A runner's four favourite strength moves on a Gym Monster at home: hip extensions, calf raises, split squats and squats.
His four moves, and why runners use them
“Running is basically a whole load of one-legged landings.”
In one 8-week study, distance runners who added heavy half-squats three times a week improved their running economy (Støren and colleagues, 2008).

How it loads your legs
Three things make strength work fit a runner's week.
- 1Dual 800 W motors in the base
- 2Cable runs up the column
- 3Carriage sets the height
Weight without plates
The motors set the resistance, up to 100 kg, so moving from calf raises to squats takes a tap on the screen. Eccentric mode loads the lowering phase harder.
Up to 100 kg · dual 800 W motors · Standard, Eccentric, Chain and Fixed Speed
Increases the resistance as you lower back to the start.
One column, every height
Use the bottom position for hip extensions and calf raises, then slide the carriage up for other moves. 19 positions, 7.5 cm apart.

Folds when you're done
Lift the platform and it stands 37 cm deep. When you lower it, it comes down gently and never drops. There's nothing to fix to the wall.

Owners of earlier Gym Monster models, in their own words

I've had the Gym Monster for about 5 months and still over the moon with it. I find its digital weight adjustment so convenient and the smart eccentric feature a game changer. I use this between work meetings and can be much more consistent with my workout because of the accessibility and ease.

This is an amazing piece of equipment for resistance training. It has allowed me to achieve fast gains in both strength and hypertrophy and has completely replaced my gym membership. I highly recommend it.

Using Speediance has made me realise how bad my form was in the past, with the guided workouts I definitely feel like I am working out the muscles I am supposed to in each workout and not wasting my time. Thank you Speediance for creating such an incredible machine wow!

The doubts runners usually have
Most runners we speak to ask these first.
Still deciding?
Book a free live demoThen keep it short. Two 20-minute sessions a week, at home, with no drive either side. That's the whole commitment.
100 kg of cable resistance goes a long way on single-leg moves. If you want to squat heavier, Gym Monster 3S goes up to 120 kg.
The motors put up to 100 kg of resistance on the cable, and you feel it from the first rep. Switch between Standard, Eccentric, Chain and Fixed Speed to change how each rep loads.
Start with the week above, built from the four moves in the video. The screen also has coach-led courses if you'd rather follow one.
It folds to 0.26 m², 37 x 69 cm, and needs no wall mounting. See it at full size in your room
