This hybrid workout combo can be tailored to any fitness level or goal. Here’s how to approach it, whether you’re a beginner, in recovery, focusing on strength, or working on mobility and flexibility.
For Beginners
If you’re just getting started, bodyweight exercises combined with light resistance on the Gym Monster are perfect for building confidence and a solid foundation.
- Combo Exercises:
- Bodyweight squats followed by light-resistance Gym Monster squats.

For Those Recovering from Injuries
A hybrid routine can also work well for injury recovery. Gentle bodyweight movements with light, controlled resistance on the Gym Monster can help you regain strength without putting too much strain on your body.
- Combo Exercises:
- Seated leg raises paired with light-resistance Gym Monster leg extensions to keep joint movement safe.
- Bodyweight rows alongside low-resistance Gym Monster chest rows.

The Gym Pal is another helpful accessory that provides support for safe, stabilised movements, giving you confidence during recovery.
For Strength-Builders
For those aiming to build serious muscle, combining bodyweight exercises with high-resistance settings on the Gym Monster creates an efficient path to muscle growth.
- Combo Exercises:
- High-resistance Gym Monster squats paired with weighted lunges.

Add a weight lifting belt for extra support on those high-resistance moves, which will help you achieve stability and form.
For Flexibility and Mobility Seekers
A hybrid workout that focuses on bodyweight and low-resistance moves is perfect for those looking to improve flexibility and mobility. This approach supports overall body function and helps prevent injuries by strengthening your range of motion.
