Most stand alone bench presses – whether it be flat, incline or decline – have limited start/stop positions. They may have just three or four that are spaced quite a distance apart. This is fine if you are lifting lighter weights, or you have a training partner to give you a spot. But if you are lifting heavy on your own, it is so much easier to lift off if you have the barbell set as close as possible to the top of the lift.  

While we are on the topic of training alone, having adjustable spotter arms on a bench press is a massive bonus. For a gym owner, especially if it is open 24/7, this may be a requirement for insurance. So even if you have the space and budget for dedicated units, it may be better to get multiple ATX Adjustable Bench Presses.  

The ATX® Adjustable Bench Press features a black design, a barbell with 20 kg plates, safety racks, and the ATX logo on a plain white background.

Other adjustable bench presses may offer position adjustments. There would be very few that would offer such a diverse range. The reason being is that by going from flat to incline, if the base of the bench does not adjust, you may be too forward for a comfortable lift off in incline position.  

Thanks to the ATX Roller Adjustment System (RAS), the ATX Adjustable Bench Press gets you into the perfect position no matter which variant you choose. The base seat is mounted on rollers. You simply grab the knurled handle and release the pop pin with your fingers – only one hand is required. The angles are laser cut into the chrome guide rail making it dead easy for you to set up your pressing position.

Now personally I would not recommend this for a home gym unless you are seriously loaded with a massive shed. My preference would be a power rack or half rack with a bench as it offers much more variety in a similar footprint. But I know that there are people out there who love their benching. Old farts like myself will remember that a crappy bench press once constituted a complete home gym – that was all that was available in Australia years ago! 

Now the ATX Adjustable Bench Press is far from crappy. Although not cheap compared to other bench presses, they do not come close to the quality and features on display here. Given the pressing options and functionality this unit offers amazing value for the gym owner.
