This channel deserves 100 times more subscribers. Thank you for taking the time to review all these products and helping others make a more informed decision. I would totally buy myself one of those dumbbell stands if they were still for sale
wow what a great gym! I also have the titan reverse hyper built like a tank after 41 years of back pain I am so glad and thankful to have it. Tomorrow I get the T-2 rack. Again what a great gym you have put together
Excellent reviews! I have a lot of equipment from Titan over the years as well. Very good bang for buck although some pieces like you mention do have their issues.
Good information thanks. For rear delt flys, on my Titan PLATE-LOADED FLY MACHINE, I didn't want to drill a hole and I was too big to fit comfortably against the pad, so I just sit sideways and do one side at a time, or put the pin on the outside of the cam to get that fuller range of motion.
Thanks so much! I was worried about breaking those pull knobs bc on my machine, the black plastic piece sits directly against (basically rubbing) the upper, inside frame.
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews Yea, one of those pins arrived broken during shipping. It took Titan a month to send a replacement. You definitely don't want to break one.
That is a lot of pressure! 🤣 I would recommend trying one out first. I have friends who hate the machine. Also, did you get the economy version? I’ve never used that one...the “deluxe “ model is out of stock.
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews Pressure is on! I better rank this in my top 3 haha but I got the economy off scratch n dent since I noticed it this morning. I know yours is the beefier one, but if its not for me I can always sell it 😉.
I hope you like it! Let me know what you think when you get it. It might be a while...Titan’s shipping has slowed down drastically. I got a shipping notification for a replacement dip machine 7 days ago, but it hasn’t left the warehouse.
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews Damn Titan lol we need our goods Im pretty much done with my gym (I was looking for something to use my 1400 rewards points I had just sitting there on) so I pretty much got it for 300 so why not. If anything it looks like an awesome table and place to put stuff on lol. Maybe its will be a game changer though 😉
Awesome! I love it and you can’t beat it for the price. Interesting the preacher curl combo is your favorite. I’ve never used it, but some reviews say you can’t get a full ROM at the top of the bicep curl because the frame gets in the way. Do you have that problem?
I'm a big fan of Titan. I have two sets of the dumbbell stands for my PowerBlocks (90 lb. set and 50 lb. set). It is so great to be able to step in between the dumbbells. I also have a seated calf machine, safety squat bar, and squat roller (for Bulgarian squats).
@@Antonio-kx5rd it certainly makes having a review channel a lot easier. Since this video, I had to put equipment in two different bedrooms to keep the channel going.
Good content mate, hope your channel grows Can you adjust those dumbbell stands around your bench when doing presses? Ironmaster have a spotting saddles for their super bench for example, allows to do all types of presses without compromising your back/shoulders getting into a pressing position, your bodyweight weighing down the bench holds the saddles in position. Only reason I'm considering their bench as a future purchase, so yeah, not sure if it'll be worth it or not as Powertec and ATX have far better attachments for their benches
Thank you! I’ve never tried to do that, but the stand adjusts horizontally and vertically, so it may work. I am not the biggest fan of the Powertec Bench for pressing movements, but it is awesome for all of the attachments that can be used. I really liked the preacher curl, leg ext / leg curl, and dip attachments when I had them. The fly was pretty good, but lacked resistance throughout the full ROM. The leg press attachment wasn’t good for me (luckily a friend gave it to me because he didn’t like it either). Good luck with your bench choice. Thanks again!
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews definitely a good idea for what you use them for already. Nothing worse than regularly picking up a heavy dumbbell off the floor or off the bottom shelf of a rack 45-55 pounders I'm ok with as that's the same weight as what you'd pick up with the plates we use. But 70 pounds plus I get a bit wary of as I have had back issues over the years (nothing from gym though) One of the reasons why I went Ironmasters for heavy, the stand the dumbbell sits on is at a nice height, so not a lot of effort required to pick them up as it's close to our centre of gravity (high quad/hip area). Rubber hex dumbbells for lighter accessory exercises.
I’m with you! Getting heavy dumbbells off the floor into position is an injury waiting to happen. One of my worst tweaks of all time was getting the 100s off the floor and into position for a flat press. I was on vacation and training at a gym on a bench I’d never used and basically ruined the rest of my vacation as I nursed my body back to health.
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews :( I remember the first few weeks last year once I got my Ironmasters (120lb kit) and started doing 80-100lb flat presses, my glutes for some reason were bothering me in the days afterwards. Turns out I was kinda box squatting after every set as I don't dump my weights after every set.
Thank you for showing different variations. I don't have much space to work with so versatility is key for me. Any opinion on the belt squat machine? I am looking to squat more while also giving my lower back some rest but I have never tried one before.
You’re welcome! Big fan of the belt squat. The stand-alone machines are pretty expensive. Titan has the least expensive at $600. Bells of Steel is the next least expensive option. After that, you are looking at 1k plus for Squat Max, Rogue, etc. If space is an issue, the loading pin, boxes, and belt squat belt might be your best option.
Yeah, this is a hobby I’ve had for many years. Plus, I really don’t like public gyms 🤣 Removing that piece definitely makes transitioning between the two exercises faster.
My dilemma is I have an opportunity to buy a selector weight abductor only machine and adductor only machine but it be about $1200 and if we take up a lot more room than just one machine and I have about 1200 pounds worth of weight plates. So the selector doesn’t interest me.
@@ironkingdom3194 selector is likely going to be better if it’s commercial-grade and much much easier and faster to load and change weights. Either way, the two or even one will take up a lot of room and I’d have to really like that exercise a lot to dedicate that much space to an exercise or two.
You’re not the first person to say that. There are so many people who don’t like Reverse Hypers / HPNDs, for example, Basement Brandon sold his because he wasn’t using it enough. I don’t really use it as a strength movement, for example, I don’t do 3 sets of 10 at an RPE of 8 or 9. I just use it as a warm up / cool down (light weight and high reps) and it makes my back feel amazing. Although, I would definitely recommend trying one before buying one.
Thank you for sharing. I was very surprised by your #1 selection. Have you experienced a back injury? You've mentioned not loading your spine multiple times
You’re welcome! Thanks for watching! As for my back, nothing too serious, but I have to be careful. Like you, I had a feeling a few people would be surprised by my #1.
I have the X3 squat stand, with safety arms, roller cups. SSB, 9 bar vertical bar storage, standard trap bar. Titan 1.25's change plates. Landmine (that inserts into plates) Had and sold the Atlas barbell during Covid. Everything is 5 stars for price to quality. The safety arms I'd probably give 4 stars.
That's a badass gym. I have the Titan x-3 power rack, Titan back extension, titan multi-grip bar, titan 20" dumbbell handles, Titan adjustable step, Titan Tibia Dorsi calf machine, Titan 30 lb. slam ball, Titan y-dip bar, Titan Linebacker, Titan Landmine Stand, Titan Single Post Competition Flat Bench, Titan Mini Bar Jack, Titan Roller J-Hooks, Titan x-3 safety Straps, Titan Glute Ham Glider, and Titan 15 lb. Steel Club. I''m probably missing a few things, but you can see I'm a fellow fan of Titan as well.
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews Thank you. I also have a Cable Crossover, Vertical Leg Press Machine, High/low Pulley Machine. The only thing I feel I'm missing is a Pec Dec! Keep up the great videos!
TITAN FITNESS Shipping / Packing absolutely SUCKS ASS. You will receive your item scratched beyond belief, missing parts, torn and ripped pads, etc. Simply because the packing was done by a toddler who used only his butthole to pack and pad the item before putting it in a cheap-ass thin-walled box with absolutely nothing to keep said box together. When you call them, they act 100% surprised. You get what you pay for . . . BARELY, just barely.
It sounds like you’ve had some really bad experiences with Titan. I have been more fortunate. In my stand-alone reviews for Titan, I show how everything arrives and is packed and 90% of the time, I am happy. However, I have had a couple bad experiences. Once, I was sent a trap bar without any packing…just a shipping label on the bar. Another time, it took me 3 tries to get the correct handles for a machine. I will say, Titan has always made the situation right, even though it may have taken a couple of times and tries.
You’re right! Maybe it was gone, but now back (although not “in-stock”). I’ll try to help answer your question: there is 6.5” x 16.5” of usable shelf space (the edges are raised).
Do you have the hip adduction/ abduction Titan Fitness machine? I've been thinking about purchasing it, but can't find any good reviews on it yet. Great video bro!
Thank you! No…I don’t have any plans to get it. I wish I could tell you if the machine is worth it or not, but without having tried it, I don’t want to say one way or the other.
I added the sissy squat to my home gym and omg with out using added weight and not going to complete lock out it makes me want to cry when my sets are done.... A PLUS
How did you remove the stop pin on the Titan seated leg Curl? It really is annoying as hell to unload the weight just to switch from leg curl to leg extension.
I’ve had it off for 2 months and like it better off. I can get a greater ROM and switch exercises faster. Just make sure the machine is on the leg Extension setting when you want to remove the plates.
So, how was your delivery and customer support experience for all these deliveries? Looking online, Titan gets some real bad reviews in these regards. Lots of horror stories of people getting incomplete or broken equipment, if they receive anything at all, and then being told they have to ship it back to Titan on their own dollar to get replacements.
Some of the pieces were perfect from beginning to end. Some of the pieces were very frustrating. Ultimately, Titan fixed every issue by either offering 10% off for my trouble or sending replacement parts. A couple of times I said I would never buy from them again, but changed my mind. If you’ve got patience and time, I’m pretty sure Titan will make any issue right.
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews Gotcha. You definitely have patience. Out of more curiosity, how did that leg extension/curl machine experience go? I have been eyeing that piece for a while, but I'm much more hesitant after reading those reviews.
@@ALEXisSPANISH the prone or seated? The seated was basically perfect. The ankle pad is slightly angled, which is the only real complaint I have about the machine (apparently, most are like this). The prone had a couple issues which took quite a bit of time to get worked out. However, for example, the H-PND, tibia dorsi, back ext, pec fly were all perfect.
Ever so slightly. It doesn’t help that my ankle pad is slightly angled (many people have this issue). With all that being said, I still really like the machine.
It’s a bolt that you put on during the build. You don’t even need to put it on in the first place. Some people might prefer to have it on because it will change the start position of the ankle pad a little bit, but it works perfectly for me to leave it off.
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews That's fantastic! Same here. My brother and I did Kempo Karate for around a year when I was 9 or 10. I didn't have a good experience and stopped going. Always regretted not getting back into it or some other form when I got older. Bummer
@@old_ben7473 reminds me of Jeff Speakman in “the Perfect Weapon” one of the only martial arts movies highlighting Kempo...great 80s martial arts movie. Yeah, it’s a great skill to have and sorry your experience wasn’t better.
@@old_ben7473 if possible, I’d start at a boxing gym with an experienced trainer rather than starting at home. Start with good habits and sound technique right from the get-go.
@@Antonio-kx5rd this video is almost 4 years old (that is hard to believe for me) but Titan used to offer Loyalty Points which was really cool. If I remember correctly, for every $5 spent, Titan gave you a Loyalty Point and those points could go towards lowering the price on your next purchase.
I don’t plan on getting it. While I think it’s an okay machine, the reviews I’ve seen have been pretty mixed. It also has a much larger footprint than I can afford in my home gym. I wish I could be of more help to you.
Hahahahaha! Good point! I would whole heartedly agree with you if not for my next to worst injury ever coming from lifting 100 dbs off the floor for the db chest press.
This channel deserves 100 times more subscribers. Thank you for taking the time to review all these products and helping others make a more informed decision. I would totally buy myself one of those dumbbell stands if they were still for sale

Nice video
Thank you!
4:40 Every home gym on TH-cam has this Arnie poster.
Hahahaha! It’s a classic.
I have the only Jason Voorhees lifting dumbbells tapestry. :)
I have it in my home gym too! I think it's a requirement at this point
@@43bigsteve I have to order myself one...😊
What wedges do you use?
I use the xii : xi wedges. I have an Amazon affiliate link in my video: My favorite Pieces of Home Gym Equipment under $100
Great Bloodsport poster!
One of the movies that got me to pursue martial arts in my younger years.
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews That's fantastic! Same here. My brother and I did Kempo Karate for around a year when I was 9 or 10. I didn't have a good experience and stopped going. Always regretted not getting back into it or some other form when I got older. Bummer
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews I'd like to join a boxing gym after I get a bag and practice at home for a while!
@@old_ben7473 reminds me of Jeff Speakman in “the Perfect Weapon” one of the only martial arts movies highlighting Kempo...great 80s martial arts movie. Yeah, it’s a great skill to have and sorry your experience wasn’t better.
@@old_ben7473 if possible, I’d start at a boxing gym with an experienced trainer rather than starting at home. Start with good habits and sound technique right from the get-go.
Loyalty point?
@@Antonio-kx5rd this video is almost 4 years old (that is hard to believe for me) but Titan used to offer Loyalty Points which was really cool. If I remember correctly, for every $5 spent, Titan gave you a Loyalty Point and those points could go towards lowering the price on your next purchase.
@@HomeGymHacksandReviews wish it still existed. I just spent over 3k with them.
Can you review the new adductor/ abductor combo machine?
I don’t plan on getting it. While I think it’s an okay machine, the reviews I’ve seen have been pretty mixed. It also has a much larger footprint than I can afford in my home gym. I wish I could be of more help to you.
Waste to grab weights from a shelf, from the floor is just another rep!!!
Hahahahaha! Good point! I would whole heartedly agree with you if not for my next to worst injury ever coming from lifting 100 dbs off the floor for the db chest press.
What about the stomach resting t bar row
I almost purchased that but it’s a pretty big piece of equipment and I can do that exercise with the Levergym.
