Hoist v3 Home Gym

When you make the move up to the Hoist v3 home gym from the Hoist v1 you're getting a gym that has Hoist's 3D chest press arm that's so unique it's been patented.

The 3D articulating chest press arm on the Hoist v3 is well worth the extra money. Instead of being stuck in a static plane of motion for chest and back exercises, the 3D arm allows you to perform more natural exercise movements.

The freedom of 3D motion will help your body recruit stabilizer muscles and makes adding core strength and muscle mass faster and more effective.

The Hoist v3 also upgrades the seat from the v1. The v3's seat is a 9 position back pad, as opposed to the 5 position back pad on the v1...

Hoist v3 specs and features:

  • Patented 3-D articulating chest press arm
  • 155 lb. Radial Loc weight system
  • Adjustable back pad tilts to 9 different angles
  • 2” x 4” steel frame
  • Wide groove pulleys on high, mid and low cable stations
  • Commercial quality rubber grips with aluminum end fittings
  • Split Weight Cabling delivers 50% resistance to mid and low pulleys
  • Upholstered roller pads with aluminum end fittings
  • Strap handles with revolving grips

The Hoist v3 home gym is a nice upgrade over the Hoist v1, and will cost you roughly $300 more. There's also a quality leg press option that can be added in the future if you have the room for it, not to mention the bankroll.

If you're shopping in this price range, check out the Body Craft Xpress, Body Solid 1500 and Body Solid g4i as better less expensive options to the Hoist v3 gym....
