Gymproluxe Band and Bar Set 2.0

Could the Gymproluxe Band and Bar Set 2.0 Level Up Your Home Workouts?

2 MIN READ • 16th June 2025

Looking for a way to work out easily at home? Nicky Maia puts the new Gymproluxe Band and Bar Set 2.0 to the test

If you’ve ever wished your living room could double as a gym without turning into a mess of dumbbells and bulky machines, you’ll want to check out the Gymproluxe Band and Bar Set 2.0. I’ve been putting this sleek little setup through its paces, and I’ve got thoughts. 

First Impressions and Setup 

Straight out of the box, the Gymproluxe Band and Bar Set 2.0 is refreshingly simple. No toolboxes, no head-scratching assembly, just intuitive pieces that click together with a satisfying ease. Bonus points for the app, which comes packed with guided workout videos that make you feel like you’ve got a personal trainer in your pocket. Newbies, you’re in safe hands here. 

Now, I’ll be real: it took a couple of tries to get the hang of swapping bands in and out (especially when I was mid-sweat), and the hip thrust setup was a bit awkward at first. But once you get the hang of it, you’ll be flying through your reps. Plus, exercises like kickbacks and seated rows? Absolute game changers. So smooth. So effective. 

Power and Progression 

This isn’t your average ‘resistance band’ kit. With options ranging from 10kg up to a solid 90kg, you’re looking at a serious range of resistance. Whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been training for a while, there’s plenty of room to grow. 

That said, don’t underestimate the lower bands, 10kg might sound light, but certain exercises (especially upper body ones) will have you feeling the burn quicker than expected. And for anyone worried about being ‘too advanced’ for a band system, fear not, this thing can pack a punch. 

Does The Gymproluxe Band and Bar Set 2.0 Actually Work? 

Absolutely. Especially when it comes to upper body days, this kit delivers. The adjustable resistance lets you push yourself without ever needing a barbell or set of weights. And because you’re not lugging around heavy gear, the chances of tweaking something (hello, dodgy back) are way lower. 

It’s safe, smart, and surprisingly intense. Who knew bands could be this badass? 

Final Verdict on the Gymproluxe Band and Bar Set 2.0

The Gymproluxe Band and Bar Set 2.0 is the kind of fitness gear that makes you want to work out. Compact enough to stash under the bed, tough enough to torch your muscles, and versatile enough to keep things interesting, it’s a solid investment for anyone wanting to level up their home training game. 

Some movements take a bit of fiddling, and it might not replace every gym exercise. But as a full-body, no-fuss workout solution it is seriously impresses. 

We’d highly recommend – especially if you want big results from a small footprint.
