GM 2 vs AEKE vs Fithub?
I'm a short petite middle aged old woman that needs to start strength training to build muscle and bone density so I don't end up a decrepit mess later in life.
I have previous experience lifting (lighter) weights (dumb bells, barbell and machines) from lift w/cardio gym classes.
Space is an issue and I've narrowed it down to the GM 2, Aeke or Fithub.
Fithub is the largest/heaviest w/articulating arms and full length mirror screen. I don't even know how I'd transport it up a few steps into my place :(
AEKE is the sleekest w/full length mirror screen but only one attachment point at the floor base. I'd actually prefer a base w/a manual lift up/down vs Aeke's motorized fold away- it looks like a potential point of failure.
GM is less sleek, no mirror w/smaller touch screen but has multiple attachment posts top/sides/floor.
The large mirror on Fithub and Aeke is ideal for checking proper lifting form.
If GM had a full length mirror I would go w/GM but I'm totally torn b/c it doesn't.
Despite it, GM is still a strong contender which is why I posted here, please help me decide :)
