Bench Presses

Whether you're just starting out or are training for a bodybuilding competition, or even the Olympics, a bench press or exercise bench are great tools for your home gym if you wish to build your upper body muscles, including your pecs and triceps. Weight lifting is a great exercise to build up the strength of your body and a bench press is a staple of a muscle-building regime, whether you're using a barbell or dumbbells.

With multi-functional presses, you can engage in different activities depending on your targeted muscle groups or fitness level, able to switch it to a flat bench, incline bench press or decline bench press as needed. Allowing you to build up multiple different muscle groups, some exercise benches offer the ability to perform upper arm workouts, shoulder presses, and situps, along with chin ups and pull ups.

You can even use the bench press as a squat rack, to build up your legs and glutes, as well as your upper body. For your safety when using the bench press, the safety spot bars will help catch the barbell when you're at the end of your workout, preventing injury.
