Freak Athlete Nordic Hyper GHD Review - INSANE Versatility but... 

They kinda did you dirty. Your first post, the discount was less than the email subscription or abandoned cart discount. Today your discount is identical to the discount they advertise on their home page (code hyper) I’m pretty mad about it - but still went through and followed up with customer service your affiliate would at least get applied. They should have just given you a code for additional $10 off or something on top of any other sale/code. Or no code. Thanks for the quick review on this!

Did you get it?

Thank you so much!

We do our best to take the feedback you guys and improve as fast as possible! After all, none of this would be possible without you guys!

About doing the reverse hyper on this, was the ROM limited and that’s why you don’t see it as a true reverse hyper? Do you think it’s still useful doing it on them?

Thanks!

By anyone you mean specifically us, right?

@@GlucksGym preferably you but I would have settled for Brandon Campbell, GGR, or even GGR's second channel.

Thank you!

I was originally looking at this for RH but once learned more about it gave up and bought the Rogue Scout. It’s false advertising calling it RH. 😂

“Googling west side scout”

Thanks for responding to my insistent questions at all hours of the night 😂

Do you know if the machine can also be used for preacher curls?

I'm hopeful too 😂 thanks!

How is it?

You meant this specific reviewer... right?! 😂

So exciting! Hopefully be now you have gotten a few training sessions on it? How is it going?

Hope you enjoy it and glad you liked the review!

Well, you can still use it for Reverse Hypers and it WILL work just fine, is it as good as a dedicated reverse hyper.. no, of course not. But for me personally, it's a fine compromise, as I base my entire homegym around NOT having barbells and weight plates. So this machine is just amazing.

@@Somtricno doubt. I’m stoked about it! Beggars can’t be choosers. The price is right and the functionality is there just may be some compromise.

Yeah reverse hyper is one of the only things that you gotta get perfect for yourself and it's usually pricy 😆 I sold all my stuff, I'm looking into baseblocks and this

Thank you!!

Yeah it's just hard to spend $400 on a large machine for one movement. Because I don't have space for both. But I'm still leaning that way.

That what we're here for! Hope it helps people.

It's a unique product and it's cool to see people push the envelope

Happy to help. That Bells sale will be coming soon, I know a guy who knows a guy who's also me

Success! Thanks!

Thanks for the comment boost!

You're going to absolutely love it, especially for your small space!

We are so happy to hear that!

Happy to help!

Yeah I was tempted too, because I'm struggling to justify the cost of the Westside Scout for one movement. But, I'm still leaning that way.

Thanks Bobby!

You're gonna love it! It's sooo comfortable as a back extension and makes Nordics so easy to regress

Thanks for watching!

Thank you!

Nordics and ghd situps seem to be pretty solid.

I'm told the code works internationally 🤷

I’ll give it a go and see what happens. Nothing ventured, nothing gained 👍

You're the one guy I have to mention my height for in every review 😂

That's ok. We appreciate the support!

Thank you!

Haha. Appreciate it! Hope you enjoy the vid

I was offered that one and turned it down for a few reasons. What don't you like about that one?

@@GlucksGym So many things. Packaging was garbage and the box was torn open and items scuffed and the UHMW liner for the tube the foot unit goes in was destroyed and now it's super hard to adjust. The pads are SOFT and have permanent knee dents after first use (and I only weight 160lbs). The vinyl over the padding feels cheap and is loose on the cushion so it moves a little bit right when you get on. It wobbles a ton under use. The ladder style adjustment is quick, but does not feel secure at all and is only locked in there by like 1/4" and seems like an accident waiting to happen. To get to the lowest regressions there's a separately attached pop pin and metal support that aren't stored on the unit and are easy to use and annoying to adjust. There's probably more as I haven't even done any of the exercises except regressed nordics simply cause the methods of adjustment make me so angry to use. So in short, it was a bad purchase and I'm quickly trying to dump it on FB marketplace and patiently awaiting the Freak

@joeschmidhofer2674 interesting. I had my reservations and declined the review. Seems like a good choice on my part

Plus it doesnt have a notch for us men@@joeschmidhofer2674

Damn... You're right. I missed the 7th and most important part! 😭

It looks pretty heavy, I bet curling it would do wonders.

Preacher bench

Just you wait Bobby 😊

Loool I didn't catch that one. It's definitely the Manta Ray

Thanks Kurt! I tried to review it by emulating everything Freak Athlete has shown themselves. There's definitely creative ways around some of the issues.

If you're back there you better be smiling

Finally! I've achieved my life goals!

Angled and depending on your height you can get something out of it. I didn't really think of trying anything besides the bands they suggested. It's better than nothing even if not ideal

Yep! It takes another $50 off the price

​@GlucksGym Thanks!

@@GlucksGym How durable do you find this thing? This would be perfect for the minute amount of space that I have left in my garage. I like the fact that it's multifunctional.

@@davidb1975a it's good quality for a home gym. I think the padding and vinyl is well done. they have newly upgraded pop pins which would've been my complaint but when I got it in I was pretty low on it. After using it I think it's pretty good.

@@GlucksGym Thanks! I trust your opinion. I didn't want to buy a piece of junk at that price.

If I was on something I wouldn't fit on camera 😂

Haha it's a beast!

hahah thanks. See how well I behave?!

@@GlucksGym You're a paragon of virtue 😇

I would say no. You'll wack your head (ask me how I know). I know a guy who has a lot of benches though 😉

I’m 5’ 4” 200-210. I want the best bench that I could do decline sit ups on with best incline and flat. Along with this. Too many directions to go in starting off lol

ayyy! Let''s go!

You're gonna love it!

Hahahaha. I've got a lot of practice with lines like that

@@GlucksGym I'll assume you mean experience saying things with a straight face, and not...

I was wholly expecting a follow up like, “but don’t worry, I’ve been practicing “

I mean, he says it does everything very well, except reverse hypers

​@@MelloHubbBut if you're battling back issues, that's the most important one, IMO.

@@MelloHubb Actually he said “glute ham raises are a good example of, it works but it’s not gonna compete with a good dedicated machine” 13:32

😊😊😊😊😊😊

I'm not sure if that's a compliment 😂
