Many thanks to this channel for testing so many products that get less visibility by other gym equipment reviewers. When I first saw Hybrid Resistance's review for the Quantum Trainer I was sold of the piece as it looked amazing. So I found the Quantum Trainer website to place an order but has some concerns about the legitimacy of the website due to its "no-frills" design. So, with that, I had some hesitation to buy one. Hybrid Resistance saw my comments on the video and within 24 hours, the owner Glenn reached out to me and provided the single best customer service experience I ever had with purchasing a piece of gym equipment...and I've been doing this for 30 years. While Glen's customer service was above and beyond anything I had previously, I can also say this piece of equipment is amazing!! It allows for so much "controlled" range of motion that, 1 month later" I am still discovering ways to do every day exercises that work for MY body type. After benching with 25 years of shoulder pain, I am now cranking out reps with nothing short of delight. The one take away I would give to someone looking at this piece is that the way the arms move and the simplicity of the machine's operation, you can tailor the angles and positions of the arms for the exercise you are doing to work with YOUR body type. To me, this is the genius of this piece...I do bench press with no shoulder pain, I squat with no back or knee pain, and I do rows that hit every angle of my back with a mere change in body position. As for cost, this is in the realm of Rogue quality but designed to be very simply to put together and move. Not Rogue :) That attachments and bench that are included would normally run well over the $1,000 area on other major retailers, so keep that in mind when you are deciding. And trust me, the bench is pretty darn good. It replaced my Powertec bench. Anyway...many, many thanks for Hybrid Resistance for reviewing this piece and Glenn at Quantum Trainer for the amazing customer service and piece of gym equipment.
Landmine fitting, Oly bar, viking press and T-bar handle, strong sawhorse plus a bit of imagination… Almost the same utility, for a lot less money, and packs away much better.
Looks like a good machine . It seems to me though that the real impediment to taking this out to the park is the need to also carry out all the plates to the park. If they could have an electronic resistance feature it could broaden the appeal of this piece. Good review!
Thanks so much William. I don't really think most people will actually bring it to the park, I just shot it outside for the sake of the video to showcase the outdoor feature. I think the outdoor nature the machine is for people who might set it up either permanently or from time to time in their backyard. I actually get this question all the time from people asking if certain equipment can be left outside. I know during summer, I'll for sure just have this set up in my backyard for some occasional outdoor workouts.
I don't know about the price for a wood design, but you could make that argument with pretty much any squat rack as well. So I'd say the same argument why someone wouldn't just build a squat rack vs pay for an expensive rack would apply here as well.
@@hybridresistance A couple jammer arms with two-plane hinges that have come out I saw recently on a rack would be cheaper to about the same price, but with much more built in variety. The point of a simple design should also reflect in the price. Two thirds of the price of this Quantum Trainer seems to be in the 80% of metal framing that is the foundation. Just extrapolate that framing into a $100-200 half-rack and you've got a more affordable home system that more people would buy. This is a massive oversight that will lead to poor sales. 1) ISO Arms DIY Jammer Lever Arms | Home Gym Power Rack Attachment 2) The Ultimate Jammer Arms Build! Vendetta, GymPin, Rogue Fitness & More 3) Jammer arm adapter = better range of motion = now available! These three are right off the rip. It's 2024 and you can't hide from the highly available competition without clearly perceived benefits in features; no half measures or "might sorta be ok...but limited". I guess the mobility aspect is nice, but who's going to want to lug all the weights along with it for an "impromptu outdoor private class" or something? Hell, that gives me an idea for mobile anchoring system for the home made version. But that's a secret for now~ 😉
Just received mine in the UK this week! Unreal bit of kit. I’ve tried lever gyms like the powertec and bodysolid versions and this blows them away. In the UK we are limited on space so to have this unrivalled functionality and versatility is unbelievable. A must for any garage/home gym owner 💪🏻
@@hybridresistance no problem, glad to see a detailed review as think when this gets the right exposure it’ll blow up. Agree on the hard plastic handles, i guess it’s for durability over materials that can wear easily but a nice knurling upgrade would be welcome.
@@iang8169 can do loads more exercises, the arms move independently freely not fixed like powertec levergym, so you can do flys, lateral raises etc. Also a lot more heavy duty being 11 gauge and is built like a tank
Looks amazing but the price is tough to swallow. I guess if I was very limited on space I'd consider it, but it's competing on price with the digital gyms like Oxefit (think Oxe is a bit more but when you add the lat pulldown piece it will be closer). If you don't need the portability it might be a tough sell for the space saving crowd at this price point. Hell, the powertec is better on price and despite not being commercial grade, is rated for the same capacity. It does require more space though.
This is way different to a rack with jammer arms attached, there’s literally tonnes of movements you couldn’t do with that set up that this machine provides. The QT is in a league of its own from a functionality and versatility standpoint. Anyone just viewing this by TH-cam isn’t experiencing what it actually is, what it can do and is really hard to compare it without actually feeling it for yourself. I have this combined with a rack, smith, cables etc and it just takes training to a whole different level. Anyone who loves machine training will adore this.
I got to agree with the commenter here. It's a very different product / feel comparing it to jammer arms. I can see where at first glance you can make that comparison, but it really is a different animal. I'll be putting out more videos showcasing more of these differences so I appreciate these comments.
Wow, do you know what kind of free weight apparatus I can get for 3000 dollars. This machine is a waste of money and time. 3k can go a long way in a free weight gym. What a waste.
I remember you using a grip mat for the sliding board on your total gym. I can't find that video anymore. Can you direct me to where you purchased that gripping mat, please? I found 75 lbs resistance bands for my Gr8flex. The issue is that with 6 bands "450 lbs" I slide off the board. With lower weight, I can just hold the bottom of the board, but with more weight it's kinds of tougher. My arms and shoulders seem to get a better work out from holding the bottom of the board when using more weight.
this is really cool, the distinction about it not being a “levergym” seems silly and makes me think the guy who made the machine is being overly sensitive
He was fine with it and didn't care that I was originally going to call this video "another lever gym". But for sure a comparison video will be in order at some point.
Very cool, time will tell if it can compete at the price. The one thing I was hoping is that the back where the lever connects - I was hoping the height could be adjusted. Anyways, free move arms is definitely nice!
This looks like the perfect piece of equipment for high intensity workouts (I.e., Naturally Intense program). Great review, looks like a lot of work went into this one 💯
I told the owner the price is the biggest obstacle, but once I got to know more of the parts / cost of the unit (not to mention shipping costs), I think it's fair for the build quality. Also think that based on his patents, you probably won't see this on amazon with their strict patent infringement policy. But I totally understand where you're coming from. Actually got another review from the Syedee company coming soon.
Is $3k really too expensive for a piece of equipment with this level of versatility and build quality? I'm frugal af, but $3k to squat, bench, deadlift, landmine press, belt squat, and practically any other movement you can imagine is a pretty solid deal to me. The footprint looks solid, the assembly and disassembly time is actually unmatched, and it's built like a tank. Where else can you find anything like this for cheaper than $3k?
@@hybridresistance a nice machine, but it is a knock off/alternative design of a sorinex hurricane. I don't think other companies will have any issues copying this/hurricane because it's really just 2 landmines with handles and a stand
@@l0rd0f0xygen Based on what I heard and learned from the owner Glen, the sorinex came after his first machine "the limitless trainer", I think that's what it was called.
Definitely the cost is the prime obstacle. To Glen's (the owner's point) even just from a commercial setting point of view, people are paying way more for a much less versatile machine.
For $3,000, this is a budget friendly price and last for a lifetime. You can use this equipment for bodybuilding competition prep at the comfort of your own home, or just simply building for a healthier lifestyle. 👍
I agree with you but I got a bias. They could price this down and not include shipping and it might seem more attractable to people. There's popular racks/machines that are priced at under 1k but then there's another $500 shipping on top of that.
That’s the name right there. After this comment I had to see if I could do the jammer and unfortunately it’s not doable without a longer arm. That was one of my favorite hammer strengths.
I totally hear you and pushed back a little bit with my recent update. I do think there are some novel differences, but I am looking to compare this to a decent jammer are set up. Feel free to let me know of one you'd like to see it.
Watson actually copied the QT I think you’ll find and it also has an inferior design too. This type of machine has been around since late 2017 / early 2018 when they released the Limitless Trainer. So probably anything you’ve seen has been designed by QT/LT or is a knockoff of Quantum or Limitless trainer.
Thanks Mike, let me know what machines or specific Watson machine you're talking about. As just based on their website, I see a bunch of stand alone lever machines, but nothing like this one. I also can't compare the price seeing that they're requesting quotes for price.
@@hybridresistance The plate loaded multi trainer is dam close. I’m sure patient wise they weren’t the first. I have seen a few others all on the same principle. Not knocking any of them.
@@powerplanthomegym THIS IDEA HAS BEEN OUT THERE MUCH LONGER! Sorinex built the Hurricane long ago. The arms aren’t straight but same principle. I saw one in a gym decades ago that was made in Germany in the 70s. I’m sure a patient search will go way back!
This video I go over my favorite exercises on the machine and there's "arms" section in there where you'll see some bicep stuff th-cam.com/video/fShUI8STMN0/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for the video! looks like a small footprint for a total body home gym. Also wouldn't need dumbbells if storage space is a concern. Have some plates around and you can pretty much do anything. Will definitely check out and see what the lat pulldown attachment and leg curl, extension attachment bring to this machine! Thanks again!
If I compare it to the one I have, it's much better and does feel commercial quality with the metal work. Not to mention, you can leave this one outside.
Im buying this. I was going to the IM200 with all the attachments and it comes out to about the same but this is easy to set up and I can use it outside too.
You are very mistaken, as this machines very under-hyped, and tbh needs more exposure like this as if everyone got to experience it it’ll be everywhere.
Definitely. I think I through a quick shot of that in the video. I know the owner made the limitless trainer first which I believe may have influenced these types of machines.
You can get creative, even without the pull-down attachment. I do dips, tricep extension like using a DB, kickback and skullcrushers. Anything you can think of with a DB you can do. Then with the lat attachment it’ll have every movement patten covered. Hope this helps 😎
This is true and I don't want to make excuses for the machine, but it's just one of those inherent pros/cons of the equipment. Having them vertically loaded allows a little bit more freedom of movement and just feels natural given what the machine does. Something I didn't cover that you'll want a weight plate that has space for handles as my "Strength Co" weights can be so tight together that they're a pain to take off unless I put a spacer weight in-between. I had the same issues with my vertical leg press.
That is a good point. I got this other thing I didn’t rig yet but I think I could do hip thrusts on it. The other commenter addressed the load and I can agree it feels heavier compared to my lever gym.
@hybridresistance the gym I go to has things like Chest Press maxout at 300-350 lbs, considering this 220 lbs per arm, then that is better. But compared to squat rack, it probably won't do as much. So it does have its strengths, which is these independent swinging arms. The pad if designed could just go over the bar attachment you had. So it wouldn't need another attachment. Heck a pool noodle cut may help. But if you want duo pads for squat, that would be another attachment, maybe. You could Calf raises too!
The universe couldn’t have chose a better person to speak on this machine. Very cool. Edit: didn’t realize the spotter arms were adjustable I was so confused. Makes total sense for the center post. Edit2: that lat pull down attachment looks gnarly to load for strong guys having to put 45 lb plates that high. I could probably use a plyobox to get that high to load it but probably won’t get the chance to try one of these in a million years. 💸 Can you do the vertical leg press motion while lying on the ground with the squat bar attachment?
I have this machine and yes it is possible to do leg press from the floor, also I think the lat attachment is having a redesign with angled weight horns either side to address this.
Thanks for that comment! Showing me I should have clarified that more with the posts. With the lat pull down, I said the same thing to the owner that it looked big and hard to load without standing on something. He told me basically it’s all good and both won’t be a problem. I’m supposed to get tomorrow so I’ll keep you posted. Thanks again!
@@hybridresistance it’s a lot of detail to go over in 1 video, but I think you covered it well bud ☺️ I think the lat attachment will really make this machine in a league on its own. I see a few people complaining about price, but considering the quality and how many machines it replicates I think it’s bit of a bargain personally.
Love your review bro...but can we stick more on budget equipment? Especially here in Asia where US dollars so expensive...thank you for your kind consideration

@hybridresistance Rack machine is cater to more Crossfit athletes. Your equipment is for muti used and can cater to all fitness levels and styles.
It looks the same as any leverage arm on a rack. Is there any difference between this vs leverage arms?
I just sent you a comment on another video with recent videos that I got into with this
Glad you got your hands on this one, great versatility and looks badass, simple and strong construction too so will last a lifetime
Thanks for the suggestion and for watching brother!
Looks awesome but it does have a big price tag. Could definitely be better than a leverage gym in versatility and assembly.
This is coming to Home Gym Cpn next weekend I believe. Not something I necessarily have space for but I want to try it out.
I'll just stick to the good old penitentiary routines I learned being troubled youth, they keep a fella riot ready.

So do you start your squat from the bottom position?
Yes, you would have to on this
?
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
👍👍👍👍💪💪💪
Is possible adjust this machine to have for all workouts with neutral grip like bench shoulder press and row for joints frendly?
Yes, with all the grip / attachment options that is possible.
Thank you for the video! looks like a small footprint for a total body home gym. Also wouldn't need dumbbells if storage space is a concern. Have some plates around and you can pretty much do anything. Will definitely check out and see what the lat pulldown attachment and leg curl, extension attachment bring to this machine! Thanks again!
Thanks man. Once I get the other attachments in, I'll make sure and give an update soon.
Nonsense.
A couple of dumbells/barbells and plates would be more than enough. Keep it simple.
Of course that works too. But there are obviously many reasons someone would want to use other equipment and not be dogmatic with their training.
I guess the biggest alternative would be a set of lever arms if you already own a rack?
I'm going to be testing that out in the near future, but that seems to be the consensus.
jammer arms stand-along version
How from a durability point does this compare to the leverage machine.?
If I compare it to the one I have, it's much better and does feel commercial quality with the metal work. Not to mention, you can leave this one outside.
Im buying this. I was going to the IM200 with all the attachments and it comes out to about the same but this is easy to set up and I can use it outside too.
@@joseppebatman awesome to hear, brother. Let me know how you like it.
Can connect two jammer for bench press and other exercises or only for squats?
I might be missing this question, but regardless do a typical "jammer press" facing away actually doesn't workout too well.
I’m really interested. I have to get rid of a few things though to make space though.
Thanks. Let me know if you got questions on it.
I want one for Christmas 😅
You never know Vince....
I have the original quantum pro.My biggest downside are the handles and I wish it had the same nuts/bolts like the newer one
Have a word with them, I’ve seen a Pro1 with the new style handles on. I believe they fit the same so see if you can get a set. Hope this helps 👍🏻
Just to get a general idea of how big it is, how tall are you mate if you don't mind me asking?
I'm 6 foot and about 215lbs.
Looks like a big overhyped pile of $#*+
You are very mistaken, as this machines very under-hyped, and tbh needs more exposure like this as if everyone got to experience it it’ll be everywhere.
Wow...will be some retailers in Europe?
I'm not sure, but if you contact Glen over at his site I'm sure he'll let you know. I know they sell well over in Europe
Looks a lot like a Sornix Hurricane
Definitely. I think I through a quick shot of that in the video. I know the owner made the limitless trainer first which I believe may have influenced these types of machines.
It looks fantastic but my only concern would be the lack of exercises for the triceps.
You can get creative, even without the pull-down attachment. I do dips, tricep extension like using a DB, kickback and skullcrushers. Anything you can think of with a DB you can do. Then with the lat attachment it’ll have every movement patten covered. Hope this helps 😎
Yes, there is another attachment coming out soon. You can see a prototype of it here in this video th-cam.com/video/d4X6S-qolrg/w-d-xo.html
Nope not for me to much money
Appreciate that honest feedback that definitely helps
having weights stacked vertically is going to be a pain to load and unload.
This is true and I don't want to make excuses for the machine, but it's just one of those inherent pros/cons of the equipment. Having them vertically loaded allows a little bit more freedom of movement and just feels natural given what the machine does. Something I didn't cover that you'll want a weight plate that has space for handles as my "Strength Co" weights can be so tight together that they're a pain to take off unless I put a spacer weight in-between. I had the same issues with my vertical leg press.
I have it and the only time it's a little bit annoying it's while squatting. That all . Most of the time it's very smooth
Maybe a duo pad / single pad attachment for those squats / hip thrust.
How much weight can this hold ?
100kg each arm, but it seems to get heavy quick compared to a normal lever gym
That is a good point. I got this other thing I didn’t rig yet but I think I could do hip thrusts on it. The other commenter addressed the load and I can agree it feels heavier compared to my lever gym.
@hybridresistance the gym I go to has things like Chest Press maxout at 300-350 lbs, considering this 220 lbs per arm, then that is better. But compared to squat rack, it probably won't do as much. So it does have its strengths, which is these independent swinging arms.
The pad if designed could just go over the bar attachment you had. So it wouldn't need another attachment. Heck a pool noodle cut may help. But if you want duo pads for squat, that would be another attachment, maybe. You could Calf raises too!
Thanks for sharing!!!
Thanks Lamar.
The universe couldn’t have chose a better person to speak on this machine. Very cool.
Edit: didn’t realize the spotter arms were adjustable I was so confused. Makes total sense for the center post.
Edit2: that lat pull down attachment looks gnarly to load for strong guys having to put 45 lb plates that high. I could probably use a plyobox to get that high to load it but probably won’t get the chance to try one of these in a million years. 💸
Can you do the vertical leg press motion while lying on the ground with the squat bar attachment?
I have this machine and yes it is possible to do leg press from the floor, also I think the lat attachment is having a redesign with angled weight horns either side to address this.
@@powerplanthomegym thank you! I’m going to have my eye on this machine until I can one day afford it
@@jaleesa00 you won’t be disappointed!
Thanks for that comment! Showing me I should have clarified that more with the posts. With the lat pull down, I said the same thing to the owner that it looked big and hard to load without standing on something. He told me basically it’s all good and both won’t be a problem. I’m supposed to get tomorrow so I’ll keep you posted. Thanks again!
@@hybridresistance it’s a lot of detail to go over in 1 video, but I think you covered it well bud ☺️ I think the lat attachment will really make this machine in a league on its own. I see a few people complaining about price, but considering the quality and how many machines it replicates I think it’s bit of a bargain personally.
Love your review bro...but can we stick more on budget equipment? Especially here in Asia where US dollars so expensive...thank you for your kind consideration
