Weight bench

A weight bench is a piece of strength training equipment that can be used to perform a variety of workouts at home. There are several types of bench, including flat benches, incline benches and multi-purpose benches, each of which can be used to target different muscle groups and exercises. Your choice of weight bench will depend on your training habits and goals, as well as the space you have available.

What is the purpose of a weight bench?

  • Versatile equipment: the bench allows you to perform multiple exercises that target upper-body muscles including biceps, triceps, pectorals, abdominals and shoulders.
  • Achieve different fitness goals: the weight bench allows multiple exercises to achieve different goals such as muscle development, fat loss or improving overall strength.
  • Support and stability: the bench provides extra support and stability, allowing you to concentrate on performing your exercises rather than on your balance.
  • Multiple uses: it is generally used with free weights, such as dumbbells or barbells, but can also be used with an integrated bar and weight discs to perform guided exercises. For a complete workout, take a look at our dumbbells category, which offers a wide selection of free weights for your bodybuilding exercises.

What exercises should I do?

With this equipment, you can perform different exercises that target specific muscle groups. Among the most popular exercises are :
  • Bench press for the chest
  • Bust raise for abdominal muscles
  • Leg extension for quadriceps and hamstrings
  • Chest or neck pull for the back
  • The curl for the biceps
Many bodybuilding exercises can be performed with dumbbells to increase the intensity of the workout. For example, the bench press can be performed with dumbbells to work the shoulder stabilizing muscles. To discover other effective dumbbell exercises, take a look at our article on the 8 best dumbbell exercises.

Which weight bench to choose?

  • Flat bench : This is the basic, horizontal weight bench, with no incline or decline. The flat bench is ideal for exercises requiring a flat, stable surface, such as the famous bench press.
  • Inclined bench : features a backrest that can be adjusted to different angles, typically between 0 and 90 degrees. The incline bench allows a greater range of motion and can target the upper chest muscles more effectively than a flat bench.
  • Multi-function bench : The multi-function bench features an adjustable leg developer for working the lower body, and two elastic straps for the upper body, giving even greater variety in the exercises that can be performed.
  • Weight bench with bar support: This type of bench is a more advanced option that includes an integrated support to accommodate a bar and a set of weights. This inclined steel Olympic weight bench with bar support allows you to perform a wider variety of bodybuilding exercises and can accommodate heavier weights, making it suitable for more advanced weightlifters.

How do I install a weight bench?

The process of installing a weight bench varies according to the type of bench you have. Some benches are designed to be easy to assemble, while others may require more time and effort. In general, it's best to read the instructions carefully and follow them step by step to ensure that your weight bench is correctly assembled and ready to use.
