The ATX Triplex Multi-Gym (ATX-WSX-670) is your German-engineered all-in-one solution, packing a 250kg leverage bench press, 160kg plate-loaded lat pulldown/low row, and a detachable FID bench into a compact 132cm x 122cm footprint. Smash chest presses, lat pulldowns, rows, squats, curls, and more with iso-lateral lever arms pivoting on industrial bearings for a silky-smooth, gym-quality feel.
Key Features:
Stable Construction
The anti-slip footplate provides additional support, while the cut outs in the footplate serve as depth markings for your bench.
Compact Footprint
The bench can actually be folded up, meaning the whole machine will take up 122 cm x 132 cm of your floorspace.
Lever Arm Adjustments
A total of 11 adjustment positions ranging from decline bench press/bent over rows to incline military shoulder press.
Low Row Pulley
The low pulley sits higher compared to lat machines. Allowing you to comfortably do seated rows form the bench.
Safest Way of Training
There is no bar in between the arms to fall on your chest when you fail the rep. Ideal for those who are training alone.
Knurled Dual Grips
The narrower grips will work your tri’s in the pressing movements while the wider grip will target your chest.
Knee Lock
Lat machine is rated for 160 kgs, so the included adjustable knee rest makes a difference.
15 Backrest Angles
Adjust from -10° decline to 83° incline for presses, rows, and shoulder work,
Olympic Sleeves
Olympic Adapters included for both the lat pulldown part and the lever arms on this unit.
The Leverage Advantage
Despite looking like an engineering marvel, the concept is pretty simple. Instead of using cables and a pin-loaded weight stack, which can be both costly and complicated, the resistance is created from leverage. You only have to look in nearly any commercial gym and you will see loads of leverage machines. Leverage works great in a gym environment. You can build a machine with a relatively simple design and make it handle a lot of weight.
The resistance curve on a leverage machine follows a similar path to that of a free weight barbell or dumbbell exercise. So it has a more natural feel than that of a smith machine. Since you don’t have to stabilise the barbell or dumbbell, you can really focus on hitting the target muscle.
Best of all, you will find yourself pushing yourself to new limits, especially if you train without a partner. The start/stop mechanism provides the ultimate form of safety. You can push yourself to failure and beyond without having to worry about getting trapped under the barbell.
The pivot points utilise bearings so the resistance is both smooth and direct, as opposed to cable gyms where the resistance can vary through certain parts of the movement. So it really does feel like a commercial leverage machine that you would use at the gym.
But easily my favourite part is experimenting with new exercises and variations that the lever arms offer. You will be able to hit muscles from all different angles in a completely different way to a barbell or dumbbell, so you will never grow tired of training on your Triplex!
Additional Information
Ok, I know the question you all want to know. What is the difference between the Powertec LeverGym and the ATX® Triplex Multi Gym? The short answer is not much! I covered the drama associated with the Powertec/ATX®in a blog post, but in a nutshell, ATX® was made by IFS (manufacturers of Barbarian Line & Megatec) after a falling out with Powertec. As I did business with both camps, I was caught in between.
We had requests from Australian IFS customers who wanted to keep the theme going in their gym. For example, if they had the ATX Commercial Power Cage, and wanted a Leverage Gym, they wanted the ATX® Leverage Gym. The same applies to Powertec customers.
Both companies have long and proven track records, so you can’t really go wrong with either choice.
Please note the pictures may feature optional attachments or items which are not included with the unit, this is to show the possible configurations/use of the unit.
How much space do you need to have at the back of the gym to allow for clearance for weight plates on rear lever arm?
When using Bumper plates, you need to have an additional 400mm to allow for the arm carrying the weight. So if you use smaller weight plates you need less.

Cameron –
This is a really cool piece of equipment. It’s super solid in build and really versatile. My only criticisms are that the range of motion on the cable is a little short, so you can’t do things like side lateral raises or lat prayers that require a big range of motion. Regular cable rows and lat pulls are fine, though. I suspect you couldn’t engineer this to be any better without stuffing up the force curve- which is actually pretty good for a lever machine.
You can get creative to fix any of the shortcomings and honestly for the price you can’t really complain, it’s great.
Note from Sam
Yes the range is limited to the arc of the pulldown lever arm. For things like side laterals, I just use a partial range. It is important that you get your starting positioning correct – the included chain length allows you to dial it in. If you start around 25 degrees you still get peak contraction, you just don’t get to rest at the bottom.
So for an exercise like side laterals, this constant tension is not a bad thing.

This machine is awesome. The bench is great. Minimal side shift on use and the machine is the same. Very smooth operation with little to no chatter when using the cable system. Went together really well and the adjustments on the bench are great. Heaps there to choose and it changes quickly. The best “compact” machine I have ever used.
