Olympic Benches
Olympic bench and shoulder press racks typically consist of a sturdy frame with barbell holders, allowing the user to rack and un-rack the barbell safely for exercises like bench press and overhead press.
Preacher Curl Benches
Designed for performing preacher curls, a bicep exercise that isolates the upper arm muscles. The equipment features a preacher pad, which supports the arms during the exercise, reducing momentum or swinging and allowing for focused muscle engagement.
Ab Benches
Ab benches are designed to target and strengthen the abdominal muscles. They provide support and stability during core exercises, often featuring an adjustable decline for varying intensity. Padded surfaces help reduce strain on the lower back and tailbone, while leg anchors secure the legs for stability during exercises like crunches, sit-ups, or leg raises.
