I just bought the Kbox4 Active. There is definitely a learning curve but it is insane. I love it. Its nice to add this to my regular weight training for some variety.
@MudPig61102 жыл бұрын
I've been using mine consistently for over a year and it really does make you a lot stronger. You may not see massive increases in the amount of weight you can lift on traditional machines or barbells, but you can tell that you are just way stronger over all on all kinds of movements. Would highly reccomend that you add this to your routine, even if you go to a commercial gym. When people tell me they have no room for a home gym I really do wish I was rich cause I'd just buy them a kbox.

I bought this during the covid gym panic and honestly this one piece of equipment probably has you covered for 70% of the exercises you would do at a commercial gym.Yiur really only limited by yiur imagination.Add a foldable bench and a pair of adjustable dumbells and you basically have a whole gym in your apartment.Its super expensive but it's a great piece of equipment.

Wicked!!! I'm sure that I'm not the only one who spotted those in your "coolest fitness equipment" video. I'm quite certain that the AB urethane bumpers are the same as Rogue's, at least they check out that way when comparing specs, etc. However, Rogue's warranty is only one year compared to 5 years for AB; that's a little extra piece of mind from my perspective. Also, Sorinex were selling they're black "Bosco: urethane bumpers with a LIFETIME warranty just a few weeks ago, but the site no longer states this anymore. They're made in North America, but the price is outrageous...

Yes it's not necessary. It looks like a gimmicky POS. I have to yank super hard to get it to do anything and when it reaches the end of it's ROM it yanks you down violently. See the squat and deadlift movements shown which when done properly have defined starting and ending points in the movement. It's a very expensive thing that looks like it's more likely to harm than help. Stick to barbells folks. Wait. I do see a benefit. It teaches bad form.

@@jowen7706 actually this is a comment from a seasoned lifter. When I see seriously strong people using this I will consider buying it. Watching form from 6 minutes on shows why it's junk. Rows, OHP squats and deadlifts look nothing like what this does. Let's do a rep and get violently yanked back down. Brilliant! And what the hell is a speed trainer? Someone who's clueless on how to teach people how to get stronger so they use gimmicky stuff to hide the lack of knowledge? This thing would look perfect next to the Walker Texas Ranger total gym.
