Powertec WB-FT Workbench Functional Trainer
One of the standout additions is a set of chin-up bars. They are a new style from Powertec and are extra wide for all you trainers who really like to get wide and feel that stretch. You know who you are.
Powertec has also added a bar which you can attach to both cables. It is fantastic as it feels like you are actually using a barbell. You can use this bar for all sorts of pressing and pulling movements such as bench press, close grip press, upright row, barbell curls and so much more. It is also very useful for sports-specific training – Powertec has produced several videos demonstrating some great examples.
One of my favorite exercises to do is a seated row on a pulley machine, and lucky for me, Powertec’s new Functional Trainer has a great setup for this exercise. Not only does it has its own dedicated station in the middle of the machine, but you also have these sweet footrests that you can use to really break through your plateaus. Set up at the base of the machine sits your very own cable and any attachment you wish to use. With the extremely smooth action, you feel like this is all it was made for. This Functional Trainer is a fantastic new edition to the Powertec family and can be used for either toning the body or maintaining strength. The Functional Trainer. A great addition to any home gym or studio.
