EVO Gym - Portable Home Gym Strength Training Equipment, at Home Gym | All in One Gym - Resistance Bands, Base Holds Gym Bar & Handles for Travel | Portable Gym & Home Exercise Equipment

I needed something that would be an upgrade from my old/regular resistance bands that you have to step on etc. for workouts and wanted to find something that would provide improved resistance training that I could do at home, in a small space, since the gym or home gym with free weights etc. isn’t an option right now, so I thought I’d give this a try, and it more then fits the bill!I find that the option to use the “notches” on the bands is genius, since you can get decent eccentric resistance since you’re able to have some tension throughout most movements. Something I was not able to achieve with other resistance bands that had almost nothing until you were halfway to the concentric contraction because of the length (and no base to attach the bands too). Since starting with the EVO, and it’s ability for many various resistance exercises for the whole body, I’ve already noticed good gainsand definition In my muscles and overall fitness. I’m a skinny-ish older guy, so I’ve also been adding a lot of protein and some extra calories to my diet to maximize my results.The build quality of the base and accessories is great, and all the printed info received with the product, the online videos from Mitchell (the owner) are really very helpful for a basic overview of what you can do with the EVO.Also their customer service has been really great and quick to respond (thanks Jim Reyes) with some of my questions etc.I saw some other reviews regarding people having frustrations with changing the bands on the base between exercises, and I get it, it’s a bit of a learning curve, but once you “get it” it’s not really that bad at all, and you’ll get fast at it (look at it as your rest time between sets).But I do agree that the door anchor/band connection bracket can be bit “clunky” to work with, but it’s pretty ingenious for how it can work with the notched bands, but yeah, I do struggle with it at times.I also really appreciate that Nomadix makes sure you are very aware of the limitations of resistance bands, unlike other companies that usually just gloss over this, or don’t even make you aware that as these latex bands get older, or are pushed beyond their ability they may snap. it’s happened to me with other ones I’ve had, and yeah, it's jarring, but that’s just the reality of these things. Just got to remember to try to inspect them as best you can for wear etc.At least Nomadix offers FREE replacements if a band should break, or is received with any issues!I’m a VERY happy customer, and really have been enjoying getting my motivation back for muscle building & strength training since seeing my results with the EVO - Thanks guys!

I usually don't write reviews, but the Evogym is really quite good. I've been using it for about 3 months now and have been exceptionally pleased with it for a number of reasons:1) There is a huge variety of exercises you can do with it and once you get a feel for how to load and unload each exercise, it feels safe and secure. (Use a wide stance with any heavy lifts.)2) The ability to gradually increase weight for progressive overload is fantastic. I've seen really noticeable results in my arms, legs, back, and chest. And you can really load it up for deadlifts and squats.3) I had a band break on me, because of a mistake I made. The company replaced them despite me admitting my error and said that they stand by their product no matter what. They even gave me updates on the shipping progress of the replacement. And they sent me 2 instead of 1.4) I don't use this anywhere but at home, but it's nice and small and I can slide it under the bed in a second. It's easily portable for any sort of driving trip. Not sure I'd put it in a suitcase and on a plane, but you could. I just think all the bands might worry TSA.5) The overall construction feels solid. The base plate is good. The bar is 3 pieces, but it's rock solid and the padding is holding up well. The handles are plastic, but seem solid. The leg straps are easy to put on and take off.Overall just a really solid piece of gym equipment that has helped me get in surprisingly good shape. It's hard when you start loading up weight and that's perfect!

I really enjoy using this home gym! It folds up for easy, compact storage and though it is a simple system, it makes for a killer workout!My main motivations for buying this were cost efficiency, ease of use, and efficient storage, as I have limited space. It has checked all these boxes for me and I especially like that it provides the option to use a barbell or handles. My favorite exercises to perform using this have been squats (front and back), overhead press, and cable flies and reverse flies. Deadlifts and chest presses are the only exercises that seem to be suboptimal on this system, but using some creativity, you can overcome this (doing banded pushups and crossovers still pump up the chest and if you loop 1 or 2 bands on both sides, as you would for a banded push up, you could use this resistance for deadlifts).Also, the platform and bar are sturdy and the overall quality is very solid. I would recommend this item for those looking to get in a good workout from home without breaking the bank or taking up too much space.
