idea, but the membership aspect makes this a very expensive piece of equipment of a year or 2. It’s like paying a sign up fee of 3k and then 50 dollars a month (600pm)????
Give it a year or 2 and rival companies should make the product more price competitive. I’d buy if no membership option is available (UK).
It cant replace a real gym
In the name of Innovation and desire of Money. We are creating dumbest things
As a personal trainer , this is GOLD man ! All in one and takes really no place whatsoever !
This is kinda bs. Great technology beholden to an out dated business strategy. You pay that much for the product it should come with the service freely. That’s a large investment to make just to not have a complete product without submitting to a “feature” plan.
So this is a smart TV and a pully system that attaches to the same mechanisn that a $299 magnetic resistance exercise bike uses for $3000. It would be cool for $499 at $3K i’ll pass!
How does it work without the subscription?
Machine looks tempting but when they talk about the prices the average person is not going to work out on it You can get the same or more for like $300
People who can afford this have a personal trainer. People who cant just uses old fashion weights. So who is this for?
I was totally all for it.…then heard the $50 a month subscription fee…I’m out
Holy cow it comes with kawhi Leonard as a personal trainer, well worth the money 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣👍 but for reals… The machine looks dope 4 sure.…😆👍 if I had the money and the motivation I would love to try it out… So innovative… it’s a fusion of tech and bronze 💪🤓
so what happens when we lose electricity? we can’t work out?
So, essentially four grand all in by the time you plug it in to pull on that strap the first time. That’s a pretty hefty fee to work out at home. Self-indulgence, anyone?
I had a decent amount saved up for workout equipment and then the unexpected stimulus check came and I decided I would get this .… until I saw the subscription. Seriously? You want to charge me $3000 for a piece of equipment and then charge me 5 times more then a gym membership to use it?
🙄🙄🙄 A lot of people are complaining about this device as if it is made for athletes who are already able to lift 200 lb or close to that. I also see a lot of snarky comments saying that this can’t replace their beloved weight equipment.
Well I have a thought that seems to not have occurred for most of you—maybe this device wasn’t designed for You.
If you go to a store to buy shoes and pick up a pair that is not your size, how does it make sense to complain and gripe and shout that they will never replace the shoes on your feet?! Of course they will not, because they do not fit. They were not made for you, they were made to fit someone else with another set of needs; another size of feet. A smart person would just go find a pair of shoes that fit, not complain about the pair that doesn’t fit.
This device seems very suitable for my needs, here are my reasons:
-The convenience of having a home gym without the space required.
-The versatility of free weight moves it allows.
-The limitless accounts which will allow all my 7 family members to use it.
-The in real time instructions on movements you don’t get at a gym (which will help my older parents who are intimated by weights/equipment and uneducated on this topic).
-The spotter features will give us all peace of mind knowing everyone can work out alone whenever they want and not only when someone else is available to spot you.
(My parents will be more comfortable trying basic moves with a low weight without me having to be in the same room every time, just in case).
This is perfect for my situation. I have a family of 7 (my husband and I have my parents living with us which seems like it will turn into a permanent situation). On top of that we also have other family members that come over often. We don’t have much room for a full home gym. My husband travels constantly for work. I would like my whole family to start working on their health, as we all do not focus on exercising much currently. Both my parents already have small health issues and I think getting more exercise into their routines would only be beneficial. This would help my husband get a decent work out in when he is home as he is usually too tired to go out to a gym between trips. And since he has to leave on a dime often, this will help him be able to exercise whenever it’s convenient for him like a home gym.
My parents are older and very intimidated by the gym. I paid for my mother to have a gym membership for over a year and she was quite uncomfortable. She would only go when I could go with her. But I also do not have a convenient schedule. So everyone in my family often ends up putting off the exercise they should be getting.
The limitless accounts would be very helpful for the amount of people in my family. And I believe it will help us all to get some basic exercise into our lives. Even with the fees and membership, it will be worth it for our lifestyle.
I will say that I do wish it was less expensive, as I would purchase it immediately if was just a bit less. For now I will have to save for awhile to feel comfortable purchasing it. But I do feel this is the closest device I have found that fits my family’s needs and I have my eye on it!
I would love one of these but my method of training is heavy negatives. Could this machine support that type of training? Could we please push the 200lbs to 400please!
50 dolar subscription for pre recorded training doest make sense
Nice product , crazy price.
Is this product available in India if not will it come to India in future ???
I want one. Not taking down payments to bring down the monthly price is a bummer.
Can they increase the weight down the road?
Thanks, I’ll stick with the weights.
I was so in, then they mentioned the subscription, Im out
Love the idea of having this fit in my garage with my car but I’ll be keeping my gym membership for now
If I have to spend that much on monthly subscription I rather go to the gym.
Can you do a update review since the price hike and the software upgrades and other new support
