Pound for pound….Inspire especially the Costco version ($1000-1300 depending on the location) if you are considering value for what you get as well as fitting into a small corner. If cost isn’t a factor Rep rack with Ares or Athena is hard to beat. Inspires version with smith machine does look good for bodybuilding especially but I’ve never tried it.
Would love to see the review of the Titan model. I was hoping to someday buy the Titan Nemesis but then thought it was discontinued up until a few weeks ago when I received an e-mail from Titan. Keep up the good work.
Love getting another Gluck review...even if it is from Adrian and not Wynie JK! Edit: After watching, can confirm, great review and a nice option for smaller spaces.
Thanks for this review, as well as the Bells of Steel one. I just bought this one while they ran the 10% Black Friday sale. You mentioned the handles it comes with are not the best. What company makes the best attachments to purchase for this FT-3000, if REP's are not ideal? Looking for several attachments, not just the handles. Thanks again!
Looking between specs of the 3000 and the 5000, there really isn't a big difference. Something like 4 inches of width and depth, 10 inches in height, and 25 additional pounds of weight plates. Both of these are compact against most of the other popular functional trainers out there. I think I'm going to go with the 5000. My space for it is small, but just a few inches isn't going to matter much at all.
I’m definitely interested in seeing the Nemisis review. I haven’t seen too many single stack functional trainers with that style arm system in the budget price range. One quick question, is the cable thicker on the FT-3000 than the Ares?
Hey Gluck! Your review on this has made me seriously consider purchasing this. As a man who has a pretty long arm span at 6'0, would I do better with the 5000 over the 3000? I'm leaning towards the 3000 for the price but I'm happy to shell out the 500 if it's absolutely necessary. Love your content man.
The 5000 is the better of the two so if you can swing it I would. If you need space savings the 3000 is great and actually it's a really good trainer either way but the 5000 is just a little better.
Good review ! I’m 5ft7 10st with an 8ft roof , would you get the 5000 or the 3000? If I get the 3000 would I still have the range of motion to do bicep curls / tricep push downs an cable flys, Thanks
Careful when doing seated rows like Winnie did at 1st that's how I pulled my back out with that wide foot placement, but i also wasn't doing a controlled back straight up movement like her 👊
I agree that the FT3000 is prob the best compact functional trainer. The weight break down is awkward. Worked out on a FT5000 for the first time a few weeks ago. Awesome equipment but it really throws you off if you are t used to the weight increments.
Okay so my ego wants the 5000 2.0 but I am a 5'7 130lb female who really enjoys lifting and having a sweet home gym. Would this be plenty for me or should I go big or go home. The extra $500 isn't a factor.
If money isn't a factor the 5000 is a better machine but my buddy is 6'1" 250lbs and a very strong man and he absolutely loves his 3000. I'd get the best I can afford but I think you'll be happy with either.
I bought an on sale inspire piece from Costco a couple years back. My only gripe with it is the pos included pull up bar, but I really can’t see myself needing more than what it offers.
I would love a dedicated functional trainer, but no room. Luckily Rep has the Ares, which works great for me. With more space, I would just get the sectorized lat pull-down and low row on the rack and a dedicated FT-5000v2.
@gluckgym received this product as a gift in July. I have not used it because there seems to be a grinding noise when trolley is moved up or down. I did lubricate it. Does anyone know what can cause that grinding / scraping sound.
Hey Gluck😊 Do you have any opinion on Rogue’s Olympic Plates? Not the USA version, but just the regular ones. I’m looking for the most affordable/decent quality plates I can find, and I don’t really care how they look.
Those are generic standard plates and you can order basically the same imported plate from many companies. Rep Rogue, etc. I wouldn't put any value in the fact Rogue is selling them. You can try the used marketplace, plates like that are very common.
FT3000 2.0 + Selector Lat Row Attachment vs. ARES? I am leaning towards the LAT ROW + FT3000 just because it seems like the ARES really hinders work that can be done inside your rack...
I always recommend a good dedicated unit over the Aries if you have the space. The Ares is great but more limited vs something built specifically to be one thing
There's some other skills and things you need too but it's as simple as working two full time jobs for a few years in the off chance your channel catches on.
It really angers me that U still have to buy pieces like this to review when Coop at GGR gets EVERY piece free. Yeah, he's been reviewing equipment longer but U and Wynie have Arrived and it is past the time for companies to realize this and they should be standing in line to send U free stuff to review. Sorry for the rant but I'm only speaking the truth!!!!!
@@GlucksGym I'm Glad they sent it free but I just don't understand why Y'all have to buy any equipment. BTW, Sorry I missed a couple videos, my Mom had major heart problems and she had to have surgery. She is okay now and hopefully all is fine. I watched the videos later on but figured it was too late to comment. I'm always with Y'all Take Care
Don't worry about small things like watching and commenting. We've already very much appreciated your support but your family is much more important. Someday we'll grow in power but we're very happy where we are with the channel now.
@@GlucksGym Probably but this joke is offensive to some. Normally you just make frat boy jokes about "holes" and other dumb crap. This is the first time I have heard you joke about the color of ones skin. But good luck with that.
Rep? Bells? Inspire? Or what? Who makes the best compact functional trainer?

If cost isn’t a factor Rep rack with Ares or Athena is hard to beat. Inspires version with smith machine does look good for bodybuilding especially but I’ve never tried it.
I got the inspire version for $800 at costco about a year ago. Works as good as the first day
Heck yea excited for the nemesis review
Gotta love the baby playing at his feet
😂 He likes to sneak into shots
1 smal tip. : take a white wall behind the product you are filming. We get a getter wiev of the product then. :)
Would love to see the review of the Titan model. I was hoping to someday buy the Titan Nemesis but then thought it was discontinued up until a few weeks ago when I received an e-mail from Titan. Keep up the good work.
Thanks. It'll probably be a few months but I'll get there

Edit: After watching, can confirm, great review and a nice option for smaller spaces.
Thanks. Sorry you had to settle for me this time 😂
I prefer the version 1 because the trolley cable goes lower than version 2. I do belt squats so version 1 is perfect for me.
Welcome back! Can't wait to see the new bench!
Wynie is the real MVP. Her review let us finally get ahead on vidoes!

Get in line for the one 😂
Great review as always.. For the algo!!

Seems solid!

I debated dual Athenas and the lat pull /low row but never pulled the trigger. But maybe if I convince myself it's for a review... 🤔
@@GlucksGym I thought of that option and would prefer it. Just the height might have been an issue.
What is the thickness of the selector pin? Wondering which Gympin would work best.
STILL NO affiliate link for BOS Canada. Next time you come north, my pet polar bear wants to talk to you.
I jusssst finally made one on our main affiliate page because you reminded me again 😂
How do you compare the Inspire FT3 to the Rep FT3000?
@gluckgym received this product as a gift in July. I have not used it because there seems to be a grinding noise when trolley is moved up or down. I did lubricate it. Does anyone know what can cause that grinding / scraping sound.
Can’t wait to see the review of the mantra ray when you get it in 2026 😮
Can't wait to get it in and then they release the color options
I have REP FT-3000. Do you think this will hold up if I hang my 80 lb heavy bag from pullup bar?
Hey Gluck😊
Do you have any opinion on Rogue’s Olympic Plates? Not the USA version, but just the regular ones. I’m looking for the most affordable/decent quality plates I can find, and I don’t really care how they look.

@@GlucksGym Oh! I had no idea they were just generic plates with a Rogue logo. Kind of a bummr actually…
We're talking about the same plates right? Because the Rogue Olympic Plates don't have a logo on them
@@GlucksGym yes, I was just saying that. More of a “Rogue Logo” implication bc they’re selling them I guess.
Huge missed opportunity at 5:38 with the effective height of 69”. Not sure how you missed that one…
When is the Titan Nemesis review coming?
When Titan sends it 😂
FT3000 2.0 + Selector Lat Row Attachment vs. ARES?
I am leaning towards the LAT ROW + FT3000 just because it seems like the ARES really hinders work that can be done inside your rack...
I always recommend a good dedicated unit over the Aries if you have the space. The Ares is great but more limited vs something built specifically to be one thing
@@GlucksGym That's how I feel. The thought of having to setup or teardown equipment to achieve one single movement is not fun, IMO.
So what you're saying is, if we have a channel with 30k+ subs, we too can get free gym equipment?
There's some other skills and things you need too but it's as simple as working two full time jobs for a few years in the off chance your channel catches on.
Can you review ironax xft?
how does this compare to the inspire FTX?
This is a much more polished and robust design but the Inspire, especially on sale from Costco is hard to beat for the money
Where did you get that cool shirt?
My friend found it at a thrift store
@glucksgym rep or bells for a very limited space that needs to be tucked into a corner?
They're similarly sized but Rep's is a little better made so unless one is on sale that's what I'd go with. Tbh they're both very good for the price.
@GlucksGym maybe I can also get the cables on correctly on my first try (4)!!
Good luck 😂
This one just might fit in my basement!
😂 Someday we'll find one that fits
Looks ok, but just a standard Functional trainer. It seems like these are mostly an afterthought for companies - they are all quite similar.
“The first time on my 4th try” 😂😂😂
It's funny because it's true 😅
Are you reviewing Rep blackwing bench?
Yep!
At 6'2, is the width okay for cable crossovers?
Gluck's big black balls. Just makes me giggle.
WHERE IS THE TITAN FITNESS NEMESIS FUNCTIONAL TRAINER REVIEW :)
It's not in stock yet 😂😭
Maybe someday
Would fit where the hyper is
Compare this to the Arcadia
I'll try to get my hands on one
Rep said on insta the arcadia is basically replacing this one so I wouldn't bother buying an outdated model unless it's super discounted.
why didn’t you compare more openly with Bells…all too vague and on the fence
the weight increments are a deal breaker for me
5:07 Just lower the pull-up bar for her you savage. 4 bolts mofo
I gave her a lower bar on the Rogue rack. She doesn't use it 😂
You know I love you. Well, I really love Winnie. But stop playing with this junk, get a Freemotion like I have and call it a day. Lol.
That's kinda the point of the channel though. Get to play with stuff 😊

Thank U Both
Your channel is Great with no ceiling
Wow you sold something
Hahaha only to buy something else
Boom goes the dynamite
Am i literally the only one noticing all the innuendo or is this just a fixture of the channel
I'm not sure what you mean 🤔
@@GlucksGym lol good review bro thinking of getting this
😂 🥈
At least you knew it this time 😂
I'm 6'8😢
That explains the big in the user name 😂
"Big black balls"??? Some might consider that bad taste.
Some might consider the whole channel bad taste
