> there's no way that can be right.

I'd work from the assumption that it's right.

This flat bench is rated to 600 pounds and has been tested to 1000, and costs less;

This adjustable bench is currently available at Costco for $89 and is rated to 500 pounds.

And like u/nelsonskjold sez, used market is always worth checking out.

Ive always wondered. All my exercises are done on a barbell rack and I occupy this thing for about 1h30m each day I go.

Is this irritating to people?

There are two of these racks at my gym that I go to.

u/happy_lappy_cats · 2 pointsr/homegym

I got this one from $130 Canadian. It has 500 pound weight capacity, so you'll never have to buy another one. It's adjustable and it feels gym quality. The company is located in the states, so theoretically it should be cheaper for you.

Don't do leg extensions. They are complete shit:

  1. knee damage

  2. poor gains

  3. They don't produce strength gains that transfer well to sports

I almost went with it with my rack, but it's the same as this Cap model which goes on sale regularly. I'd keep an eye on that one as well.

The CAP deluxe adjustable bench is available on Amazon for about 100, and it is solid and a lot better than the options you linked IMO. It's rated to 500 lbs and I've done box squats on it with 580 total weight counting me. Not in the ballpark of a REP bench but still a good option imo. You just have to bench flat upside down if you want the full 12 inches across your shoulder. Otherwise the width is 10 inches.

The titan bench is the same design as the bench sold at Dicks Sporting and if you search Amazon, CAP re-branded it as well if you want reviews, I personally have never used them: https://www.amazon.com/CAP-Barbell-Deluxe-Utility-Weight/dp/B00HGCJZEC/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1494288540&sr=8-1&keywords=cap+adjustable+weight+bench

Nice catch. I think my PR bench is 135 lbs so I would be going right to the weight capacity. Actually the more I look at the bench, the less I like it.

Something like this has a 500 lbs capacity:

u/PornKing123 · 2 pointsr/homegym

It's the same design as this one by CAP: https://www.amazon.com/CAP-Barbell-Deluxe-Utility-Weight/dp/B00HGCJZEC

So you can read a ton of reviews there and see what might be good or bad about it. According to the Q&A on Titan's website for this bench, someone trying to post a 3-star review and "warn others" was censored.

All in all, the bench is nothing new, except the weight rating which seems a little suspect since CAP set it at 500 lbs. Now it's at 650 with the same product. 650 probably sells a lot more though since it now hits a mark most people won't ever reach.

Your bench looks to be missing a couple pieces. Those big holes drilled in the uprights will allow you to add some bar holders. Looks like this except yours look a little different (holes are on outside instead of facing you)

EDIT: Found some. Just have to request the "old style" http://extremetrainingequipment.com/index.php/j-hooks-attachment.html

I recently upgraded my home gym with the following:

Power rack

I can do any lift that does not require specialized equipment, and it cost me just around $500. Both are well built (IMO) and sturdy. You would also need a barbell set with weights which you can also find fairly cheap; I got mine from Craigslist pretty cheap. But whatever you get make sure you have enough clearance in the garage for it. Some power racks are built shorter for low ceilings.

CAP Barbell Deluxe Utility Bench


I'm around 205lb benching 215lb at the moment and this bench has a max weight of 500lb when on the flat position. I don't think I'm going to hit a 300+ bench that soon but I'm worried about I have less than 100lb to go before my bench doesn't support it. Any other benches in Canada that won't destroy my wallet?

u/Klizz · 1 pointr/Fitness

Yup, pretty much. The main thing is the ability to freely adjust the incline. You want a bench that has multiple incline settings so that you can pick and choose the exact angle because most incline benches will overshoot the angle for incline db chest pressing (About 30 degrees). A good example is something like this.

Decline is less important. If you can find a good bench with it, great, but it's not necessary. 30 degree angle for incline benching and good upright support for seated shoulder pressing is the main thing we're looking for.

u/Chernoobyl · 1 pointr/homegym

Yeah, some areas just never seem to have good stuff. Good luck with your search, if you remember I'd be interested to see what bench you end up with (I'm in the market for a bench upgrade with a similar budget). I was looking at this one, mostly because it looks more like a commercial grade bench, which is what I want. - https://www.amazon.com/CAP-Barbell-Deluxe-Utility-Weight/dp/B00HGCJZEC/ref=s9_simh_gw_g200_i5_r?_encoding=UTF8
