VersaClimber Review

March 17, 2021 Tim Comments Off on VersaClimber Review

In this article we’re going to review the VersaClimber – the original cardio climber equipment for your home or garage gym.

These machines are space efficient – and all of them fit under an 8′ ceiling, with minimal floor space footprint. There are a number of models of VersaClimber you can buy. Here’s the key differences: VersaClimber – Overview Let’s focus on the main attributes of this fitness machine. First of all, the more muscle mass you [Read more …]

Buyer’s Guide to CrossFit Hand Grips

December 22, 2021 Tim 1
