REP Fitness Brand New Cardio Line Deep Dive!

[@YunisRajab]

Oh boy that treadmill could be a game changer. For the right price I'd buy it right away

[@farazhamedani2625]

Exactly. The price point could make it the end game on the market or something select test into and the market slowly catches up. Lower margins higher volume sales, rep! Please and thanks !

[@SteveKelly1]

Their rower is 51% more expensive than a C2. That’s a product category where there is a clear established gold standard. Their treadmill is unique and so far there aren’t any alternatives. If you think that treadmill will be ‘priced right’ you’re crazy.

[@farazhamedani2625]

@@SteveKelly1 you’re right. I’ll brace myself for the price tag and just stick to running outside and weight vests.

[@gregdedrick2150]

Rep is killing it with innovation. Love my Rep equipment.

[@denisknox9904]

Definitely need a more in depth review of the runner/sled push, that one is by far the best.

[@pWin317]

they should make these have compartments that can take common home HVAC air filters so you can clean your air while you cardio.

[@Razer-zx8rv]

That is genius

[@TheXILLR]

That runner is awesome. Need to see a full review on that.

[@GarageGymReviews]

Yeah, the runner is definitely the stand out IMO too. - Coop

[@malverdetx8582]

@@GarageGymReviewswhat’s the estimated price? The different fan blade options over-complicates things. Such a weird choice by rep.

[@jtbeckett6561]

Coop hit a nerve asking for the price. "Obviously c2 is the gold standard at 990. How much is this?" 😮

[@richardmather1906]

In other words, "why even bother making this."

[@shredcity7217]

was worried the sled push would be too light, like the technogym one, but it looks solid. def eyeballing that one

[@chrisross3631]

I don't even like cardio, but I want all of these!

[@TheRizzler30000]

The resistance handle on the airbike is in an awkward spot. They should turn it into a shifter attached to the handle like you would see on a regular bike. That way people don't have to let go of the handle and whatnot.

[@jamesedlund931]

Kinda hard to justify getting this rower over a C2 when it's more expensive. Great preview as usual, looking forward to that treadmill/sled combo tho. Looks really interesting. Thanks Coop!

[@rjm656]

If it provides more function than a c2 then it has to be more expensive. Problem is that the resistance needs to be higher than what coop showed or there isn’t enough difference.

[@jamesedlund931]

@@rjm656 Ya I'm good.

[@zerohero6602]

Price point is so crucial

[@I922sParkCir]

​@@rjm656 There's also quality, and reliability. We know that C2 products last, are built in Vermont, and I can get all the reasonably priced replacement parts to rebuild an old machine. I have no fear that a machine is going to break and I can't get it up and running again. I am also confident I can sell my machine for about what I paid for it (I bought mine a few years ago where they were a couple hundred dollars cheaper). REP stuff looks great, but they outsource to China and probably don't have 100% control of their manufacturing. If my V1 of their rower breaks, and they are on V3, will they have those V1 parts? C2 supports there stuff forever.

[@pointmass]

Big part of C2’s edge is the community of users.

[@djbakasan]

Totally thought the resistance system was a gimmick when these were first shown, but having the benefit of seeing them in action, I’m actually very intrigued about adding one of these.

[@samrmills]

Thx…I been waiting for this one. I wonder what the price point will be for the treadmill? I’m also wondering about being able to move that treadmill too

[@andrewvanbezooijen5181]

Definitely want to see a runner review. Worried about the maintenance and how repairable that fan blade situation is gonna be. It's a lot more parts than a C2.

[@sheltonmorris2536]

These things are sick. Love that the fans are mechanical.

[@sheltonmorris2536]

Although I believe the sled handle on the treadmill should definitely have knurling.

[@taiiiz3969]

​@@sheltonmorris2536but why? You're never pulling it

[@coachthierry1]

Coop I have a question! Is this the first Airbike/airdyne you guys are aware of to have truly adjustable resistance? If so that’s truly game changing and can’t be overstated, I love airbikes for myself and my clients but I have thought about getting different models with different sized fans just because it can be hard to get the resistance you want for either a specific goal or a person’s level. Assault and Echo for example are a little too heavy for my older clients who just started fitness.

[@TweetenAthletics]

Do you feel like the bar on the runner is too high to get a good lean into to produce force through the tread?

[@AlphaZero1]

I was wondering this too. I feel like they need two drop down handles to get lower for more drive.

[@williambcollins]

Agreed. Looked too vertical.

[@pointmass]

I do love that treadmill…lol. Been looking for a new one that I can do HIIT on. Had my traditional treadmill for over 20 years and only goes to 12mph. I have C2 Rowerg and have been wanting to add Skierg. Glad I’ve waited so long, now. Nice job REP.

[@darkknight716]

One thing i dont see anyone mentioning about air bikes is that theyre not really a steady state cardio machine. Theyre more of a HIT training machine, but dude said that you could get long sessions in on interval 1. Just saying, ive been waiting for someone to drop an air bike that you can use as a hjgh intensity piece or a steady state piece. Hopefully you can touch on that in a more in depth review Coop. Looking forward to the treadmill also!

[@Illegallycopyrighted]

Wow…the future is bright!!!!

[@mleppo91]

I have been waiting for this preview! It looks like their blade pitch system is similar to the way helicopters change their angle of attack. If it is, then it is well proven technology and should be reliable. With limited $ & space, the most interesting one is the treadmill by far. I am curious how it stacks up in terms of price, size, and performance to the BoS Blitz Manual (magnetic curved) Treadmill ($5k) and Xebex SledTrac 6000 ($3.2k). If they hit the $3k price point, it's an easy win for Rep.

[@DanTheMan356]

It looks like we didn’t get pricing in the video for the treadmill, did you get an answer on that? I’d love to see the treadmill reviewed first.

[@TheCatastroPHI]

Wonder what the price point of the treadmill will be!

[@xchia]

That treadmill is so awesome!!

[@kurtkelley2955]

[@weston5692]

How does the tread stack up with air assault pro on price? Love the idea of not buying a torque tank but didn’t love the last review of treadmill with sled. Thoughts on this being a good substitute for both?

[@MH-bw9zt]

Maybe I missed it but did they give an estimated release date?

[@srhenderson]

SLIGHTLY off topic, does REP have any smith machines in the works? i'm not a great barbell squatter. i need the smith for stability. a smith with ares would be GREAT.

[@MarsFit78006]

Vesta fitness should have a smith machine attachment coming in next couple months that will work with pr5000. It is the same attachment you can see on their 3 in 1 power rack. Just a different sku.

@GarageGymReviews Coop: can you check out the Arcadia Max? I know your only gripe on the Arcadia was its small size, want to see what you think of the bigger one. That treadmill is awesome. I would love to have one of those.

[@bp6508]

Would like to be able to have a lower option to push for “sleds”

[@gruit5876]

That popped in my head when I saw it too. If the sled bar could swing down and lock in position.

[@farazhamedani2625]

Right. Very high hand position compared to how most sled pushes are done. CrossFit or otherwise.

[@Davisauraus]

the one thing i worry about are the blades that rotate for the resistance. I'm sure they're solid but moving parts that are enclosed worry me.

[@timk8258]

Fan resistance had been around for decades, it’s a proven design. Being able to tilt the blades to modify the resistance is what’s new and makes these pieces much more versatile.

[@JJ-zr6fu]

My thought as well. Adding moving parts seems like a bad move long term would’ve preferred some other form of resistance especially since fan resistance naturally builds the fast you go

[@samsmith8643]

There's a lot of moving parts compared to the C2. I can see maintenance being an issue with the Rep cardio equipment. Had my C2 rower over a decade and my bike and ski ergs about 5-6 years and they're still as good as new.

The rep treadmill sled combo with air resistance is cool. Definitely like to see a full review on it.😊

[@simonedmundson1426]

Would love them to do a fan resistance wheeled prowler sled

[@JJ-to6qu]

So if I'm getting this right, combining blade pitch with a damper would allow you to control both how much air is moving and how quickly it's moving? Conceptionally, you'd be able to use these as both cardio and strength training (not comparable to barbell, obviously). I wonder if there are any stats on the weight equivalent of the pulls/pushes and I'm also curious how much additional stress that puts on the components and what they've done to beef them up accordingly.

[@yutube1983]

Would love to see a full review on the runner. Possibly a comparison with the aussie pro runner

[@shredcity7217]

verticle or 45 degree handles on the airbike would be choice 👌🏻

[@yangtroy1]

Agreed, only apprehension on that one

[@evotikto]

If the air bike has no pitch (easiest angle), then it would be possible to perform for LISS cardio? The option being there on top of HIIT is very appealing. I hope they include more handle angles, too.

[@MrStripedsocks]

That treadmill is nice. Hard to beat concept 2 for ski erg. Don’t understand rep ski erg is better. Maybe price?

[@gruit5876]

The treadmill for sprinting and sledding forwards and backwards definitely grabbed my attention the minute I saw it. It looks like a compact design, the pitch is interesting would adjusting incline to simulate uphill running be practical with a design like this or is the pitch in the front meant to simulate up hill running? Or maybe the design is meant to reduce impact on your ankles and knees?

[@InjuryPreventionGuy]

If companies don't do this already with Coop, it would be very beneficial for them to hire him as consultant to help improve their concepts before mass production.

[@farazhamedani2625]

Did they ever get passed pricing for the rower? Or assuming they’re all around the same price, 1200-1500 even for the tread or ski erg?

[@Lefty1284]

Would love to know a possible release date and price on the runner and how it is for longer (5 to 20 mile) runs? 8:54

[@matthewanderson3335]

Any chance you can do a review of the SYL power rack trolley pulley system? I want to add a smith machine to my home gym but don’t have the space to buy another rack just for that and no one has made smith attachments you can just add to your power rack; so syl trolleys seem like a good option to just add to my current power rack. Only problem is that hardly anyone has done any reviews of them.

[@zaheen656]

Any update on when these are coming out? Holding out on buying a treadmill cause I'd want the Rep Runner

[@joshua_patterson]

More moving parts. More things that can break and need to be fixed/replaced. I dunno about this style. Will be interesting to see once they come out and gyms are using them to see how they hold up.

[@derrik5329]

The runner looks like a great choice but that fan on the side makes it an awkward fit in a small gym space. If it was somehow able to be 'put away' itd be an instabuy.

[@SettleNow]

If the blades were oriented with the long sides parallel to the axle so that the housing was a long/wide cylinder rather than a deep “circle” they could fit the assembly under or in front of the running surface rather than next to it.

[@caitlinandchrisforsyth1304]

Review the treadmill first. Super excited for that

[@Iname247]

Have you got a channel with videos of you doing training programs or workouts?

[@JimmyBeans84]

The treadmill looks sick. Hopefully the price is on point. I would love to see Rep add an attachment or something to that sled bar so the backwards walks aren't just a straight bar digging into your back. $1,200 seems pretty crazy for the rower until you figure in that shipping is included. Still, shipping is only around $55 so I think they will have a tough time competing with the C2 at a higher price point. There is just so much reputation around the C2 that a higher price is doing them a bit of a disservice. I would also love to see the resistance cabling tucked away or something so it isn't just hanging out like that. Not the end of the world but it's the small things. I really hope the fan bike can accommodate people with short legs. That was my biggest gripe about the Echo. Hopefully Rep's bike can accommodate a wider variety of body types.

I’m excited. Looks like the next evolution in cardio if they can get it right on launch. Not just an assault bike / rower clone that everyone else has right now.

[@fitseano]

Awesome coverage. Generally, I'm skeptical of home gym companies doing cardio. C2's rower is dominant for more than the build... resale value, readily available cheap parts, universally comparable times... you can do online competitions, compare times in Hyrox, etc. Skieerg the network effects are probably smaller but still there. After I got those two, the Bikeerg was almost inevitable. All that said... the RUNNER looks amazing. I was looking at treadmills and sledmills, but will hold off on all of them. Wish they could have teased a price tho'...

[@mitchellbanks197]

lol Coop's reaction to the pricing. You could tell he wanted to tell them they were way off base. Idk how anyone justifies this at 50% higher than C2
