The Primal Performance Series Club Adjustable Bench is a commercial flat to incline bench for dumbbell pressing, rows and bodyweight work, rated to 300 kg of combined user and load. It needs 1538 × 670 mm of floor space and reaches 1265 mm high with the back pad raised, and at 38.9 kg it rolls easily between racks.

One bench covers flat, low incline and high incline work, so a single unit does the job of several fixed benches on a busy free weights floor.

Who it is for

• Commercial gyms that need a dependable adjustable bench for every dumbbell and rack station
• PT studios where one bench has to cover a full client session
• Strength and conditioning rooms running dumbbell pressing and rowing variations

Muscles worked and training uses

An adjustable bench is the most used piece in most free weights areas, because changing the back angle changes which muscles a press or row works hardest.

• Primary: chest, shoulders and upper back, depending on the angle and exercise
• Secondary: triceps, biceps and core stabilisers
• Flat and incline dumbbell press for chest and upper chest development
• Seated shoulder press and chest supported rows with the back pad raised
• Step ups, split squats and hip thrusts using the flat position

Specifications

Frequently asked questions

What footprint does the Club Adjustable Bench need?

It is 1538 mm long and 670 mm wide, and 1265 mm tall at its highest back pad setting. With around 600 mm clear on every side for dumbbell work, allow a space of about 2.7 × 1.9 m.

How much weight can it hold?

Primal rates it at 300 kg, and that figure includes the user plus any weights they are lifting. There is no weight stack, so it is used with dumbbells, a barbell in a rack, or bodyweight.

Will it fit under a low ceiling?

Yes. The tallest point is 1265 mm with the back upright. Seated overhead pressing adds the lifter's arm reach, so a standard 2.4 m ceiling suits most users, while very tall lifters pressing overhead may want a little more.

What does the warranty cover?

It carries Primal's full commercial use warranty: 5 years on the frame, 3 years on parts (parts only) and 1 year on pads and upholstery.

How does delivery work in Australia?

We ship Australia-wide from our Melbourne warehouse, and most metro orders are delivered 1 to 7 business days after dispatch. Packed, it weighs 44.7 kg in a 1485 × 605 × 285 mm box. Some regional addresses need a freight quote, so use the Ask about this machine form on this page and we will quote delivery and installation.

How many adjustable benches does a gym need?

A common rule is one per dumbbell station and one per rack, plus spares for busy periods. Because this bench is on wheels, it can move between zones as demand changes.
