Quality: Very high. Stated weight limit is 375 and I believe it. I’m 225, and this feels very sturdy to me while using. Tubular steel and attachments all feel very sturdy and high quality. Cables do too. Heavy duty pulleys as well. The pad on the glide board is not super-thick, but I don’t think it is on any of the Total Gyms. It’s not Trying to be a bed or couch.
Experience: So far a big thumbs up. Glides very smoothly and the included exercise book and cards show you some creative and challenging ways to use the machine - a wide variety of exercises. The attachments fit perfectly, and I have total confidence they will support the weight as needed. It is pretty easy to switch the machine’s configuration to perform various exercises, and I like that it’s so quick, as it does not introduce an unintended cool-down time. I haven’t come across any configuration changes yet that take more than 15-20 seconds. The exercises are all super-smooth and non-jarring if you do them correctly. Great full range of motion.
Setup: comes fully assembled. Several boxes to open that contain the attachments. Read the directions for how to “unfold” it if it’s not clear to you.
Storage: no wheels, so if you plan to store it away a lot, you might not like that, but I just leave mine out unless I have company over. Opening and closing takes a minute to sort out, but it’s easy once you understand it.
In the box: I went with this model over some others like the XLS mainly due to cost and the fact that it includes the leg rope, the wing attachments, the squat stand and the dip bars.
Other stuff: Although it’s not included, this model does have the holes if you want to add the weight bar, so that was a nice plus to discover.
That said, this is a tone machine more than a hulk-out machine. At the highest setting, you’re using 60% of your own body weight and I think if you add the weight bar it supports up to another 180 pounds (not positive on that though). So if you need more weight than that for your workout, this won’t really work for you.
It’s also a long machine when open. Plan on having a good 10 feet available length-wise and, depending on the types of exercises you do, and how long your arms are, at least 5or 6 feet of width clearance.
Overall, I am very happy and even impressed with this machine so far.
Update 6 months in: Still love it. No complaints.
Update one year: I added the optional weight bar. It is great for tweaking the “feel” of the resistance to get it just right. It’s still a great machine. I use it four times a week for about 30 minutes and over the year have dropped 30 pounds and greatly increased my strength. I’m surprising myself how easy it is to lift things I used to struggle with. The absolute best thing about this machine is how easy it is to change the difficulty. At one point, I had hurt my back working in the yard. I was able to set the resistance way back - all the way back to #2 - and still do some really light work while my back healed. No idea how I would have done that with most other equipment. And, if I had completely taken off the four weeks it took for my back to get right, I might have stopped exercising entirely. Instead, over those four weeks, I slowly moved from 2 back up to 8 as I could handle it. That’s a really great thing about this equipment that isn’t obvious at first.
So, I did a ton of research online, read reviews and compared features, and the Total Gym brand did seem legit. I settled on this Total Gym model as the perfect balance between price and functionality. I’m a small woman, 63 years old, and my goals are overall fitness, toning, weight loss and health. I am not looking to build bulk, and the “limited” range of 6 resistance levels - other models offer more - is sufficient for me.
I live alone, but using leverage and gravity, I was able to get the heavy box through the house down the stairs to my basement workout area. Unboxing was fairly straightforward. (I will say, be SURE to remove all the packing materials. There are some stealthy bits of cardboard I didn’t find at first.) Set up was easy. The Total Gym comes with a set-up guide, exercise guide and wall poster showing all the major exercises. It took me a couple of days to get the hang of using it, but after that’s was off and running. Exercises are effective and the Gym moves smoothly. I’ve always enjoyed working out, but now I can’t wait to get downstairs every morning and hit the Gym.
Exercises in booklet and on poster are well described and easy to follow, and the workouts feel good. Accessories are easy to install and take off. The Total Gym also comes with a workout DVD and subscription to online videos, but I haven’t used either of those, so can’t speak to that aspect of this package.
One thing I added to my order was a set of interlocking 24”x24” floor mats to place under the gym, as I’d read thy have a tendency to scoot around on hard surfaces if you don’t place mats under them. I recommend plastic/rubber mats it you are using your Gym on a hard surface. My whole setup takes up a space around 10’x4’ - and at just under $350.00, the gym and mats together were less than my yearly gym membership.
For fun, community and support I hope to go back to my local gym when I can, but for now the Total Gym is a fantastic alternative.
The Total Gym, in its many variations, checked many of my boxes.
Life story aside, this thing shipped and arrived very quickly. Thanks Amazon and FedEx! It comes fully assembled, save for attaching the attachments. Setup took me about 5 minutes. I did cheat by watching a video while waiting for this unit to arrive--who doesn't these days?
I was eager to experience the Total Gym version of compound exercises. The pull up, shoulder press, push up, dip, and squat attachments performed flawlessly!!!. My squat and deadlift form and weight are great for my age and physical limitations. But I have disabilities that require adjustments and progressions for all of the other "big" compound exercises. NOT WITH THE TOTAL GYM! I was blown away. The machine has my needs factored in so to speak. I lowered the bench and turned the "wings" around and I was doing pull ups that I could feel (heck, I still feel them!). Adjust the bench and I was doing shoulder presses without pain for the first time in years! I performed dips that I felt in my pecs. OMGosh!
I used a high end Total Gym in physical therapy before for other exercises. I wasn't sure the Apex G3 would do what I needed.
I am sure now.
PS. It feels robust, safe, and well built. It did not come with a poster of Chuck Norris though-dang!
