Hey Coop I followed your recommendations when building my home gym 2 years ago. Down 80lbs since then, thanks a lot!
@@ConsiderFirstCnEI am
Keep it up
It may seem that Coop doesn’t care, but he might
Big ups!
Try doing it for yourself and not to try to brag online
As a "baller on a budget" your videos have helped tremendously with making sure I get the best bang for buck on home gym equipment since moving back to the US. Thank you so much.
I got the Titan Single Post Adjustable FID Bench after doing research on different options back in January 2021. It's served me well and is very sturdy. There were some flaws in the manufacturing/ tolerancing that caused some holes to not perfectly align and to have a slight wobble after assembly. The bench is also a bit too long in my opinion, so some overhead stuff is hard to do (5'9'').
Thanks for the overview guys! Lots of options and something for everyone!
I love the grippy texture of the rep benches. Have both the incline and flat bench from them.
I bought the GRIND bench when I started my gym. It's ok for the price. The front foot pad is easily bent and renders the bench very unstable under weight. Thanks to lessons learned from this bench, I now also own an AB 3.0 💪
I really like this segment. You did a really good job on your recommendations.
I just bought an Ironmaster Pro with the pull up bar, decline situp and dip bar attachments and I love it!
AsSAMbly Tip on the Ironmaster SB Pro: Move the footplate with the wheels to the other end and you can stand it up vertically for storage. You also get more room for your feet with the narrower footplate at the seat end.
Bought a prime bench simply due to the lack of inventory of other companies during Covid, and I don’t regret it at all. It’s super solid. Bench press, hip thrusts, sit ups, curls it doesn’t move, wiggle, or anything at all.
I have a commercial life fitness adjustable and a hoist decline ab bench. Im hoping this can replace them
I've had the Inspire SCS adjustable bench for a couple years and it's been great. Has some attachments, good quality, the upholstery is different but I like it.
i have tru grit flat bench, absolutely love it. looking for adjustable bench now. this vid helped. had titan adjustable v2...hated it, sold it, got true grit,and now here we are
Nice review! Would love to see the Torque XFIB mentioned sometime. It's outrageously expensive for a home gym, but it's half the cost of comparable commercial benches from Hammer Strength, Precor, Dynamic, etc.
Coop it’s amazing seeing your videos from 5 years ago and todays videos. It’s so crazy how much you’ve changed 🤝
An also the channel has changed. So cool man.
The Inspire SCS is an amazing versatile bench with Incline, Decline, Wheels, and attachments as extras: Preacher Curl & Leg Extension/Leg Curl.
I have the ethos multi bench and the bells of steel comp bench. Happy with both. Love the videos coop. Keep them coming
Great review, I appreciate the range of products as well!
Such amazing content, thank you!!
…GREAT, GREAT, GREAT review…well analyzed…well produced…I’m not even in the market and enjoyed/appreciated it…ride on, bro…👍
I own a tonal. The iron master really solved a lot of problems for me. Thank you for adding this to your list it’s perfect for me.
Great assortment of benches, would love to see you review the bells of steel adjustable benches though!
Man, my zero gap rep bench is awesome. Love the no gap for comfort, it stands up, and I can do decline stuff on it.
Seems like someone had an extra large cup of coffee before filming lol
I got a new espresso machine. No lie. - Coop
@@GarageGymReviews It's definitely working for you
I always watch on 1.5x too
I saw the Vulcan Prime flat bench in the video a few times and in the background of some other recent videos. I’d actually take that one over the FB-5000 personally. Vulcan doesn’t charge tax so it’s about the same price but is just a sleeker bench and more stable too. I was waiting for that one last year to come back in stock but ended up getting the Rogue Monster.
Love the REP! Do NOT wait to get a bench for your home gym. Essential.
Thanks for validating my action of starting with a fly bird adjustable and upgrading to a REP FB since I mostly use a flat bench
YUP! I think this isn't talked about enough. Start small, upgrade over time! - Coop
Prime adjustable bench is the best bench I have ever owned. Great versatility and light-ish weight for easy maneuverability
I got the REP adjustable bench based on your review. Great bench
Thank you for the great video
The Force USA MyBench - FID Bench with Arm and Leg Curl Attachments is a great bench. It is adjustable and has attachments for preacher curls, leg extensions and lying leg curls. Very versatile
I would like to see some more commercial grade benches thrown in. Example the Life Fitness signature series multi-adjustable bench. It's such a nice bench and a lot of commercial gyms carry it. They also offer a lot of color options for both the pad and frame. Precore's adjustable bench is also really nice. Atlantis Strength Adjustable bench is another one.
I know their expensive, but they are really solid and the fact that you can get different color options with the pad and frame does help.
I use the Yukon adjustable. It works for me and wasn’t super expensive 5 years ago when I got it. I can do heavy dumbbells and it holds up. The adjustments sometimes don’t move too freely but I think I paid around $200 back then.
great content as always! can you guy edit this to add a woosh noise with all of coop's hand movements? that would be gold. thanks!
Would love to see and hear more about stray dog. Their bench looks great. A little pricey but offers customization options.
Starting Strength is waiting for the "wood plank and rusted sheet metal" category
i would love to see something about the best dumbells adjustables, fixed and all the other stuff
also love the content
Thank you for the review, made my decision
Im a big fan of my ironmaster bench, i got it back in 2017 for 300 bucks but noticed they cost a bit more now but it was a great value at the time
Would love a comparison of the PRx Profile Flat Folding Bench and the Rogue Fold Up Utility Bench. I don’t bench very often so my standard Rogue Flat bench takes up more space than it’s worth at times. Would like to know how the fold up benches compare. Thanks for all the great videos.
I never buy anything for my home gym without consulting GGR. Coop is the utmost authority on home gym equipment and his expertise is unmatched
Also I have the grind bench as well as the grind squat rack. Both are great budget options and I’d recommend them both
Btw REP is killing it overall. Rogue has increased their prices so much since the pandemic.
Rep needs to get better with inventory control. They show stuff as in-stock but then say the items are pre-ordered. I am waiting on a couple pieces of gear and have been for awhile.
For sure. Benches are where they shine.
@@chaosdisciple3052 And Power Racks
@@avinashtyagi2 I've been browsing their racks for about two years. Not once have all the pieces I want been in stock. Granted I'm not checking everyday, but still...
Everyone has increased prices a lot. Rogue isn't the only one.
Coop, nice review, obviously, benches are a very popular and personal topic. After spending a lot of money on Amazon and getting rid of the equipment, I am now brand loyal to Rogue with the exception of the bench, a Hoist HF-5165 F.I.D., $550, with the preacher curl attachment, another $160, both were a significant upgrade from what I had. Have you ever reviewed or looked at Hoist HF-5165 7 position bench?
I got the iron master super bench pro. Best bet for a small gym. Small footprint. Very versatile
It is good for short people below 5'10.
I have the rep fitness AB 3100 and i truley love it.. i was able to get it about $199 brand new about 7 months ago and for the price its the best i have ever tried
“Componentry” - Coop’s reviews are so good, he’s expanding the English language now!
Great channel!
I bought the trugrit flat bench 2 weeks ago and it is Great! No regrets, highly recommend
Thank you honestly exactly the info I wanted some stuff just cost too much
Digging the Kings Kaleidoscope shirt! Not many people I know have heard of them. lol I love em!
Would like a video on column benches vs ladder style benches. Also, I think you missed out on some adjustable benches that have attachments like preacher curls, leg curls, pec flys that ATX benches can do
Coop! Great vid. What about the Pro Form adjustable bench? Looks sturdy AF and for $200 it looks to be a killer deal
I have the Titan single post competition flat bench. Titan has so many sales that anyone should be able to get it for about $140 if they are patient. It’s a tripod design, has a handle, and stands up.
The Titan fitness single post adjustable bench seems like a pretty good bench in my opinion! I've used this bench for a little while now and it seems to be holding up just fine. I don't know if this would be something that you would be interested in reveiwing, but it would be most appreciated if you did, Thanks!
Just a heads up for anyone that needs to know - Best Buy is selling the Tru Grit flat bench today (8/1) for only $50. Hope y’all are able to grab one!
Great breakdown.
Thank you!
Hey Coop! Could you and your team do a review of bench pads from the different companies specifically Rep vs. Rogue detailing the padding, thickness, grip, etc.? That would be helpful in making a bench purchase decision! Is the Rogue Fat Pad or FB-5000 wide pad a better choice?
1:07 1 minute in but i'm appreciating the energy, the jokes, and the bright orange shorts 😁👍
i started with a few pieces of equipment last year and was doing good (simple barbell setup, a bike, dumbells, exercise bands and a pullup bar i never installed.). then fam health issues, then more recently a stupid medication that blew out my progress and set me back 30+. losing my mind on that.
anyways, off the med, starting over. got a few more items for garage gym. (climbing rope, olympic rings, and installed pullup bar). figured a bench would be the next best really useful thing. DON'T WANNA GET SOMETHING THAT CAN COLLAPSE. i read some concerning reviews on amazon, about parts failure. don't wanna do *cheap over SAFE* despite good reviews. and amazon's star system and reviews is all fukked to hell anyway.
so, i'm glad to see a real review. and i'm having nostalgia because i definitely saw this channel back when i was starting out and the reviews were SO friggin helpful.
I have been using bowflex bench for 5 years. Still feels new. Great video btw.
Love my FB 5000 with wide pad. One of my favorite home gym investments. Adj. the AB 3000 is very solid as well. I might have upgraded that if I were to buy it today, but it was my first bench and honestly I think it's good enough to not bother upgrading.
I love my FB 5000, but hated my AB 3000 i ended up returning it and eating all the fees.
Would you say the AB-5000 is the best Rep adjustable bench?
I have the Prime Fitness Adjustable Bench and can’t say enough about it. LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!! Arm curl pads are so genius and work awesome as a foot stop during seated rowing in addition to their intended use. The decline attachment is so valuable to me but its handle, on mine, mounts perpendicular which I love and seems way better. Coop must have an older model??? The entire bench with both the arm curl pads and decline is industrial gym quality with zero doubt. The pad is dense, durable, deceptive and comfortable.
How are you using the pads as a foot stop?
Thanks!
Great video Coop!
I have heard from a few friends that the RitFit Foldable Weight Bench AWB-800, is a great bench.
I'm curious to hear your thoughts.
My WS custom bench is hard to beat 😝
Coop you really need to check out the Elitefts Scholastic Dumbbell bolt together Bench with the Black Gripper pad. That thing has the best pad with the most grip out there. I’ve had mine since 2016 and it’s held up like a tank.
Do you think you could do a best all in one bench?
For example like a bench that has incline, decline, leg attachments for extensions and leg curls, etc.
The first bench(crapola) was $200 reg price, so the rep ($209) would still be the better choice for best flat bench over all!!
Yeah, that recommendation doesn't hold up now that the bench has increased in price. The Grind bench looks like the best budget one at this point, looks to be just as good as the Tru Grit and it's still only $100.
REP is killing it 🔥🔥🔥
I would love to see a full review on the Flybird since you have one, I have extremely limited space so it's been on my list as it folds away nicely but I know that means fail points and instability.
I’ve had my rep ab4100 for about a year and I don’t regret it at all
Really feel an adjustable bench should be the best overall...very few people will be happy for very long with just a flat bench. The AB4100 was a good choice. I was pleasantly surprised to see the Ironmaster in here, it's a very solid do-it-all bench. I really like mine, there's really nothing else out there that can do as much.
Exactly. No adjust. No buy.
So true
Surprised Prime wasnt the winner
Two years with my REP AB-3000 FID and going strong.
Same with me. I use the decline feature a lot more than I thought that I would when I bought the bench.
I have bought the wide rep branch and the rep 3000 adjustable…love all my rep gear..top notch and decent prices.
I have a REP fb-4000 and an incline bench by hoist that has an attachment for plate loaded leg extension/leg curls. I love the hoist bench and use it all the time for legs and incline exercises. The only complaint I have about it is that I'm 5'7" and as a flat bench it is higher than regulation for bench press which makes it a bit too high for me to comfortably use for that exercise.
It has a preacher curl attachment too, which I have but I never use it.
Would love to get your thoughts on the hoist bench with the attachments.
The Abmat pylo box in the background, again! I’m a big fan of my Vulcan soft cube pylo box.
I have the rep fb4000 and it’s plenty of bench for a home gym. I’ll be getting the ab4100 from Santa this year
I bought an adjustable bench from a company in the UK called Mirafit. For the price, it's incredible. Does exactly what it says on the tin!
I have the Rogan 3.0 and really enjoy it. I like that it's heavy. I'm thinking about getting a Titan hefty pad flat bench. I've worked out with one and really enjoyed it too.
This is a great idea.
I could not stop watching this. I love Rep Fitness but never considered their benches before. I’m actually going to replace my Fringesport flat bench for the Rep. And I wasn’t even looking for a flat bench….
Getrx FIDAB-2 is similar to the REP5200 but with some additional perks and tighter side to side movement
I went with Rep AB 3100 after seeing a lot of positive reviews on TH-cam.
I love the grippy pad and esthetic of the bench.
But you definitely feel how light weight it is, and just doesn’t seem that high quality.
Should’ve went 4100..
Yeah the thing that kills me is the little rubber things that just fall off. All. The. Time.
At 11:00 minutes; my mother told me the same thing. 😂 You couldn't have said it better.
What about the Hoist Fitness adjustable bench? I love mine! Nice finish. Wheels. Interchangeable attachments for foot rest/leg extensions and leg curls, super high weight capacity, really stable, beautiful leather and soft comfortable padding…I LOVE mine. Would love to know how you think it stacks up against the competition. Thanks Coop & GGR!
Hey, Coop. Thoughts on the AB-3000, Titan Single-Post FID, and Titan Max FID? Or is there a decline-equipped budget option you'd recommend over these?
Great review. Please do the review of the Force USA G20.
Went with the Rep 3100 a week ago..glad to see it make an appearance!
Man Coop is such an entertaining fella
I'd like to hear more about the vulcan incline/decline adjustable bench 2.0 in a future video.
COOP! We need a review of the Bells of Steel Buzz Saw 2.0 with attachments
Like to see a refresh on the Iron Master V2 to see if the changes would move this bench. Looking for a good adjustable to match with the tonal. I need the versatility with pull up and dip station but lean toward the Rep 4100 from quality build look.
Hey Coop this just came out. But have you ever tried or seen the nordic weight bench from the tib bar guy, that's made to do nordic curls at any level? Looks like a really cool bench kinda similar to the flybird ish, but more versatile for ATG training..
Hi Coop thanks for all the great videos. Question for you and your subs. Do you think a flat bench is a necessity? When I started working out at home I bought an adjustable Bowflex 5.1 second hand which was a great deal but it has some limitations. I plan on upgrading the Bowflex eventually. Do you think a high end adjustable bench can replace a flat bench? Thanks
Forceusa mybench! Thinking of buying it as a secondary bench for leg workouts
Hey Coop! Would really like to see what you think of the REP AB-3000 2.0 FID adjustable bench. They've added the leg rollers, but has a pin adjust which I don't really like. I'm leaning towards the 4100, but really like that leg roller.
I have the older model Ironmaster bench which requires a "step" or plyometeric box at the end for my feet as it's too high. My feet are on it's tippy toes when benching without the box. I'm 5'10" with 30 inseam. The attachments are wobbly and not tight but not a deal breaker.
Hey Coop. Any chance to see some ideas for HVAC in your garage gym? Maybe some prehab tools?
BTW coop will you do reviews on adjustable squat boxes and wedges
I have a bells of steel hero bench, so-so overall. Love the stability, needs a tweak to the foam on the top surface for a bit more “out of the box” use. Even a few millimeters of compression would be preferred in my opinion. Overall 85%
Just curious did you look or ever review the Force USA benches? I have been thinking of eventually starting a home gym with either the g15 or g20 in the future, but not too sure about their benches especially the FID bench not the commercial fid bench, as I like the addition of the leg curl/extension and preacher stuff.
Before I really started paying attention to your channel I had bought the Get RXd FIDAB-2 ADJUSTABLE BENCH. I like it... But, if I could do it over I pry would have went with the Prime Fitness bench you mentioned.
