Despite the competition from trendy new fitness inventions, free-weight lifting continues to be a popular option for home strength training. Free weights offer a special benefit in strength training because they promote quicker strength gains. Free weights also work a larger number of muscles than resistance machines, which tend to focus on isolated muscles. Specially-designed adjustable pads, grips, and bars help limit and guide movements to minimize the possibility of muscle or joint damage. Plus, from a single utility bench, a vast number of exercises can be performed. Whether it is focusing on the abdomen, arms, chest, or any other muscle group, a utility bench can help you maximize your strength training goals while minimizing your risk of personal injury.

 great value October 9, 2008
for a workout bench at such a low price it delivers great value-it is very well made and very easy to assemble-a real winner of a product-highly recommended
Marcy M440 October 7, 2008
Have had ~15 workouts on this bench. I weigh 190lbs and have had over 225lbs (415 total) and have had no issues with the stability. Very sturdy. Also enjoy the ability to switch positions easily/quickly. Seat does not adjust when bench is in incline position. Original description said it did. Can get around it but still not happy with incorrect description.
Works great. Sturdy. Not flimsy. January 22, 2008

It's well built. Really solid. I wish the pads for the ankles are adjustable. At 5'6" the pads ride up to my heels when doing the back of my legs. The T-bar for doing preacher curls is also awkward. The arc of motion does not give me a smooth motion. If the length was adjustable, it would be perfect.
Great Bench for the Price January 14, 2008

This is a great bench for the price. In fact, it would be a great bench at twice the price. It arrived as promised and was very easy to assemble. The instructions were clear and all the parts fit as stated. It is well made and sturdy. I am very happy with this purchase.
 Worth the $100 w/free shipping but bicep curl function is useless. August 25, 2007
6 out of 6 found this review helpful
I purchased this item for use with the bowflex selecttech dumbbells. My thinking was that,for $100 dollars, I could use it for a incline/decline/flat bench and any other functions were a bonus. Assembly was relatively easy for me. The large welded parts were slightly misaligned but that did not affect functionality. Once assembled, I discovered that the bicep curl function was useless because the best range of motion I could achieve was from having my arm bent at 45 to 50 degrees and then curl the bar to my face (90 degrees). I am 6'1" with long arms so you will probably gain more range if you are shorter. The only bicep curl adjustment was on the elbow pad which had three settings in the vertical direction. The back pad has four settings: vertical (90degrees), angled (45 degrees?), flat and decline (-20 degrees). This seemed adequate for my chest exercises. I have not use the leg curl since I have no plate weights but there is a lock on it so it will keep my legs in place while doing other exercises. The pads are firm, comfortable and look nice. The frame has been really stable for what I have been doing with it and it is relatively light weight. I can easily pick it up and move it around. It is definitely worth the money if you don't need the built in curl bar.
