Imagine a single piece of equipment that brings more control, versatility, and space-saving practicality to your training space—without making things complicated.

It’s easy to see why this feels like the smart choice you’ve been waiting for.

Key Features & Benefits

• 5° angled, counterbalanced bar with smooth glide The bar travels effortlessly along case-hardened steel shafts thanks to a linear bearing system. The slight angle aligns with natural movement patterns, and the counterbalance makes it approachable and responsive for users of different experience levels.
• Built-in weight plate storage Plate horns on either side keep weights tidy and within reach—no more turning your back or stepping away mid-set.
• Walk-through design and adjustable safety stops The open front frame lets you step right into position—great for pairing with benches or free-weight work. Adjustable bar stops act like your own personal spotter, defining safe limits and giving peace of mind.
• Solid commercial-grade build Rugged 11-gauge steel, durable powder-coat finishes (available in white or silver), and protective shrouds over moving parts—all come together to build trust that this machine won’t let you down over time.
• Space-efficient footprint for serious lifting At around 86¼″ long, 40¼″ wide, and 91½″ tall, and tipping the scales at about 740 lbs—it occupies space thoughtfully while offering gym-style strength training.

User Interface & Experience

There’s no screen to wrestle with—just set your safety stops, load your plates onto the built-in horns, and command the bar with purpose. The guided bar path and counterbalanced feel make each movement feel grounded, stable, and under your control.
