It took me just under an hour to assemble my Schwinn A10, but it was pretty easy to do, even by myself.  The instructions are clear and easy to follow.  And this device is well worth the effort.  Its a nice looking exercise bike, with a sturdy build and lots of features!  With in- handle heart-rate monitoring, a comfortable adjustable height seat, and an excellent electronic console with a broad range of presets and as much flexibility as you need, its a great addition to any home gym.

I bought a used Golds Home Gym system and it didn't come with all the attachments I was hoping for so I purchased this set. The quality is as good as anything you'll find in a professional gym and fits just about any machine. I use my system 4 times a wekk and have had no problems with these attachments at all. Highly recommended!

This kettlebell is a great addition to my home gym. I don't have the issues others are mentioning such as hands being irritated by the seam. All in all, it's a good product.

I have been using the Freeform Gym for four days now and I can already feel the difference. The design of this gym is amazing!  It is simple to set up and very compact.  It is very easy to move, but it doesn't take up much space, so you may not need to. It literally takes seconds to switch the weight resistance and the action of the various exercises is super smooth!  The smoothness of motion makes it possible to get a great cardio workout while your building strength, something I don't think is possible with free weights. I am also impressed with all of the different types of exercises you can do with this machine. It works a wide range of both upper and lower body muscles. To work all the different muscles, you need to alter positions slightly; I keep finding new muscles to work with this gym!

I'm 43 and in decent shape, but I'm a little skinny and I would like to build some muscle and strength. I don't plan on ever bench pressing 300 or getting ripped and I really don't want to go to a gym with a bunch of "Jersey Shore twenty-somethings." This gym is perfect for me.

I'm giving this product five stars as it is well worth the money.  There is always room for improvement, though, and I have a few suggestions for the inventor.  Some of these suggestions will add to the cost, but will also provide added value.

1)  The first thing I read when I saw the box was "Made in China."  This was disappointing.  This product was invented by an American in America and I would love to see a big "MADE IN AMERICA" logo across the box; I for one would be willing to pay extra for this.

2)  Add a 100lb band set.  This would be easy to do and it would add to the life and usability of the equipment.

3)  Add a little padding on the bottom of the seat and on the straps.  The bicep and ab exercises can be a little uncomfortable.

4) Include slots for the bands when they are not engaged; they tend to flop over and sometime get in the way.

Overall, this is a great product and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to get into shape.

there is a LOT you can do with these if this is your only tool for your home gym.  I live in a 2 bedroom apartment with 3 people.  We are packed in here like sardines so there is no room for any equipment.  But these and my yoga mat are all I need.  Easy to adjust, solid, very sturdy.  I found the heavy plates (5 lb) were pretty big in diameter so doing curls or cleans was a little more difficult but still manageable.  very happy with the purchase.

After not being able to do squats for several sessions at my local gym due to guys taking up the squat racks, I decided to purchase my own squat rack. I squat around 225-255 so needed a solid rack. The rack is in my study so it couldn't take up too much room. I also needed the rack for bench presses.

This rack is perfect for all of these reasons. I don't worry about it moving or bending - it seems sturdy enough to handle significantly more than I'm putting on it. The angle makes both squats and bench presses possible. I also like the weight holders on the sides since I don't have room for a separate weight rack.

I have been far more consistent in my workouts since I've added this rack at home several months ago. It's made a huge difference in my health. My wife is probably tired of hearing me express how glad I am to have invested in this rack but I couldn't be more pleased.

I added this bench to my fitness studio based on the look and reviews.  I am a strength trainer and I am not disappointed with its quality..  The bench arrived in great shape and was easy for me to assemble with only a few parts that needed to be connected.  The bench adjusts easily and has a good foam padding.  I have used it in most every phase I can think of with dumbbells, barbells and cable exercises as well as just body weight movements.  This is a very heavy piece of equipment that is sturdy.  I would recommend this product to anyone that wants a versatile piece of equipment to their fitness world.  I would be glad to answer any questions about my purchase to anyone considering buying it.

XMARK the Spot. Right on the mark for simplicity and functionality.  Easy to assemble and plenty long enough for someone 6' 3" tall or more when bench press or other. Nice and easy to use accessory pieces.  You will need to tighten bolts after a couple weeks of use but that's to be expected when using daily for workouts. Excellent equipment, especially considering the price. I highly recommend this for your home gym.

Was skeptical about this bench but turned out to be a great addition to the home gym. The padding wasn't excessive and have no problems keeping my shoulder blades flat for proper form and freely stable even when benching 275lbs. I alone weigh 245 and stand about 6'1. The leg attachments are great because you can just take it off with no tools needed, and you actually can do both leg ext. And curls for added exercise options; However I haven't done more than 90lbs just to test the motion and wouldn't expect to load it up like you would at the gym. Bench surprised me and happy my gf bought it as a Christmas gift. If you're already benching 400 plus lbs then you already know this isn't the bench for you anyways but for every one else you won't be sorry.

This is a great addition to the home gym.  Leave it in plain sight and the kids even use it.  Just a few minutes each day tones the abs and gets you well on your way to keeping trim.  Highly recommend having one at the house.  If you don't have time to hit the gym, you can feel great putting in the time on the Ab Wheel.  Denise

This is a great piece of equipment. It feels like a more expensive unit. The size is perfect for a home gym.

Let's talk assembly. This was really easy to put together . The directions are great and the different components and hardware are clearly marked for easy instal.

The one thing that isn't perfect is the onboard calorie count. I use an Apple Watch on the elliptical setting and burn more calories on my watch then what is shown on he elliptical. Which to me isn't such a bad thing bc if rather it be a little low then showing you burn more calories then you do. This problem is fixed if you have a smart watch or work out band.

I would highly recommend this to anyone looking to add in some cardio into your daily work out routine. Bottom line is I love this elliptical.

This is an excellent product. It's extremely well built for home gym purposes, extremely heavy (which I like - not hollow like some other bars) and the knurling on the bar is very pronounced. For some of you special snowflakes, too much knurling might dig into your delicate hands and make it hard on your poodle when you pet them. For me, it's fantastic; great grip, so you can rip into the lifts. Fantastic pickup for any home gym. Would highly recommend it. I 've seen less than stellar reviews for CAP on Amazon, but this is the second piece of CAP equipment I've bought (the other being a neutral grip pulldown bar) and both are great pieces of equipment that are sturdy, well made, not very pretty, and feel built to last. And the prices were right. So, color me impressed.

First off, I am not some beefy guy who bench presses 400 pounds.  I am however, an avid weight lifter and have been for 5 years.  There are times at which I don't want to drive to the gym which is why I am slowly accumulating home fitness equipment.  I already have a pull-up bar and pushup bars, so logically my next purchase was dumbbells.

I was deciding between these dumbbells and the Power Block ones, and I'm glad I made the decision I did.  The BowFlex SelectTech 552s are wonderfully constructed.  You can see where your money goes when you pick one up.  They have a good thick solid handle and solid weight plates to match.  I was afraid that there would be a lot of plastic in the assembly, but I was wrong.  Changing a weight takes only a second, and you can go from 5 to 52.5 in a flash.  You also have the option of "offsetting" the weights, thus making one side of the dumbbell heavier than the other.  This allows you to do even more varying types of exercises (it comes with a DVD and book of a few exercises for each muscle group)

Each dumbbell comes in a "base" which is also sturdy and allows you to lock the dumbbell in place.  There is an optional stand you can buy, but unless you have a bad back I wouldn't bother with it.  I keep my dumbbells under my bed on a blanket, and just drag the blanket across the floor when I want to use them.  The stand does look better visually, but it's not needed.

Perhaps the only flaw is the size of the dumbbells.  They're pretty massive length wise.  This really isn't a problem though.  I just wouldn't be swinging them around in a tight space.  You also have to remember that a set of dumbbells ranging from 5 to 55 would take up a TON more space than these puppies.

I have one tip for the up and coming home gym enthusiast.  If you're not in the market for a bench, I recommend a fitness ball (also called Swiss balls).  The great thing about the ball is you can just deflate it when you're not using it (saves space, not time).  However, I plan on getting the BowFlex bench 5.1 because it allows you to be a decline, incline, 180 degree, and 90 degree position.

Overall these dumbbells are a must have if you want to workout at home.  More and more often I find myself skipping the gym and hitting the weights at home.
