Hoist Home Gyms Review

Looking at the Hoist Home Gyms . . .

Hoist fitness products may cost quite a bit more than most other home gyms on the market, but they also offer some very unique designs and features that you simply will not find on other systems. You have to thoroughly investigate what each of these home gyms can add to your
workout before you determine whether the extra money is worth spending or not.

In many cases, Hoist exercise equipment can completely replace a gym membership as they offer
high quality features found in any health club environment, plus some features not found in most gyms. It may be worth making the initial investment to get rid of those increasing membership fees forever.

Let's check out a few of the Hoist Home Gyms

Hoist V6 Personal Pulley Gym

One of the most unique models is the Hoist V6 Personal Pulley Gym.  This is a pulley system that completely does away with the bench and back rest to allow standing and knee-positioned movements only. It does add in a chin up bar, which is something you will not find on most other home gyms from any other brand.

With the V6 pulley system, you stand in the center of two columns and pull down on uniquely designed pulleys. Each pulley is weight controlled by the side columns, which each hold 150 pound weight stacks.

Since the stacks are completely enclosed in the columns this system is not as noisy as many others. You can also adjust each column to different weights, working each side of your body differently or equally. This is not possible with most other home gyms, making this a great option for anyone nursing an injury on one side of the body.

Each pulley can be adjusted through 35 different positions and there is a recess and tray provided to hold belongings. It is also more compact than most other home gyms, which is another benefit.

Hoist V-Core Gym

If you want something with the standard seat and back rest, the Hoist V-Core Gym is one option. It is a pulley system with a seat and back rest, but no leg station.

However, it has a very sleek, modern design with one very special feature: you can actually put your body off center in order to stabilize with your core and tone your abs while working your upper body. The back support can be completely removed and there is a storage rack for belongings. 

Hoist V-Rox Gym

The Hoist V-Rox Gym is another option that closely resembles your typical home gym station. It does include leg exercises and comes with a unique back pad that can tilt in different angles for better support with different movements.

The roller pads on the leg station also adjust to your height, which most home systems do not offer.

Hoist V-Express

If you like Hoist home gyms but do not necessarily have a few thousand dollars to spend on a home system right now, you may consider the V-Express Gym. It is priced more in line with other brands of pulley style home gyms, but also does not come with the unique features found on the other models.

The V-Express does have a uniquely designed articulating press arm. It allows 3-dimensional movements, ideal for doing presses and fly exercise routines.

Other benefits include the pivoting back pad, which offers upper body support, to reduce back strain during your workout. And the compact design makes the most of your available floor space.
