I expect these to have a positive impact on my fitness aspirations and schedule. They provide a freedom that impacts personal life too. Weight range is pretty ideal, may buy a couple smaller bells though. I can take my pants off to train now. Bell feels a little more natural with weight added than just the shell. Perfect height for semi incline push ups if you get two. I also don’t love sweating at home but it’s a reasonable trade off. There’s still a place for the gym, but these could certainly eliminate the need if necessary. Design is well thought out, edges are not sharp and transitions are smooth. There are some form adjustments to make if you’re used to regular bells. After around 7 years of consistent traditional weight and machine lifting (natural) I accepted I probably won’t ever be a body builder. I’ve been doing mostly only kettle bells and running for the past 8 weeks, and have had these FA for a week and am definitely impressed and glad my Instagram algorithm had a rare targeted win.
I’ve owned several benches over the years, including the REP Nighthawk, REP FB-5000, and Titan Utility Bench, and the Freak Athlete ABX has completely replaced all three for me. What I love most is how versatile this bench is without feeling like a compromise. It gives me the functionality of an adjustable bench when I need it, while still providing the stability and feel I want for heavy pressing. Instead of having three different benches taking up space in my gym, I now have one bench that can do everything I need. The build quality is excellent, the adjustments are quick and easy, and the bench feels extremely solid under heavy weight. The attention to detail is also noticeable — it feels like Freak Athlete actually designed this around how people train rather than simply making another adjustable bench. For anyone building a home gym and trying to maximize versatility without sacrificing performance, I highly recommend the ABX. For me, it replaced three benches and actually freed up space while giving me more functionality than I had before. Very impressed with this bench and easily one of my favorite pieces of equipment in my gym.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
One of our simple youth "Freak Athlete" routine to bulletproof my youth soccer players againts injuries while boosting their speed and explosiveness. This Hyper Pro is an incredible multi-function bench is such a great fantastic, space saving additon to our new garage gym! -The Nipales Butler, NJ-
Perfect all in one machine. Saving space and offers lots.
Exactly as advertised and as we had hoped! This thing is rock solid, but still not super heavy like a lot of benches I’ve tried. The pads feel premium and the handles, knobs, and adjustments are all really well made and I know will honestly last a lifetime. Sure it’s expensive but it’s very much worth it.
★★★★★ My experience with Freak Athlete was excellent. The assembly process was very clear and easy to understand, thanks to the detailed instructions and the helpful assembly videos they provided. The numbered packages also made everything much more organized and straightforward. The support team was also extremely helpful with the issue I encountered. They were responsive and provided the assistance I needed to resolve the problem quickly and effectively. Overall, I’m very satisfied with both the product and the customer support. I would definitely recommend Freak Athlete.
ABX is extremely solid and handles whatever I throw at it. Zero gap system works well. What puts this bench over the others is the adjustable head rest, which I have found multiple uses for. The adjustability is extremely useful and you can get creative.
Love this new Hyper and KB! Bench much improved and more stable than previous model I had Kettlebell is awesome! Very sold. No noise! Definitely worth it
Great attachment. Super secure and works like a charm!
I love the materials this is made of, It has a shiny flick built into the paint. That’s beautiful.! This feels like something you would touch and experience in a commercial gym!!! This is a major game elevation
Sturdy, fast and easy adjustable KB. Love it!
Perfect addition to my basement gym! I have been doing hyperextensions in the rack with quite the homemade setup. This is such a step up for hypers, as well as adding GHRs, QL raises and tons of other variations to boot. When I can afford to, I will get one for the physio clinic I work at as well.
These are so comfortable! I don’t have space for barbells so they’ve helped me progress my goblet squat a lot and I’m looking forward to progress to front racked squats as I get stronger. Orange isn’t my fave color and I wanted to increase the contrast of the weight, so I’ve visually adjusted my set with a dab of nail polish — I think they look pretty cool!
Great padding and easy to attach/detach! The rollers also are nice for elevated Bulgarian split squats.
Very smooth and easy to set up and put away! Feels so stable and comfortable for everything I’ve tried it for. Such a great buy for my home gym!
Looks great
It's perfect! All the adjustable ones on Amazon seemed cheap and maxed at around 45lbs. This was exactly what I was looking for! Easy to change the weight while giving yourself room to go higher!
Bench parfait pour mon home gym. Très solide !
Vraiment bien pour faire les abdo !
Le preacher curl est vraiment un bon atouts au banc !
Really robust and versatile! Perfect to have in a small gym or studio like in my case. Bought the leg Curl/Extension with the candle attachment and they work great also!
Spent a month researching and totally happy with the no gap bench .
Got this bench to replace my crappy cheapo one from high school and I feel like I’ve gone from a clapped out Civic to a Lamborghini. Like, where has this been my whole life? Just how solid it is as well the segmented folding bench, it’s incredible. I’m finding out different ways to use it like chest support rows, flies, tricep extension rest, etc. I’m writing this about 4 months after I purchased it to make sure I really loved it and all I can say is that the leg developer is next. Highly recommend!
This may be the greatest engineering feat in training equipment history! The knob system is easy to use and allows you to tighten every part of the machine to eliminate any wiggle or instability. The padding is extremely comfortable but still firm enough to feel supportive. The vinyl quality is also really rare to find. Most vinyl pulls your hair, whereas this is extremely smooth and looks and feels premium. There’s no other machine on the planet that gives you this type of versatility in a home gym, especially for its footprint. The leg developer and leg curl both have a very consistent strength curve. And because you’re doing the leg extension on a flat pad, you can open up your hip angle and put the quads in a greater stretch, which most commercial leg extension machines don’t allow you to do. This machine is biggest flex right now haha! Couldn’t ask for anything better!
Love this bench! Very easy to assemble. Would have gotten done faster if i didn’t have the help of my 2 yr old. Very solid. I had no movement on my exercises. I also got the leg developer and no movement during either exercise . Highly recommend !
Attrezzo perfetto e funzionale
Perfect for a garage gym. Initial shipment had some damage but the team quickly sent out a replacement part. Great product and great customer service!
Love the fit and finish, pad fitness is perfect for my weight!
First go at getting a back work out in and it’s been great! Been able to simply set up for some super set work. Tomorrow begins the bicep work out with the attachment. I am a heavier guy as well(270lbs) and it feels extremely secure compared to my old bench.
LOVING this machine. Having this at home is getting me closer than ever to six pack goals 🔥🔥🔥
One of the best and most versatile pieces of exercise equipment I’ve ever purchased! I can already feel relief from my constant low back pain, AND to put icing on the cake, I no longer have to wait for the leg extension/ leg curl at my local gym! Total time saver! I couldn’t be more happier with this purchase!
I spent a long time researching home gym equipment before deciding on the Hyper Pro, and I’m honestly impressed! The build quality exceeded my expectations. Everything feels solid, the adjustments are smooth, and once it’s locked in, it feels very stable. One of the biggest reasons I bought the Hyper Pro is because I’ve been dealing with chronic low back pain for a while. I wanted one versatile machine that would let me gradually strengthen my posterior chain and core without needing a room full of equipment. This has given me exactly that. Being able to do controlled movements like reverse hypers, hip thrusts, and back extensions, and progress them over time, has made it so much easier to stay consistent. Overall, this has been one of the best investments I’ve made in my home gym. If you’re looking for one machine that offers incredible versatility, saves space, and can support a structured strengthening routine, I highly recommend it.
Excited to try, will get back for a full review.
This is a very fast adjusting kettlebell with a large weight range suitable for a range of exercises. Thus, it is a very convenient option which makes kettlebell exercises more enjoyable. This is a premium product that is worth the high price but I think that it's also possible to get fit with kettlebells for much cheaper (only buy 1-2 bells of fixed weight). Just noting that the pin sticks out a bit on the highest weight setting (see image). Probably not a big deal unless you are swinging it around very loose clothing. Otherwise, the pin feels very securely attached.
Super qualité, excellent équipement
Easy to assemble, love the bench!
Been eyeing an adjustable kettle bell for a few months. Very happy I purchased from Freak Athlete. Easy to pop in a quick 20-30 min workouts between lab work and meetings. Sully is also happy because he gets to be my trainer!
Have only used it for 4 workouts so far but it’s seamless. Feels really premium and is so simple to adjust. Very happy with it.
This machine is trying to do too much in one device and to many compromises were made from my perspective. I bought it for two primary functions, and they are usable for me. Preacher curls and chest-supported rows. The pins are in a virtually reachable position for safe use with the bicep attachment. The installation video for the bicep attachment needs to state to move the pads down before trying to use the J-hook attachment. It may be obvious to others, but it stumped me. The length and width of the middle pad make using the preacher bench function difficult and ineffective for someone my height, 5’7”. I could not sit and reach the barbell on the floor, or, if I put it close to a rack, I would hit the rack during the curls. The height of the middle pad makes it unusable unless I stand to do preacher curls. For chest-supported rows, the top of the middle pad is in the way, and the raw steel at the bend is not well managed; sharp burrs stick out. This should be ground down in manufacturing. I ended up with three spots bleeding in the process of trying to use this bench. P.S. I have your other GHD product, and it works well for the two functions I bought it for: GHD and Hyperextensions.
