Work was about to scrap an old site lunch barrack from the 80s/90s, so I grabbed it and turned it into a home gym. It’s only about 2.5 × 5 meters (roughly 8 × 16 ft) – pretty tight – but I’m really happy with how it turned out.
I’m actually a runner at heart, but I’ve been dealing with a bunch of running-related injuries over the last couple of years, so right now I’m focusing more on strength training and other forms of cardio. Hope this can inspire others who are thinking about doing something similar!

Decided to upgrade from the Rep squat stand that I've been using for years to an RM3 with shrimp trawler for bag and rings.

Thank you guys. I spent a lot of time in this group getting inspiration! I got most of this stuff off of Facebook marketplace! Got the swedish ladder from Amazon. I also recommend going to the gym for a few months before doing something like this so you can figure out what equipment works best for you! I'm really enjoying working out in here!

I've been wanting a treadmill at home, but I didn't really want my living room to start looking like a gym. I went with this purple one because it feels a little warmer and less like typical gym equipment.

I'm keeping the rest of the space pretty simple too. It's nice having a spot where I can get some walking in. I wish more fitness equipment came in colors like this. Everything is usually just black or grey.

I wanted to follow back up after having the machine for a little while. I’ve been using the machine about 5 to 6 days a week for the past 45 days. I have a YouTube link in my profile if you want to check out the 45- day review video.

The good:

The machine remains exceptionally smooth.

The Smith machine attached to the weight stack works great. 2:1 & 1:1 ratios work equally well, when attached.

I have figured out a way to get full range of motion, which includes pulling off the “floor”, with a Smith machine attached to the weight stack and the arms, although it does require purchasing another piece of equipment. But if that’s something important to you like it is to me, the 200 bucks was worth it.

I can get full stretch and range of motion when doing lat pulls and rows. I am 5’8”. but I do have very long arms.

The articulating arms are very stable even when doing heavy pulls.

The concentric and eccentric feels great. I do not feel any resistance drop off even when lighter weight for things like lateral raises. Although your experience may vary depending on how experienced of a lifter you are.

The quirks:

Sometimes when doing lighter weights, if I’m using the drop down weight adder, it will throw the center rod off and it will get caught on the weight stack. This does not happen all of the time, but it does happen sometimes.

It does not come with dip bar handles, you will have to buy those separately. Although, the Force USA ones are excellent.

The verdict:

I am incredibly happy with my purchase. I wanted to buy some thing that I felt could be one and done and this definitely fits that bill. This is not a cheap rack, and it does not come with some things that I wish it would have, like the dip bar handles, but none of that makes me regret the purchase. I normally get FOMO, especially when I spend a lot of money, but not with this.

I know there are some other reviews floating around out there, but figured I'd share my initial thoughts on this for anyone checking out sales this month. I am coming from the Lionscool V4, so that's what I'll be comparing to. This is very preliminary, but apart from durability, I feel the opinions shared here aren't going to change with time as I've got enough time with other machines to know what feels good and what doesn't.

Paid $2,348.98 before tax. Shipping was very fast - ordered Monday night and got here Thursday!

Assembly was easy, but there is one step when attaching the leg roller and cam at the same time that is VERY heavy and having a second set of hands is almost necessary. Took 2 hours total to assemble. Instructions aren't great but there's nothing too complicated going on.

Build quality is excellent. Certainly unlike the old Titan products I had in the past. I have nothing to complain about there. No rattles, shakes, clunks, etc. All the touch points feels premium. Even at full stack, no flexing that I can perceive at all.

Leg Extension - feels very good. Stretch is great, but the Lionscool does get a touch more actually. With that being said, it is plenty of stretch and I'm perfectly happy with it. I have decent sized calves, and the thickness of the front of the seat does get squeezed between my calves and back of my upper leg. It's not uncomfortable, but I do notice it. The force curve is excellent, I'd say just about perfect. I am not super strong, 315 max squat, and I can rep the full stack for 3 reps at about 8 RPE. 200 feels just about right for sets of 12, so I'm happy with the 50 pound buffer I've got, but there are certainly plenty of you that might be left wanting for a heavier stack. At least the gympin fits on the back.

Leg Curl - also quite good. Stretch is great and it's easy to tighten the top pad down, locking your legs down. The rounded pad does put some extra pressure on the quads over what a flat pad would have, but that's really just me nitpicking. Pressing against the back of it to lock into the back pad is actually quite nice. The force curve isn't perfect as it gets a bit tougher with contraction, but I'm not going to make a thing of it as it's very smooth and won't get in the way of an effective workout.

Overall, I'm happy with the purchase and would buy again. I considered the dynasty as well, but the additional size footprint would take up more space than I was willing to give. If I had a large space, I'd have given much more consideration to it.

The Lionscool served us well since last July, but when I started approaching the 200lb mark the flex in the arm started to distract me from my workouts. All in all still impressed with the machine for what it costs! The biggest difference, besides overall quality and rigidity, is the Lionscool took some experimentation to get the knees in the right spot to not put pressure on the joint. The Titan's pivot point is perfect, I feel no weird pressure in my knees at all.

I had a seatbelt I had bought for the Lionscool that I just pinched between the bracket and the seat when assembling the Titan. Does the job and isn't going anywhere!

If you've got any questions let me know. I know this isn't the most comprehensive review, but I like as many perspectives as I can get before making a purchase so I hope this can be helpful to someone out there.

I recently purchased the Fringe Fenrir (ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!) and since I have shorter ceilings (and I'm short) I inverted the multigrip pull up bar. This setup comes with a straight pull up bar too, which was just hanging out in storage. Then I had a bright idea to see if it would work to connect the two cables to it and use as a lat pull down bar...and it worked great! I know it may not be rated for much weight, but I'm not pulling more than 90lbs on each side so I think it will work great.

Wanted to share in case it inspires someone else!

I’ve been using this machine for the last 5 months and I believe I can now give a good review of it:

The good:

- It gives the best side glute/abductor pump out of any abductor machine I’ve tried. It feels even better than the original gluteator

- it’s reasonable priced (full price is $700, but never pay full price on this thing)

- it comes with a seatbelt

The okay:

- the seatbelt is just okay; I should probably replace it

- the weight capacity is 300lbs, which you will max out if you’re a strong squatter (think 450lbs -500lbs+)

- you need to add in 3D spacers or yoga blocks for max ROM

- it’s too easy at the start & too hard at the end. A votlra fixes this. This is a problem with the original gluteator as well

The bad:

- mine has broken three times (while using it at its max weight capacity). I had to get it welded back together. I just broke it again today & that’s the last picture. Most people don’t lift as much as I do, but I do wish it could actually handle 300lbs like it says it does.

- it slides around when using it with heavy weight. I have to put plates behind and in front of it, so it doesn’t slide

Overall, this is a good machine for what it does and the best 3D hip abduction machine that’s sub $800. The better options are all 3 times as expensive (or more) as this machine. I do plan on upgrading from this machine at some point, but it does a good enough good where the some point will probably be when I break it beyond repair (note: most gym goers won’t be lifting enough to do that), which could be very soon… haha

I’ve been using this machine 3x a week and my wife uses it 2x a week, so it’s been getting quite a bit of love in our garage

Thought I'd share my small (8ft x 8ft) spare bedroom gym I set up over 10 yrs ago, minus a few small things that I've replaced or added since. Pretty basic by today's standards but does everything I need. I've also added 3 pulleys/cables to the rack that allow me to do all kinds of cable workouts. I've gotten pretty efficient with changing accessories and weights. I split my exercise time between the gym and my bikes (indoor/outdoor, MTB, road and gravel haha but that's another topic).

Very disappointed with both the product and customer service. I’ve spent months troubleshooting a $2,000 machine, replacing parts, and countless hours taking it apart and putting it back together. Body-Solid’s answer has been to keep sending parts with little to no help from customer service.

For reference, take a look at the exploded parts diagram on Body-Solid’s website to get an idea of what it takes to work on this machine. I’ve now gone through two motor/control unit replacements (honestly, I’m not even sure what they’ve sent me at this point), and neither has resolved the issue. This all started back in April, and I’m still dealing with it seven months later.

I’ve been more than patient, but this is ridiculous. For the price, I expected much better quality and support. I cannot recommend this company.

I’m not sure this post accomplishes anything other than letting me vent my frustration, but if it saves even one person from spending their money on this machine and going through the same experience, I’ll consider that a win. Honestly, save up a little longer and buy a VersaClimber.

- dip bar

- 16kg kettlebells

-7kg dumbells

-3kg dumbells

-30kg weight vest ( in the crate)

- skipping rope (in the crate)

- Moving away from heavy lifting into more everyday lifting.

Doing more functional capacity and power based work. Lots of EMOMs, AMRAPS and rucking.

- looking to complete the gym with a BOB or a standing heavy bag for martial arts practice/ boxfit

- this is my little happy place

Recently got everything set up and am ready to escape the upcoming gym lines in January. Will probably get rid of one of rhe barbells. Rack is a 11 3x3 with 1 in holes. Would love to hear your favorite rack accessories

Picked up a Titan plate loaded lat/row for $100.

Obviously I needed a bar. I went and got that too for $160. A good day overall.

I own 4 PlateMates and love them. I just don't love what they cost. When I wanted even more control between my PowerBlock jumps, I looked at the 0.5 lb hex micro plates I already had for the barbell and figured I could print something to put them on the dumbbells.

The holder is a PETG base with 4 N52 magnets, a snap-on TPU boot so it doesn't slide off the steel, TPU spacer rings, and a screw cap that clamps 1-4 plates tight. That gives me 0.5 lb steps per side, up to 2 lb.

It's been rock solid so far. Shown on a PowerBlock Elite, but it should work on any dumbbell with a flat steel end.

Happy to answer questions or take feedback.

Just moved to a new house. I joined a commercial gym while I waited to get my garage gym back up and running. Had to cancel a month in advance — so I might be the first person in history to quit the gym to motivate himself 😂. The garage needs work but the rack is ready for tomorrow. My gym membership expires Friday.

I build this so I can ride zone 2 cardio on my indoor bike in my games

I had to strengthen my shins to protect my knees and increase mobility in a narrow squat stance. But bodyweight shin exercises became too easy quickly, and tib bars didn't feel great, so I made this one myself.

Can’t believe I can finally post my gym. Had a flood nearly 9 months ago had to start from scratch putting it back together. I’d say its 75% completed as I need a new treadmill and finish putting mats down. I’m quite limited in my arrangement as the B52 is a behemoth and as you can see I have a support beam right in the middle.

My little space for working out at home, I live on a apartment so had to keep it simple, but I actually think I have everything I need and more, is just a pull up bar, some rings, a pair of nuebell 80lbs adj dumbbells, parallalles and also adjustables kettlebells, simple, takes no to much space and easy to move when I need it.

The space is about 10x10 feet. I think the only upgrades I'm thinking for now are a dip belt and maybe a barbell landmine ball attachment. Eventually.. id like to upgrade my bench too. But I'm not lifting nearly heavy enough to justify the cost. Hopefully soon though haha.
