Just got my Nordbench, it has exceeded expectations. If you follow the instructions you can definitely experience a ZERO wobble stability. I'm 205 lbs and it is commercial quality build, as long as the base is fully extended it lives up to it's claims. The foam looks like it would not survive a commercial setting but for home use it is equal to gym level quality. Took 20 mins to setup, defense yake your time to get 10 bolts in snug and correct on the first try. I would highly recommend this. Stores upright as described, stores flat as described, fits in every room of my house. Thank you. Solid upgrades and refinement updates.
I just received my bench this week and put it together. I was able to put it together on my own. So far, I have done two workouts on it and find it to be very comfortable and very stable. It’s a great addition to my home gym!
Been enjoying the new Nordstick Bench for glute emphasis back extensions. Feeling very stable in use so far!
I got mine in early November 2024 and after putting it all together it felt very solid and the padding feels very good when doing Nordic curls or back extensions or any abdominal workouts. This device is the only one I’ve seen on the market that effectively targets all my needs for a multi purpose exercise bench. The portability and compact footprint when standing upright make it a huge win for my household so it can be out of the way and also quickly accessible to get some workouts in, which is a must when you have kids and lengthy uninterrupted training is no longer a possibility in most cases. 5 stars. As a side note I did have some issues with mine that were not trivial but also didn’t stop me from fully enjoying the bench and the company sent me a new one free of charge with updates. I will be purchasing more from nordstick for like as I really believe in their product. When you get a call from the founder to discuss concerns that shows they really care and want to put out the best product.
Love how much versatility I have with these rollers and the floor space they save.
The quality of the foam is top notch and the top hat adapter is a great idea for people like me who have a rack with 5/8" and 1" holes.
I use them for Nordic curls, reverse hypers, decline sit ups, split squats, lower back extensions, as a lap bar for lat pulldowns.
If I were to buy a dedicated machine for all those exercises I'd run out of space and money.
This is exactly what I was looking for to augment my garage gym. Sled pulls forward and backward made super easy with the genius design. Super compact so it’s easy to store.
This thing hits the back of my knees really well, where I am weak. It is a simple apparatus that provides the most tension on the hamstrings of any exercise I have ever done. I am a chiropractor and a former fitness professional. This is the King Kong of hamstring exercises!

Tl;dr: The Nordstick is a good, affordable solution for workouts in limited space.
I was worried the Nordstick wouldn't hold on my French doors because they have some give to them but it anchors very securely. I use my Abmat for cushioning. I figured I'd need assistance for Nordics but at failure I'm able to fall down to my workout mat and push myself back up with no problem. Bonus is the band door anchor separate from the Nordstick (it wasn't included in the list of included items).
One star reduction because Nordstick markets the bands as useful for beginners but the resistance of the lightest one (black) is still too much for me to do hamstring curls and reverse squats at full ROM. I had to order a lighter band with clips so that lowers the value of paying $20 above the cost of the Nordstick for bands and cuffs.

I just got my OmniStrap and I LOVE IT. The quality of the material is amazing, and it works great to help me build my hip flexor and hamstring strength. Highly recommend
Love the new updated design! Haven’t used in earnest yet but compared to the original I have very thoughtful updates and added design elements to make it far more useful! I literally own and love ALL Nordstick products to date and expect that to continue :) thanks again for an awesome product!
Love it!!!!
This worked my neck to my toes. I’m looking forward to the overall strengthening these mixed variations of exercises has to offer. Most of all, I enjoy the ability to take it any where I go.

Love all of my Nordstick items! The Nordstick Pro is fantastic, looking forward to using the multiple Omni straps I now have more but so far good! Just got the Omni bands and door strap sets as well, thanks for great products and all the best!
I rate this between a 3.5 and 4. I'd been using a strong mini band with the same principle, securing a db under my shoe (no ankle cuff of course). I thought these would be quicker to switch out from one foot to the other. Not so much. Part of the problem is that to tighten the straps you pull down. I use small dbs and my foot is close to the floor so pulling down is challenging. On the positive side, the db is much more secure than with my previous method. The ankle cuff is comfortable. And the product appears very well made. I just wish that the straps pulled up not down.
Great tool to workout the hammies at home!
Great so far, hoping long term to reduce hamstring tightness. Seems like it could also help my knees.
Well built. Targets hamstrings differently than any exercise I’ve been able to find so far. Get the Norpad too… it’s legit.

Who would’ve thought that something so small could be such a great value? As a XC Skier, I have known about the Nordic curl for years. So I started out by buying a large $700 Glute & Hamstring H-PND Combo. Besides taking up a lot of room in my small gym, using it was painful on my knees. I sold that unit, and gave up on that exercise. I’ve just received my NordicStick Pro, and I can’t believe how perfect it is. Less than $50 ( and of course the cost of my yoga mat that I already had), and I was in business. Portability not only means that I can take it when I travel, but it takes very little space in my gym (I did have to buy a $100 leg extension/curl machine, but it also has a smaller footprint). I can tell it’s going to take some time before I even complete one complete Nordic curl, but I can actually use this correctly and comfortably. Bottom line? If you don’t know what a Nordic curl is, research it. Once you know how valuable it is for strong knees and hamstrings and glutes (and how powerful it is to help you improve athletic performance), buy a Nordic Stick.
This Cofof Nordic hamstring trainer is excellent, one of the easiest and most inexpensive ways to outfit your home gym and start working out right away. I have been in the process of creating a small home gym and this one has become one of the most essential tools in it, there a lot of positive points to be discussed and few negatives to be mentioned as well, but before that a quick few words about the packing and presentation. The Cofof trainer comes in a very good and sturdy package that is protecting all the contents inside and is outlining some of the features and contents inside. In the box you have the trainer and a very good knee pad for added comfort, and a small printed in English user manual is included as well.
Positives:
- Useful and inexpensive - I think for $25 this trainer is delivering plenty of useful applications and making leg training easy even for small apartments and homes, you really don't need a big exercise machine to activate these muscles and this small one can do wonders.
- Super fast and easy to assemble and start using it - It takes less than 5 minutes to take all the parts from the plastic and put it together.
- High quality and sturdy metals used - The construction is solid and well made, same goes for the bolts and the cushioning for the insulation.
- Fits pretty much under any door every.
Negatives:
- Hopefully the padding lasts for a long time, I have a similar one from a different brand and the padding fall apart after 6 months.
Overall, a great little exercise tool for your home gym.
