The Best Smart Home Gym Equipment for 2023 | Tonal, Peloton, iFit, Hydrow & More!

[@beggsjoe]

I have an issue with any piece of home gym equipment that requires a monthly membership. I would rather drop an extra $400 a year on more equipment.

[@craigman7262]

lol fr. Just get a used Pro Form treadmill and a used airdyne less than $400 for both.

[@gymreviewer]

That’s a good point. It’s like paying a membership to use your own home gym 😂😂😂

[@enigmatic7665]

Gotta say I’m so happy I discovered your channel. Your tip about horsestall mats has changed my home gym so much. No more beat up floors

[@Rahul-g8x]

same here🤗

[@christophercattie]

I prefer the iFit experience to Peloton. When I'm on a bike, I want to simulate an outdoor ride someplace vs the Peloton class which reminds me I'm stuck riding a fake bike inside.

[@bcarter9252]

I invested in a DOG and a leash. Let's me run, walk, interval training, meet people, bending (poop pick up) exercises..AND a training partner. Best money I spent.

[@BaldOmniMan]

I’m always gonna invest in a good plate and barbell set up over these.

[@avinashtyagi2]

What about smart plates and barbells?

[@bmstylee]

Bald man you have chosen wisely.

[@rsoobo9150]

As far as fitness metrics the Garmin watches are superior to Apple. And no need to recharge daily. Also a review of trainer attachments for your bike like wahoo should be mentioned. Great channel

[@peteAKAfred]

I feel like the physical Nordictrack and ProForm machines are okay but the iFit programming really takes them to a much higher level. I love that you can climb Mt. Kilimanjaro or hike to Mt. Everest Base Camp or run intervals in Uzbekistan or explore an ancient tomb with an archaeologist in Egypt. I think the programming is so compelling because the production value is spectacular, the trainers are great and you can learn all kinds of great stuff and almost feel like you’re traveling while getting a workout in. I think the fact that the workouts are so fun and varied makes it easy to get on them every day. For me though the programming far outshines the physical equipment.

[@etypiccolo]

Plates, bar, bench n rack. All you will ever need.

[@gymreviewer]

Smart gyms may be the future but they still have a long way to go!

[@bmstylee]

The future for people who are long on cash and short on wanting physical gains.

[@girlsdrinkfeck]

since coop never works out ,he needs some bodybuilder celebs in his videos to do a 2nd opinion :) ( satire ,if u morons dont realise )

[@solomonfreeman3217]

If you're going to do a bike section I would like to see what you think of zwift. Things like the wahoo kicker or other smart bike trainers.

[@gymreviewer]

I just want a smart gym that puts away all my dumbbells/ plates at the end of a session 😂😂😂

[@MissVendetta]

As someone that doesn't have access to a gym (closest one is 45 minutes) but wants to put together a gym in a smaller space (extra bedroom) this is JUST the video I needed. Thank you so much. Also I love the shirt. :D

[@brianlee1933]

Tonal needs to ship to Canada!

[@rasslinjd73]

I think Nordic fusion and bow flex hvt (which you previously raved about) fit in this category and are better than a lot of these. It is pretty frictionless-you just walk up to the machine choose your workout and go. Turn a knob to adjust resistance. Doesn’t get any simpler than that. It’s definitely more cardio than strength training but I think those offer great cardio options.

[@joshgies1869]

Definitely looking forward to the treadmill comparison. Been thinking of getting a "commercial" nordictrack for winter running. My wife and I both do 10-20 miles a week and we have a few friends that use our home gym as well. We have a Sole that is beefy and works good, but really interested in the virtual trails.

[@ApiLive]

Great! And since then, did you manage to try other elliptical?

[@overandover4783]

I love coop’s reviews but the smart fitness stuff isn’t really there yet. This video is a great overview of the smart gym stuff available today though. I sure would like it if you’d expand out and released like a weekly barbell review video and a weekly other equipment/smart gym/buying guide video and maybe a weekly gym tour/industry interview/collab video. And when you talked about the fan effects on the Nordic track bike I immediately thought about captain eo. It’d be straight fire if they had a workout video like you were on that ride with mj.

[@swoleboytroy4061]

Ellipticals are the only ones I recommend to my clients with high blood pressure. Clients w/ HBP, especially during resistance training usually compensate with their lower back.

[@woody1856]

How about reviewing Pilates machines???

[@redbull9554]

Ha! No doubt.

[@JinglesOnJuniper]

I use the Copilot personal trainer app. I've been using it for the last year and a half and it has been amazing. If I didn't have a personal trainer I'd probably have stopped working out 2 or 3 times. He really keeps me motivated!

[@kelseyblackmon676]

You’ve got to look into Oura rings!!! They converted me from whoop and I’m never looking back.

[@skycloud4802]

Your best video yet!

[@pieterhamers2583]

Love the shirt!!!!!! Not a big fan of "smart gym" stuff though, great video nonetheless.

[@reynita-nena1926]

Coop, I love your videos!!! Have you ever thought of perhaps having a review for the aviron??? Would like to hear what your thoughts is on it! 🥺

[@Cab895]

Oh this video gonna blow up

What is your option for A Home elliptical?

[@ShotgunTuck]

Gotta include Zwift!

[@KyleBrandenburg]

I’ve been waiting for a review of programming. This mention of an app was the first I think I’ve heard from this channel. I’d really like to see more programming app reviews. I’d imagine those require a bit more commitment and time in testing.

[@Ranchodeluxe888]

Hey there! I noticed the ergatta rower didnt make it into your recent rower review . Any particular reason why? I just got one and im really enjoying it!

[@Kingsfool]

Boxing on oculus quest 2, super fun way to get in your cardio

[@alvinkan3940]

Hey Coop, can you so a review of the forme life lift?

[@squealer42]

Sweet! Now can we have a "Worst Of ", too ?

[@elizabeth437]

When will you post review of the clmbr or new versa climber TS?

[@rlkinnard]

Most of the time, 8 to 9 months out of the year, I will be running outside 90% of the time, only running inside during the winter. So having the best mill is not that important. But I really want a mill as I will not want to stop cardio for 100 days. And I don't see why I need extra stuff with my mill; i can use my cell.

[@kimchee94112]

Most equipment review here are for lower body workout. Like to see more total gym reviews.

[@CentauriCentauri]

I want that shirt you have on. Can you do a review on that shirt?

[@rkulla]

Whenever I hear "smart" I think "subscription-based". Which is fine but not usually what I want to be locked into for home gym equipment. Otherwise I could pay for a gym subscription and have access to far more equipment.

[@ericmason2917]

Coop’s tech takeover - Winter, 2021

[@avinashtyagi2]

Can you review a Garmin MARQ Athlete Performance Edition?

[@dragoonsquadren1056]

Nordic Track bike seems good at first but isnt. Computer crashes regularly in the middle of rides. Most of those rides weren't on a course following a instructors. They were just turn on and ride on blank track. Also breaks fairly easy. Resistance just stopped working after couple months.

[@freedomfitnessequipment]

I've found Nordic track's quality to suffer over the years unfortunately

[@JoshuaLTRyan]

I still like Garmin for fitness watches.

[@rachellebeitler3158]

I am at a tossup between buying Hydro and tonal. I’m looking for an at home gym, all over full body workout. I wanna lean, I want to tone wondering which one you would recommend, if I could only choose one

[@josephcrust7013]

Do you think tonal will be on sale for black friday?

[@alivideo403]

Nothing beats a good old Power Rack, Barbell, and a set of old rusty Dumbbells.....And if you want Cardio, walk or run in God's open space.

[@user-kc4lh4it8q]

New "smart" gym equipment comes with a ton of plastic and computer parts that can break...would love to see the 5 year reliability scores. I would much rather the Camry version from Concept 2 for my $

[@albertolloret7688]

Yates and Coleman were mainly training with free weights and basic cable exercises and they become world champions ,you don't need that fancy stuff for millioneres to have a great body

[@Jjohnny642]

...or pick up weights, put it down and repeat. Then go for a run/walk. This smart crap is not worth it if you can listen to your body. Not being a Luddite, but you can do way better starting off unless you want to drop 10k

[@abeber87]

You should do a video ranking at home equipment from most-to-least “woke”. I wish I had known before I made some of my purchases. I want to work out and not be force-fed wokism.

[@ISWIMWITHFISH]

Yo yo yo yo!! Looking for. GHD/Reverse Hyper in Canada for a decent price. Would love a leg press toooo!

Have you tried Bells of Steel? They have a ghd/rh combo for about $1000usd. I assume they have one for the Canadian market.

[@hby7768]

Can you do a review on customer service, warranties, and longevity of these machines? You will need to do it incognito so they dont give you special attention or priority. I was really looking into nordictrack but then all these horror stories popup and now i'm not even thinking about "smart" home gyms.

[@couponuser]

I agree. there are numerous bad reviews about Nordictrac. The main complaints are about durability, iFit not loading, and Nordictrac refusing to provide support. Concept 2... read the machines can last for years, possibly decades.

[@couponuser]

On one customer service scoreboard, out of 122 surveys, there are 120 negative comments and only 2 positives.

[@Mervc88]

How about vitruvian?? Cannot get tonal in my country at the moment

[@bobzucker8452]

I have a Tonal and Vitruvian Trainer+ on order. Virturvian should be available in mid January. From what I can tell, Vitruvian is also a great machine, has a 440 lbs max resistance vs 200 on the Tonal, (not that I’ll likely ever max out the Tonal), and is portable as it as wheels. It can’t do downward motions like lat pull downs, although I know they are working on a pulley add on to their bench. I travel to the beach in the summer and plan on packing the Vitruvian in the car and using it there. The Tonal will be bolted to my wall and is not portable. I have demoed a Tonal and was extremely impressed. Haven’t tried the new Vitruvian yet but i expect it’s also quite a machine.

[@Mervc88]

@@bobzucker8452 Thanks for the reply Bob. I was glad that I held off on purchasing the version 1 of the vitruvian as they announced the Trainer+ shortly after. The main drawbacks of a vitruvian will be the lack of a screen and the lack of downward movement which we can do. Unfortunately, based on where I live, that is the only smart resistance based gym equipment available on the market. There is an interesting Kickstarter project called the speediance which is basically a standalone Tonal without the need to bolt to the wall. However, I am apprehensive about spending 1.5k on a Kickstarter project (delays in production, quality of the end product etc).

[@knutbk]

Long time subscriber but feel like you’re in over your britches here. Maybe it’s a lack of experience in these spaces, but you are missing many of the key players in each category. The most glaring is the lack of fitness smart watch players from Garmin, Polar, Coros, etc. In fact, I think Apple’s fitness features are elementary compared to the major players in this space.

[@rodolfomedini9931]

Thank you. VR review please Coop/Mike very interactive, have fitness apps, and cheaper are more versatile than anything you've reviewed... Think about it thank you

[@hyunryu9174]

I'm not that smart, maybe that's why I don't see the point of these equipments. It looks like more of innovative (at best) than smart gym equipment. Putting a big tablet, call them smart, and charge monthly fee sounds like pure marketing scam to me. I, sincerely, hope this is the first step of something good rather than just an attempt to change the dynamic of the gym equipment market.

[@brunobolo5234]

I don't get "smart" fitness machines. If you don't like the exercise without a screen, you're doing the wrong exercise.
