The compact and sturdy Marcy SB-410 Crunch Board is adjustable to both flat and declined positions for complete abdominal strength building, while facilitating proper form. It can also be used for dumbbell workouts.

The seat is padded with comfortable 2-inch upholstery and the roller pads are made of oversized foam.

The bench is lightweight and portable and includes a unique dumbbell storage rack beneath the seat.

While you can lose some fat with extensive ab training, this bench is designed to build muscalature in the mid-section. Losing fat and inches requires cardiovascular exercise. If you’re up for a 60-day cardio and strength building challenge, check out INSANITY from Beachbody.

Marcy SB-410 Crunch Board Product Features

• Adjusts to flat and declined position for proper abdominal exercises
• Contoured oversized foam roller pads with adjustable lower ankle pads
• Dumbbell storage rack underneath

The Phoenix 99226 has a relatively small footprint for a gym offering such versatility. The selection of features and attachments allow you to work every muscle group. In addition to the Olympic style bench, the 99226 comes with a lat tower, squat rack, leg lift, and preacher curl attachment. The lat tower is an uncommon addition for a bench in this price range and adds significant value to the package.

The bench includes Olympic “sleeves” that can be used over the standard-sized plate poles to accommodate both Olympic or standard plates. Durable 3.0 inch steel uprights can be adjusted to suit multiple users. The bench itself can be set at incline, decline or a flat position.

Assembly for a gym with this many options is time consuming. Plan to spend several hours getting this bench ready for use. Once assembled, the Phoenix 99226 is a solid unit that will get the job done.

The Marcy Diamond Elite Smith System includes a quality multi-purpose bench with preacher curl and leg developer. It features ultra smooth linear bearings that substantially increase the quality of this gym.

The heavy duty steel frame includes a 7-degree slant that accommodates efficient and  natural upper and lower body exercises.

This is an excellent free weight system for the price but there are two important points to keep in mind before purchasing.

First, unlike most of the equipment reviewed here, the build time is very involved — plan to devote 5-10 hours to fully assemble the gym.

Second, you’ll need to buy the weights separately, or use your existing plates. The system uses either regular 1″ weight plates or 2″ Olympic weight plates.

Marcy Diamond Elite Smith System Product Details

• Off the floor base frame design for added stability
• Dual action leg developer with 6 over-sized roller pads and row/curl bar
• Commercial grade pop pin adjustment system
• Adjustable bar catches and safety stoppers
• Diamond plated non-slip foot brace for seated row exercises
• 6 Olympic plate storage pegs
• 2000 lbs tensile strength aircraft cable
• Attractive and durable powder coated finish
