Very compact piece for my small homegym. Easy to move around. Great piece to train my posterior chain. It was always a part of my training that i was not able to do but now i am able to intergrate it. It takes a little time to get used to adjusting but once you use it for a bit then you do not even think about it. Adjusts for me and my wife in no time No regrets getting this piece

The functionality is ridiculous! So many movements in such a compact piece of equipment. You can tell the product design and engineering was purposeful. The assembly video guide was awesome, made the build pretty easy…so. much. tightening. Nordic curls, various back extensions, and reverse hypers are great on this. GHD are a bit awkward without that attachment pad, not sure if GHDs are annoying enough to buy it. Overall very impressed with quality and durability so far!

Love this thing. Incredibly versatile and compact. My garage gym isn’t the biggest, but the vertical storage dispels any worry of a lack of space. They really outdid themselves with this thing. Worth every penny even as a broke college kid. Only negative I can think of is a lack of range of motion with reverse hypers - however, I pre-ordered before the GHD pad dropped, and am confident it will prove an effective remedy once I get my hands on one, so this really only applies for those like me who...

Really awesome sled. I use it for myself (42 year old, very good shape and condition) for extra work at home. I also use it for my son and his friends (10 year olds). It’s very solid and we absolutely love how it takes only seconds to go from push, to drag, to wheelbarrow. I do a mile at a time and alternate every 1/4 mile.

Loving my Nordic Hyper. I’ve been dealing with nagging shoulder and neck injuries. This was just the right piece of gear to get me fired up to focus on my core and lower body. Always wanted a Full GHD but never had the room. This rig is great and super versatile.

This is a wonderfully thought out piece of equipment for people with a home/garage gym. The functionality of the regressed and progressed Nordic board is worth the total cost of the piece by itself in my opinion, but the fact that it adds in both a 45° and 90° back extension makes this an incredible value. The split squat and hip thrust attachment are also great. The reverse hyperextension doesn't really work as that exercise is intended, by providing gentle spinal traction, but it does work to ...

We received ours very recently and I’ve only had a few days to use it. I will write an update for this review in a few months after I’ve had some more experience using it. The build quality is really good and i think I can use it confidently for ghd sits ups (I’m a little over 200 lbs). If you’re a bit heavier you might want to put weight plates on the base. My wife does tell Me that for back extensions, if you’re shorter than ~5f 6in you might have a little trouble using it since the shorte...

This thing is so convenient! The way you can change the angle for back extensions and scale Nordics to your ability is amazing! The attachment for hip thrusts and split squats is great and I can’t wait for the GHD pad to come in so I can test it out for GHD sit-ups. Thanks, Freak Athlete, for the awesome product!

If you want more bulletproof knees, hamstrings, and low back then this is a no brainer I don’t think there’s another piece of equipment that can match this in terms of having all these functions and maintaining quality and sturdiness. Not to mention staying compact and easy to use. As an online coach I’m happy to recommend this to my clients. It helps me a ton with programming the specific exercises that I know will help my clients get to their goals.

Gives ANYONE a real chance at progressing their Nordic. I have a client who’s 74 & absolutely loves doing nordics regressed to her achievable level. It also works very well for every other function it offers. It’s safe, durable & well worth the cost. If you’re questioning whether to purchase it there is not a more affordable, versatile product on the market.

I said, even before getting this product, that they really made something special here and something that noone else could currently compete with. Now that I have the product and have tried it, in all of it's functions, I can only say... I was right. Amazing machine and to me.. this is absolute gold, I have a weak lower back from natures side and a couple of years ago, I almost tore my entire left hamstring, so the fact that this allows me to fully and progressively train my two weak areas, is ...

Come for the Nordics, stay for the versatility I’m enjoying the Nordic Hyper I wanted this for the Nordic curl regressions since that exercise is so hard But after using all the other features, i find myself using it more and more during my workouts Besides Nordics, I can work my legs and glutes using the hip thrust bench and do Bulgarian split squats too For my lower back this a no brainer The 45° and 90° lower back extensions feel great And I can flip myself around and use the reverse ...

First Attempt at Nordic Hamstring Curls with the Hyper Pro After suffering my second ACL rupture on the same knee this year, I decided to invest in the Hyper Pro for my rehabilitation. My physio recommended incorporating Nordic hamstring curls into my program, and it was clear that this piece of equipment would be a great fit. In just two weeks, my physio has already noticed a significant improvement in my hamstring strength. He’s also impressed with the Hyper Pro, calling it an amazing and ve...

I love this machine! I haven’t tried all the exercises yet but so far it’s been amazing. You would have to pay 4-5x the cost to get individual machines to equal the same number of exercises. Truly amazing!

First, what struck me was how carefully well packaged and organized the Hyper Pro was. For anyone with life experience that tells you as much as about the manufacturing and QC that Freak Athlete expects. Second, all the screws, nuts and bolts were partitioned together according to the step they would be needed in the assembly process. Third, a card is provided with a QR code with a video of assembly as well as a link to an instructions manual. If I can describe Freak Athlete and their Hyper Pro ...

This is going to be a vital piece of equipment for my posterior chain work. Interesting that stuff this trains is beginning to pop up in my programming. And the best part is it tucks nicely in the corner so I don’t have to move it to access anything else. That’s impressive since I keep all of my equipment in a 12x12 space in my garage.

ARE WE KIDDING. I am obsessed. This piece of equipment is incredibly functional, suprisingly simple to use, and a great addition to our home gym. I was so impressed by Freak Athelete’s assembly instructions & the packaging. It was easy to set up, even with just one person. This machine doubles the amount of movements I can do in our home gym. I’m excited to start implementing into my training.

Shipped to the UK within a week, no customs issue / extra costs required to receive product. Well built and easily secures to even my minimalist shoes (vibrams). One of the collars broke after a single use, emailed customer support and they shipped a new one out immediately at no charge. Really good service with a great product.

So far so good! Cant wait to use this more once the GHD pads come in. Reverse hyper felt stable and amazing. Abs also felt great. Going to do hamstring curls tomorrow on it to test. This was super easy to put together and came with all necessary tools and instructions. It came slightly assembled so it wasn’t TONS of pieces to put together. So far this is sturdy and works just as I had hoped. It also folds up and stands up nicely which is a huge plus for our very small garage gym space.

Great value for the money, very stable, while fitting in a tight footprint! Took me a few days of using it and adjusting before I got the hang of it, but it’s quick to move between settings after that. I’m a big fan!

I’m using this to strengthen my posterior chain and really target/isolate my hamstrings. After 1 use my hamstrings were sore for 4 days… so far I love it. Not the best for hyper/reverse hyper, unless you’re shorter than 5’8”… but that’s my experience, I could be using it wrong.

So far we love it. We still need to get use to all the adjustments but we will learn quickly. Nice job guys! This replaced my traditional back extension. Obviously much more versatile. Look forward to using this myself as well as with my clients.

Very impressed with how sturdy it is. I'm 5 ft 6 and 160 lb and is absolutely perfect for me and you can use it in a very small space like my apartment. You can set it up to where you can even do leg extensions with the Monkey Feet apparatus.

This is an amazing tool that’d I recommend for a wide variety of people. Athletes , bodyweight Calisthenic practitioners , and patients with low back pain , knee pain and hamstring problems. Likewise it is very secure and stable so. O issues there . I own small studio and it fits perfectly so if you like minimalism and superb efficiency then get this .

So far it performs great. It's relatively sturdy. I would write another review in a few months of breaking it in. The delivery was also earlier than expected and the assembly video helped. The only issue I had were the wrenches were a little difficult because They would get caught on the shank of the bolt and I had to adjust it to get it back on the bolt head. Also, when I tested out the sorenson hold, the bottom came up a little on one side. I'll double check to make sure the floor is level an...

Everything from assembly to figuring out how to adjust has been very simple. Not to mention, when it comes to settings, knobs, and stability these guys thought of EVERYTHING. All while still managing to make it fairly lightweight. My only regret was not ordering one sooner.

Great tool if you don’t have much room and share basement space with kids and their toys. It’s easy to take it out and store it neatly, it takes almost no space when put away. I love how versatile it is. I’m 6’7 and it works well for me although it’s a bit shakier when opened up more when I compare to when my wife uses it. Definitely recommend it, plus customer service was awesome when there was a mix up in my order

Great video instructions and well labeled parts! It only took 30 minutes to assemble! The parts were all packaged securely and individually labeled bags of hardware made assembly extremely easy.

The pads are a very durable material and it will survive hard use. The rollers are going to stay securely on the bar and I have zero ankle pain like other m...
