Weight Benches for Sale

There is no substitute for weight training when you want to build muscle. In order to maximise the use of “free” weights (ie. dumbbells and barbells), a bench is necessary. It enables lying and sitting in safety when using the weights in the gym.

Most home use benches have an adjustable seat for incline or decline, and some have attachments that allow for extra exercises to be performed. Barbell benches have upright bar holders for safety when performing presses. An Olympic bar will fit on a weights bench, and we do sell these. All of our weights benches have easy adjustment of the seat angle.

Buy fitness equipment like a weights bench and it opens up many possibilities of gym training, including powerlifting, bodybuilding and HiiT workouts.

Where space is tight, a folding model is recommended, and if it is for a hotel guest, the best bench would have sturdy wheels and an attractive style.

Weight training is known as anaerobic exercise, meaning that the cardiorespiratory benefit is minimal. However, benefits include muscle growth and toning, strength gains, and some fat loss (particularly during longer workouts or “super-set” training).

Look for a weights bench that has a strong steel section frame and welds that make it rigid. Cheap weights benches are less safe and do not handle the weight well, and in a home gym setting this can be unacceptable. Thick upholstery is also important so that it is comfortable even when using heavy weights.

Some weights benches have accessories like a leg extension, lat pulldown or preacher curl attachment, making them ideal for multiple exercises. A weights bench can be used with a power rack, smith machine, dual pulley functional trainer or just on its own.

Most domestic weights benches have transport wheels to make it possible to move it around the room without injury. When used with a power rack or smith machine, there are many exercises possible.

Buying a weights bench may be the most cost effective way to own one as they are not too expensive to buy. We offer many purchase options for customers, including finance.
