Buying Used Commercial-Grade Gym Equipment For A Home Gym / Fitness Equipment Empire

In this video, I share my experience buying used commercial-grade gym equipment from, Fitness Equipment Empire. Also, I list my pros and cons to consider when purchasing used commercial-grade strength training equipment.

To start with, buying used commercial-grade equipment, is usually at least half the price of new commercial pieces.

Video includes the Nautilus 2ST Super Pullover and the Cybex Eagle NX Abductor & Adductor Combo Machine.

These pieces are beautiful man. They had that squat press in my college weight room, and I lived on it! Great video HGHR.

Thanks for the great content!! After watching this I was on the hunt for the pull over and scored one today!! Had to drive a couple hours and cross a boarder lol but it was worth it. Love the super pull over. Thanks for the great videos.

The very best video on this subject I've ever seen. Really brilliantly set out. My respect for you Hacky. By the way: in the Netherlands it is very easy to buy professional gym equipment. There are so many providers (many from Technogym, but also plenty of other A-brands) and in this small country delivery costs are nothing.

Comprehensive, authentic, pocket friendly and responsive to his fans.

I always share and like the videos. Thanks so much👍🙏

U got an awesome home gym and knowledge my friend. Keep lifting.

Great vid as always. FYI, regarding commercial cardio equipment, I recently was going to buy a used Life Fitness treadmill from a commercial gym reseller and they noted I would have to get in an electrician to put in the proper outlet. Something to keep in mind for cardio equipment.

Honestly the commercial grade machines are the real deal! Miss all of those machines that most can get for your home gyms. That abductor machine is 🔥🔥. That’s a gold mine bro!

Your gym keeps getting better and better! I'm also a 1 man moving crew and it is difficult for me to even move non-commercial equipment around. Not only weight of the machines but trying not to damage anything, including my house! I can't even imagine moving commercial pieces around. Sad part is I am simply out of space in my basement gym 😞

[davidekman]

Love your home gym, love the way you talk about your equipment. One Thing if it was My gym I would paint the natilus machine black so it match the rest of your equipment. Nice Channel good day

[DanesinTexas]

Solid stuff 💪💪 love the ad/abductor machine 👌👌

[tgr_strength]

Great video. I have also found myself slowly replacing my home/residential quality stuff with commercial grade pieces. There are some machines that are simply leagues better when they’re commercial grade.

Why would you buy an adductor / abductor machine? The pullover is great but I don't see the value in the other.

[blackphoenix]

If you want resistance at the start of the Titan Leg Extension (5:24) or a similar model, just rest the plates on a low stool to create a more horizontal lever arm at the start of the ROM.
It creates a better resistance profile than many of the commercial-grade leg extensions that cost thousands.

@HGH&R,

That pullover machine is awesome (and makes me envious).

Remember that massively overbuilt old school Nautilus dual chest press/pec fly beast from the 80’s? Jeez, I’d hate to think about requirements to move one!

Experimentation allowed me to recreate about 90% of the pullover effect on my DAP/ low incline bench/EZ curl bar in combination with resistance bands strapped over weight stacks.

I do have a refurbished commercial cardio piece: Octane XT One elliptical climber. Saved $6K over new. Buttery smooth upper-lower extremity movement arcs with expansive stride adjustment.

[cjackman]

I predicted your channel would organically move into the realm of acquiring hard-to-find commercial grade gym equipment.

Man your experience of home gym is so precious you have no idea🥺

[markn]

So cool to see this as a home gym owner myself. Purchased a Fray Fitness Hack Squat and am thoroughly impressed as it has the same design as Icarian but for a fraction of the price. Some pieces (fray, fettle) are hit/miss. Love your content and please keep it up. 👍

Do a review of the cybex abductor/adductor.

[fatboitino]

They never have anything I want in stock😢😢😢
