Once it's installed, most of the time the defaults are fine for most. It will block ads, and it will block the "sponsored" (ahem) Google results, and it will block some Slickdeals links (alas) but there are workarounds to all of that. After all, you ARE getting this to block ads!
On the UDM SE: Set your DNS for your home network to (the RasPi's IP address).
Wait a little while, while your clients adjust to using the new DNS server (the Pi) rather than the UDM and whatever your ISP uses.
Extra bonus points: Setup PiHole's uplink as OpenDNS, setup an account on OpenDNS, and use their enhanced blocking to block more junk / adult trash /etc.
More bonus points: Use the UDM SE console, turn on full packet inspection and network defense / blocks. The wording escapes me at the moment, but on a UDM SE it shouldn't slow down even the fastest networks doing that step.
Even MORE bonus points: On the UDM SE, kill all connections to 12 (or is it 15?) suspect countries. You don't need anything from them, so block all traffic in and out. You'll be stunned at how much cleaner everything runs, and you'll get far less attacks too.
And no, the PiHole won't slow down your network. But again, it will block ads, and that sometimes means it blocks ads you might not mind.
But browsing webpages becomes fast and wonderful again, without millions of annoying ads....

I am setting up a room as a gym and I think this would be perfect for what I have in mind. Only thing is I really don't want to put too much effort into hiding cables. My wallet appreciates my DIY laziness

If you do want a Pi, any Pi 3 or 4 of any capacity is more than sufficient. For your own speed and sanity, a 4 with 2GB is the minimum I would go, but any 3 or 4 (or 2, honestly) is vastly, vastly more than you need for a PiHole.
