About this deal

To put all that another way, if you’re a total newbie who just wants a machine that can mimic a row of commercial gym machines in your home for not a lot of money, then you’ll probably be very happy with the WorkBench. It’s easy to use, versatile, and fairly inexpensive. I kind of go against the grain when it comes to Titan; at least among my fellow reviewers. I believe that anyone who can put a pair of 45’s on a bar (regardless of the lift) should steer clear of Titan products; which I think covers just about everyone. They are cheap, poorly constructed, and even dangerous products in many cases. I’m personally afraid of their J-cups, their safeties, and really anything with welds to be honest. Some people will tell you that only a couple of people so far have had their J-cups snap in two or a weld shatter, but I don’t want to be the guy that happens to and I definitely don’t want it to happen to any of my friends or family who use my gym. It’s just not worth the savings. With this PowerTec Multisystem Workbench/fitness station, you can perform a wide range of exercises including Calf Raises, Close Grip Bench Presses and Pull Downs, Incline Leg Lifts and Bench Rows, Squats, Lunges, and much more. The bench includes the front tube adaptor that accepts all modular Powertec Workbench Attachments. True Weight Lifted on Leverarms:

The tower portion of the WB-LS is a pretty solid piece of equipment. It comprises about 2/3 of the total WB-LS price, offers a ton of variety in terms of exercises that can be performed, takes up very little square footage in your gym, and it has a longer list of pros than cons. The bench is only remotely stable when attached to the WorkBench frame, but leaving it attached makes lining the bench under the pressing handles impossible. You’ll either line up properly under the handles for pressing, or you won’t. I do not. The bench is not stable enough when unattached from the unit for heavy pressing so I just don’t use it at all.The arms on the lever gym equate to 20 lbs. lifted. (10 lbs. each arm). The weight reduction due to the leverage is 20% of the total load plus the weight of the arms. For example - with 200 lbs. added to the Leverarms, you would minus 20% for the Leverarm weight distribution (160 lbs.) plus the weight of the arms (20lbs.). Therefore, 200 lbs. of weight would equate to a total 180 lbs. of perceived weight lifted.

Fitted with everything you need to workout your entire body! Whether your goal is to burn fat, build muscle, or increase your endurance, our machine will help you achieve it! The pressing arms can also be fairly useful if you’re fortunate enough to have a bench that allows you to line up properly under the handles. I’ve had major issue with this myself, and I own no less than five benches at the moment. The 2016 version of the WorkBench has iso-lateral pressing arm function, which is a very nice touch, but you still need to be able to line up properly to use those arms safely (with good form.) If you’re of average height you likely won’t have too many issues (see a theme? This thing hates tall people). Finally, the bench and ab station includes a front tube adaptor that's compatible with various Powertec Workbench Accessories. So you can keep adding to it over time. Should you buy the Powertec Workbench Multi-System? I appreciate the update on that newer bench, William. I’m certainly glad to hear that it’s improved because that old bench really was a nightmare of a product, and I really do like a lot of what Powertec does. This leverage system does not allow for a very large range of motion. You can only pull the cable so far before you’ve moved the plates thru their full range. Chains are used to change the starting position of your cable attachment, but maximum range of motion is always limited. Tall people will probably have issues with a number of movements. I did.Maintenance-Free: There are no cables or pulleys included in this product, meaning you won't have to worry about rusting and constant need for lubrication of working parts. Simply assemble it once, and you're ready to go!

With a vivid, staggeringly bright yellow accent hue, this multi-gym is sure to make a statement in any location it is placed in. It doesn't look too clunky or industrial, and it allows you to access a wide range of possible workouts. Constructed to remove wobbling! With our extra wide base constructed from heavy duty steel to provide an immovable experience when lifting. We've also fitted our cable machine with solid steel, coated cable wires to ensure maximum tensile strength when lifting at the heaviest settings of our cable machine!Generally, multi gyms have gained increased attention and popularity due to people's desire to access workouts more. The bench and Ab station includes the front tube adaptor that accepts Powertec Workbench Attachments. True Weight Lifted on Leverarms: We've built our machine with one feature in mind. Variety! If your goal is to burn fat, build muscle, or increase your endurance, our machine will help you achieve it! With 50+ exercise ranging from lat pulldowns, bicep preacher curls, leg extensions, chest presses and many more! The Leverage Advantage: Weight plates are loaded directly onto the Isolateral Lever Arms providing for a natural feel and the resistance of free weights with the safety and control of a machine. Total Body Training for Multiple Users: I do enjoy the tower portion of the WorkBench. I can see this being used on a regular basis even if just used for secondary/accessory lifts. Exercise variety is virtually unlimited and the cable moves through the pulley system very smoothly delivering consistent tension with no catching or dragging. I think the height of the pulley could stand to be a little higher so that tall people can stand under it, but unless you’re trying to squat in this thing it doesn’t come up much.
