I’ve had my Gym Monster 2 (GM2) for about 2 weeks now, and all I can say is that we love it! Going into this purchase, my mind was wrapped around the fact that we’d have the ability to do a bunch of different exercises without having a bunch of weights to lug around, and all with a small footprint. What I didn’t give nearly as much weight to in my purchase decision was the “smart” part of the gym and the content available from it. This I think is where things get really cool! On day one, I did some free weights. That was great. Given all the pivot points for the cable you can do a lot of different exercise (like other cable machines). The first time you experience the weight turning on is sort of (and still to this day) magical. Being able to quickly change the weights and select from standard, cable, eccentric or fixed speed modes is a great feature. Also being able to set a spotter is awesome. If you can’t finish the rep, the machine will start to lower the weight until you’re able to get it moving again! Then on day 2 I tried one of the daily workout routines. This was awesome. I was able to select a 30ish minute workout that targeted the group of muscles I was interested in that day. I didn’t have to think much after that. I was guided through various video workouts, some of the videos tell you things to watch out for in your technique, and you get instant feedback if you’re lifting uneven, not holding your rep long enough, etc. At the end of the workout, you get a report to show you how you did, and it stores it in your profile. No more having to remember how much weight you used last, when you last did a certain exercise, or charting your progress, etc. It’s all there. I’ve since added my own custom workout routines where I can select the individual exercises from the catalog and specify the reps, weight types, etc., and it’s all ready for me to go with the click of a few buttons on the screen. So, what’s next? I want to try a multiple day/week programs that are available within the platform. The other thing I really like is that my kids like to use it. The rule I have is that they can only do a guided workout if they pay attention to the form and what the personal trainer is saying. This is great because they can learn the correct techniques and not treat my GM2 as another one of their toys! Overall, we love this thing. So, what do I not like? The only thing I can really think of is related to how the workouts are filmed and recorded. There seems to be two types of videos recorded. One that has video with a dubbed over (computer generated?) voice, and another where the personal trainer is actually talking to you. They each have their own benefits. I like how the dubbed over audio videos will stop the playing vocal track when you have 3 reps left and tell you that you have 3 reps left. But the voice track in general seems very impersonable. In contrast, the videos where the personal trainer is talking to you seems more personable and genuine, I’d imagine like working with a real personal trainer to some degree. The only bad thing is it doesn’t tell you when you have those 3 reps left, but they do tell you good job at the end. It would be cool if they could somehow combine the two styles of filming so that you had the feedback of where you’re at with your workout without having to look at the screen. A couple other things, the Official Speediance Community Facebook group is great and has a lot of positive vibes going on. The other thing I think is cool is the different goals and challenges that are available in the app. I’m working on the 20 Day Resolution Ready 2025 Challenge in hopes of winning a physical gold badge! I have a completely different type of product where that company does similar challenges and ships you badges or awards. It’s a great after-purchase experience for customers. I hope Speediance continues this! The other goals awarded in the app are also nice milestones to celebrate the work you’ve put into your workouts. Again, I’ve owned the GM2 for two weeks, but I’m loving it. I’ve used it almost every day and I can already see a difference in the mirror and how I feel. I can’t wait to see what the next few months bring to my overall health.

I really like this device. It is effective but yet nice and compact. I have been utilizing the machine for about 5 months now, at least 20x per month. There is a large variety exercise plans that they come out with on a regular basis. They will have a monthly challenge that will encourage you to do about 15 workouts in a 20 day span. There is also an AI driven workout program but I haven’t tried it yet. You can also make custom workouts and workout with a partner. The weight feels really smooth 98% of the time. If it feels off, it’s often just a quick fix by slowly extending the cable then allowing it to retract slowly. The weight can go up to 110lbs per cable or 220 total. As long as you are not trying to go very heavy with benching, deadlifts, or whatnot it will be a pretty solid option at home. One small annoyance that I do find is that the bench included wobbles a little. Other minor software bugs have been getting fixed on a regular basis and the UI keeps improving. The Facebook user group is very active and they will often respond to questions or comments on there. When you are looking at ordering this, I would strongly encourage you to think about how you expect to get the device in place. It’s really heavy and going down/up stairs is very much a two person job and not for lightweights. If you think it might be too heavy for you it probably is and you might want to get an upgraded delivery.

The software is vast and rediculously user friendly (including with all the modes like eccentric or chain modes for example. The workouts and routines are extremely customizable (and no I dont pay for a subscription). I set my own routine or follow the preprogrammed ones. Not just the software and its utilization, but the structural design and mechanics are integral and innovative. Transitioning from ground to off ground resistance is very smooth and quick. These guys have really thought of everything and made working out, enjoyable again. The safety features seem solid. The ring disables the weight as well if the balance of your rep is too off level. Weight distribution is well balanced during workout (just make sure u have dumbbell or barbell selected appropriately!) Ive only taken the weight up to 120 lbs and it handled perfectly whilst feeling natural. Had to deal with support one time over a faulted ring. They were quick and easy to deal with. Replacement in a few days. And for assembly, anyone with half a brain would find it easy and quick. Id just recommend getting the "amazon room deliver." It is quite heavy. Overall, i love it.

The product itself is fine but some of the items in the box are missing (small items). They won’t send replacement items I have to pack up this heavy machine and send the whole thing back. I don’t recommend buying from here

Awesome machine! Not as easy as they say to get started....plug and play no plug and confusion, no instructions except the videos they have you tube answered and showed me how all the attachments and blue tooth devices work - very minor glitch to gettin started....now i love it but havent figured out how to favorite the exercises I do and want and land up endlessly searching through pages... all other aspects just have minor changes to the way you would do at the gym....awesome instant weights, awesome resistance, ease of changing things (attachments), no a huge machine, once on floor you want (hard to get up stairs) it can be moved without much difficulty....wondering how long the cables will or are expected to last.......awesome even more awesome at the price point.....loving it!

Literally life-altering. Amazing product that makes setting up exercise routines super easy, and it takes you through each saved routing with controlled, definable timing. Switching between attachments is very quick, and I get so much more done within each workout day. Also gives excellent reports on muscle groups and which are ready to train again, based on previous workouts, so I can see if I’m overtraining anything, or missing any muscle groups. Only one initial issue I had was the Bluetooth ring disconnecting, which turned out to because the installer had connected the two antennas on the back the wrong way around (WiFi antenna is slightly different to the Bluetooth antenna). Switching them back was simple and fixed everything. For 30 years I’ve had conventional home gym equipment and have never had it so easy as this.

Built a makeshift gym in our basement. Overall, the machine is amazing and I would have gladly given 5 stars had it not been for 2 caveats. The first caveat is they abandoned the entirely free platform and now the AI features are largely locked behind a sub, however the machine can still be used in manual mode and is not locked behind a paywall like tonal and others.The AI features cost less than half the competitors subs so while annoying its not a deal breaker. Caveat#2 = dont even waste your time with couples mode unless wanting to do two seperate exorcises on each of the two pulleys and jump back and forth. Me and my Wife are supporting eachothers fitness goals. We alternate our rep sets and while one does their set of 10 the other hops on the virtual pinball machine or our dart board to play their round in player 1 and player 2 fashion. The caveat is this = swapping between profiles is absolutely not an option and if it is it would be very slow and cumbersome so you end up taking turns on the same profile instead.. this makes that profile lool like superman and doesnt produce great data. To prevent botching either of our user profiles we had to create a third user peofile called hubby and wifey..we work out together on this profile..we adjust the weight each time we alternate and its an absolute blast still. However, the speediance folks really should make a true partner mode which allows essentially player 1 and player 2 structure similar to darts and have it so player 1 touches the screens end turn button to go to player 2. Have it maintain the weight settings of each player aka profile and this machine would be 5 stars all day. We found a way to make everything work out in a way that makes the work fun. Some minor qol improvements and this machine cn go from being good to being great.

Update 5/30/25 - back to 5 Stars. Speediance shipped a new monitor, which was super easy to install with just 3 screws in the back. No everything is back to normal operation and no issues/error so far. Have been using the new monitor for about two weeks. This was originally 5 stars. I'm currently down-grading this because of a technical issue relating to the internal storage (see pics). It tells you that the internal storage is full (which seems crazy in 2025 and I have only around 12 exercises book-marked). Then when you click clear files, it tells you they're gone, but they are not really gone and you can't get back to the main screen from the storage screen. You have to turn the machine off and on again. Soon after the same issue pops up with the same files. I wonder if there's a way to increase the internal storage via the usb port in the back? Also please NOTE: do NOT put this machine on 2.4Ghz wifi, it NEEDS 5Ghz. Otherwise, the load times are crazy slow (a complaint I've read in other comments/reviews). Putting it on 5Ghz wifi makes it super fast. Necessary fixes in my opinion: 1) Turn off music by default and include Spotify and other services (or at least make it an option to turn it off by default) 2) Increase internal storage space or make it possible to expand 3) Fix grammatical/syntactic/lexical errors in the frontend software (not highest priority obviously) Overall, this thing is great, especially since you don't need a subscription, which is what I wanted to avoid at all cost. It feels like a full home gym and is built solidly.

Funciona muy bien, fácil de entender y rápido de acostumbrarse a su modo de uso. Considerar que es difícil de mover entre pisos (escaleras), recomiendo que entre 3 personas hagan ese movimiento mientras sigue en su empaque cerrado. Pero una vez que la máquina está en su lugar final es muy sencillo desembalar (1 persona es suficiente) y sus rueditas permiten moverlo entre cuartos del mismo piso fácilmente.

The gm2 starts to impress from the packaging. As soon as you open the box you can understand that this company has paid attention to all details. Fast delivery. Everything well and stable packed. The small wheels help to move around the heavy machine. And then you start using it. Excellent build quality. Very easy to adjust the weight resistance. A big screen with a "personal trainer". Easy to follow information. Good speakers to accompany your training. The team has payed attention to every little detail. You are not going to regret it.

Ich bin mega happy mit dem Gymmonster2. Es gibt seit einigen Wochen auch einen deutschen Trainer. Damit sind die Anweisungen für mich noch verständlicher. Ich trainiere seit fast 2 Monaten jeden morgen. Immer 30 Minuten - jeden Tag verschiedene Muskelgruppen. Eine Anzeige zeigt mir welche Muskelgruppe heute mal Pause bräuchte und warnt mich vor einem Übertrainieren des Muskels. Einige meckern hier über die Musik und fehlende Amazon Music oder sonstwas Unterstützung. Ich komme mit den freeware Songs gut klar. Es gibt verschiedene Musikrichtungen und ich will mal behaupten, dass da für jeden was dabei ist. Ich hatte nach dem Kauf erst gesehen, dass man bei einem Kauf von über 3000 Euro ein Anrecht auf 2 kostenlose Artikel hat, diese musste man allerdings in den Warenkorb packen. Das habe ich nicht gesehen und nicht gemacht. Eine Email an den Speediance Support und 3 Tage später waren die beiden kostenlos Artikel bei mir zuhause. Einen Trainingsplan habe ich mir übrigens über chatgpt erstellt und dann alles so in meinem Trainingsplan zusammengeklickt, dass ich nur sehr sehr wenig umbauen muss. Ich hasse Sport wirklich sehr - aber mit dem Gerät packe ich es jetzt immerhin schon fast 60 Tage in Folge mich morgens aufzuraffen.

I've had this for a little over a year now, and it is a great piece of equipment. It felt a bit strange at first with some exercises like bench press, as it feels much different than free weights, but once you get use to it, it's great, it gives a good workout as you have constant resistance both on eccentric, and concentric movements, where as with free weights you have momentum to help a little. It's like having many different pieces of equipment in one, and leaves a very small foot print. It has many features and gets regular software updates. It keeps track of your stats, has countless movements, exercises, and routines. I really like this machine.

Servizio impeccabile. Arrivato prima del previsto con imballaggio super potente. Il venditore ha risposto a una mia domanda nel giro di un’ora e ha risolto il mio problema. Complimenti. Siete stati fantastici e attrezzo super mega fantastico!!!
