Powertec Workbench Multi System (Yellow)

Product Information

The Powertec home gym is one of three multi-seat systems we reviewed and is capable of enabling three people to use it at once. As mentioned above, there are dedicated stations for chest, core and leg training. In comparison, the Yukon Wolverine enables four people at once to exercise.

This is a review of the Powertec WorkBench Levergym System; a multi-use, plate-loaded gym station designed to give a home gym owner with limited floor space and limited funds access to a large variety of machine-based resistance exercises. It features both a low and high pulley system, adjustable pressing arms, and an adjustable, detachable bench. Other accessories that allow you to expand the unit even further are also available. 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! 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! 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! TheLeverGym Advantage: Lever arms implemented within the design of this multi-gym drive the exercises, while the special weight plates are loaded directly onto the lever. This functionality 9 simply replaces the barbell.

Two things before I begin…

If you’re a powerlifter, strongman, or any other experienced lifter who basically just needs a decent cable station and a decent device for blasting out your chest after an hour under the barbell, but you still care about function, form and positioning, and you intend to load this up with some real weight, well then this review is for you. The Olympic Bench includes the front tube adaptor that accepts all Powertec Attachments Fully Adjustable Bench Design: The handles that are mounted on the bench for doing leg extensions feel like they are about to be ripped clear of the frame during each rep. I’ve tightened these bolts down twice in the three months I’ve owned it and it still comes loose with (very moderate) use. 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.

The pulley system can handle up to 300-pounds total. It’s not jaw-dropping high, but it should be adequate for the vast majority of lifters. All-in-all, I think Powertec is just unorganized and behind the times. I recommend that you buy new Powertec equipment from a third-party vendor and only deal with Powertec directly when you need a specific part. By doing so you’ll not only avoid potential customer service issues, but you’ll also save as much as 15% on the cost of the equipment. The tower is a solid piece of equipment. It will allow you to do any movement that you could do with a lat tower/low row combo; it will definitely allow you to do any movements that you could do with the Spud Inc. Pulley System; and it will even give you access to the Hammer Strength-style, iso-lateral pressing movements. Lots of variety indeed! There is also a pair of plate-loaded pressing arms on the front of the tower. These arms are adjustable to allow for shoulder presses, incline bench press, flat bench press, or a very low setting just for getting the arms out of the way when using the machine for cable work. Pros of the WorkBench Tower (WB-LST)We would like to point out the best features of this particular model, which would be the attractive appearance, excellent build quality (most of their training machines are finished with a solid powder coat for enhanced durability), and careful safety measures. For all the features it has to offer, the price is very much affordable and holds great value for the money you spend. With our machine, you'll never need to buy any piece of home gym equipment ever again! We teamed up with some of the best sports equipment engineers to bring you the ultimate cable multi gym machine
