This is what I consider the ultimate, functional, affordable, compact, 6 post, 3x3 power rack build. Come check out the build specs, my personal considerations, and all the info you need to build your own.

Today I sat down with Eric (The Inside Gear) to get his unfiltered take and initial feedback using the Speediance Gym Monster 2 for the first time. TheJungleGymReviews full review coming 01/2025.

The Centr 3/Inspire Fitness SF3, is a fantastic home-gym oriented functional trainer that blends a dual sided functional trainer, smooth cables, and smith machine all in a compact footprint.

The Ice Pod is an extremely affordable, at-home cold plunge tub, that you can customize to your exact needs over time.

The XMARK CAT 5 Hurricane Commercial Air Bike is the newest challenger in the home-gym cardio space featuring multi-grip handles, directional wind vents, a super comfortable seat, and more!

The Keppi Weight Bench 5000 is one of the cheapest, FID benches on the market. It boasts an included leg holder attachment, a vertical storage stand, and 13 different angle adjustments.

The BalanceFrom/Signature Fitness SF-L2 commercial leg press is one of the best value leg press machines available, coming in at $800 including free freight shipping to your door.

The RitFit PLC01 Plate Loaded Leg Extension and Leg Curl machine is a pulley driven leg accessory/combo machine featuring an even resistance curve throughout the entire range of motion.

The new REP Fitness x Pépin Fast Series Adjustable Dumbbells live up to the high standards set by the original Pépin made in Canada version, for only a fraction of the cost.

Check out the close up, in depth, and side by side comparison of the original Pépin Fast Series and the new REP Fitness x Pépin Fast Series Adjustable Dumbbells.

The Speediance Gym Monster 2 is the newest interactive all-in-one smart home gym offering that allows you to get a variety of great workouts in from the comfort of your own home.

The XMARK Black Diamond Commercial Adjustable Weight Bench is one of the best, and definitely the most stable bench I have ever used. It boasts overbuilt quality, sleek aesthetics, and ideal comfort.

The Mikolo Falcon is the most affordable functional trainer with a 1:1 pulley ratio for heavy single sided exercises, like lat pulldowns and low rows, all while maintaining a very reasonable footprint.

The Major Fitness Drone 1 is one of the most affordable functional trainer and power rack combo's I have seen to date and packs a lot of versatility into a relatively small footprint.

This Dialed Motion cable system is super smooth, extremely functional, feels and looks absolutely premium, utilizes your racks existing footprint, and is available at an extremely reasonable price.

Over four years and hundreds of hours spent training went into designing this most recent version of my carefully hand selected home gym. Come talk a walkthrough of my setup with this home gym tour video.

The RitFit BLP01 2-in-1 Leg Press and Hack Squat Machine combo is one of the cheapest, yet most functional, dedicated machines you can have in your home gym.

The Major Fitness F22 is a good starter all-in-one home gym that combines the functionality of a power rack with the endless versatility of a functional trainer.

This has the potential to be one of the most innovative power rack attachments I’ve seen to date.

After months of using the Bolt Fitness Storm Series Gemini Peregrine Lateral Raise Chest Fly Combo power rack attachment it in my training, I can safely it’s both unique and provides a great price per functionality especially for home gym users. It combines arguably two of the most important muscle groups of all time and would be a great addition to anyone looking to add versatility without sacrificing space or their wallet.

The Fray Fitness Plate Loaded Leg Extension and Leg Curl combo is one of many budget friendly options that allows home gym users to have a dedicated quad and hamstring accessory machine combined, in a small footprint, and at a reasonable price. The functionality of this machine is on par with its competitors, but being at the higher end of that range, I think it falls shorts in a few select categories. Overall, it’s a good price per value but I don’t think it stands above the other options in that $300-700 price range as being significantly better or worse, but if you can find it used or on sale, I would definitely recommend this machine as it does work exactly as intended.
