Title: Need a new bench... this anygood?
Post by: lilbg on January 25, 2007, 07:16:41 AM

My current bench is a cheapy 60$ bench that is fine except the seat will not incline so im always fighting to stay upright when doing incline presses and im pretty tired of it.  Is this a good bench?  Looks like the seat inclines automatically when you raise the back..

There is quite a bit of equipment from Body-Solid that is "commercial grade"...usually that brand is safe to go with especially if its for your home, it should be fine.

If possible I would check it out in real life before buying

I tried to find it locally but no luck.  I went ahead and made the order.  It cant be worse then the one I have and from the reviews I read its very solid.  Atleast the seat inclines so I dont slip out of it when working shoulders.  Also the handles on it are nice when doing leg work.  Shiping weight is 125lbs.
