Marcy Olympic Weight Bench MD-879

Overview

Reach your full lifting potential with the Marcy Olympic Weight Bench MD-879, a masterclass in versatile home gym design. The MD-879 stands out with its unique two-piece architecture, consisting of a heavy-duty independent utility bench and a separate barbell squat rack. This innovative configuration allows you to transition seamlessly from bench presses to walk-in squats and lunges. Engineered from high-caliber steel and protected by a durable powder-coated finish, this system is built to sustain intense training sessions while providing the comfort and adjustability of a commercial health club.

Features and Performance

• Versatile Two-Piece Design: Unlike traditional units, the barbell crutches are not attached to the bench. Move the bench away to utilize the rack as a standalone walk-in squat and lunge station.

• Fully Adjustable Multi-Position Back Pad: Effortlessly transition between incline, decline, and flat angles. These multiple positions allow you to pinpoint specific muscle groups, such as the upper chest during incline presses.

• Integrated Bicep Station: Includes a height-adjustable preacher curl pad and a removable bicep curl handle, specifically designed to isolate and build peak bicep volume.

• Total Leg Developer: Target your lower body with precision. The dual-function leg developer allows for leg curls and leg extensions to strengthen your glutes, hamstrings, and quadriceps.

• Height-Adjustable Barbell Catches: The squat rack crutches are fully adjustable, ensuring a safe and comfortable height for users of various sizes during both benching and squatting.

• Olympic Plate Storage: Stay organized with two integrated Olympic weight pegs on the rack, keeping your plates off the floor and within easy reach during your workout.

• High-Density Foam Padding: Features contoured foam roller pads and high-quality upholstery to ensure maximum comfort and support during heavy lifts.

Why You Should Buy It

Backed by a 2-year manufacturer warranty, this system is a rugged, professional-grade centerpiece for any home or garage gym.
