weight bench
Reddit take
Not enough linked mention summaries yet; the source excerpts below are the evidence.
Pros
- If you have a little money and space buy yourself a used bench (sub $50) and a 35lb or so dumbbell and you can literally work every single muscle in your body quite easily to a pretty high level.
- Loving the bench and Olympic bar so far.
- I have the same bench...it's awesome and I big upgrade over version 1.0 (which I also had).
- im blown away at the quality of mine, zero regrets
- I'm loving flat and incline bench atm and get a wicked pump, it's also way easier to progressively overload
Cons
- I have a love hate for this bench. Wish I woulda got something else but it’s also quite strong and will last forever.
- Parent context: Does it store upright? Reply: I have this bench. It wasn't designed to be stored upright but it will do it, just at an angle and it's pretty unstable and easy to tip.
- Side note: That cheap bench has no business near that beautiful rack. Lol
- I got the same bench! Love it for all incline work. Dislike it for flat though

Just got the same bench! Honestly very impressed with how sturdy and over built it is but still easy to move around. Cushioning is fine not great.
