I was initially in the market for a pin or plate loaded chest machine with fly's, but I was concerned about a lot of things.
Whether the machines would even fit my body type; would they be too small, too short, uncomfortable or incompatible, etc.
Coupled with other issues like ASSEMBLY time and instructions requiring hours of work and with missing screws and parts that happen or quality control issues, defects, etc. Then you need to lube the machines to keep them running smooth and sometimes even that is a hit or miss.
I also wanted something that didn't require too much fiddling to change from sets to sets (Circuit training, Super-sets, Drop-sets, Combo sets, MYO Reps, Rest-pause training, etc.).
In the machines I have to change a knob at the top to go from presses to fly's, etc. So can't really SMOOTHLY super set or transition without breaking FLOW state. There is an interruption.
In comes IRON CHEST MASTER!!! FULLY ASSEMBLED machine with no fiddling or lubrication required. Yes, you may need to replace the bands in the future due to wear and tear OR low humid environment (drying out the bands), etc. but they are cheap and ordered a bunch of extras. It was a big risk but it was SO worth it due to the price of the alternatives + headaches that they come with them.
So I JUST tried it and IRON CHEST MASTER kicks my butt, it's amazing. The handles fit my hands very comfortably, I also adjusted the length of the machine to fit me. It's incredible, VERY HIGH QUALITY. It's great for SUPER setting from presses to fly's if you don't want to do them together. I might even purchase another one down the line to SUPER SET or DROP set with lower resistances.
I just feel like CHEST is the most perfect muscle if you want to body build for aesthetics, looks, beauty, impressive others and status. Nothing beats a big massive chest. There are many variations that can hit upper, lower, mid (default), side (upper/mid/lower) AND middle chest. Some people say Oh it isn't like that you can't target those muscles separately, but I feel soreness there and I can and I KNOW what chests without UPPER development or FLY usage look like. They're bad, they look incomplete, and this is the FIX!
I already have a gorgeous chest but I NEED more upper chest development and it's hard for me to hit those during Incline Presses due to my shoulders always coming in the way, plus wrists or elbows hurt if I change the angles. IRON CHEST MASTER IS WORKING SO WELL.
It really shouldn't be sold on the premise of the bird metaphor but instead on HOW much HEADACHES, MONEY, TIME, and STRESS you will SAVE by purchasing this machine. I have a lot of gym equipment in my home gym, but this is going to be the ULTRA BEAST. If all goes well down the line, I am definitely going to purchase another one for easy transition from SET to SET.
It already kicked my butt and lowered by reps by a whopping 66%! WELL DONE Ron Williams and team, WELL DONE!!!
A little note: If you can purchase from your own country, do so, because UPS charged me extra extra extra for no reason and ended up paying a lot in the end. I paid $400 my Country currency, when it was available at $230 or so from my own country but it didn't include the bag and other goodies, which I think is critical to keep the bands from dehydrating and keep their longevity. This is on UPS and I googled and they've been doing this for 10 years. But I am so happy with the machine and SO impressed that it's still worthit for me. Also I wanted the authentic product so I got it directly from RON.
THEY REALLY need to advertise and market it right. I bought it for the reasons discussed above and not because of the bird metaphor. I saved a TON of money even though had to overpay, still SUPER worth it in the end and I'm SO HAPPY.
