Description

Flat bench for bench press, rows and split squats

A flat bench is part of the basic setup, whether in a home gym, a personal training studio or a box. You use it for bench press – with a barbell in the rack or with Hex Dumbbells. Add rows, flys, pullovers, step-ups and Bulgarian split squats. The backrest is fixed: you lie down and press without setting anything up first.

Steel frame, wide feet, simple padding

The bolted steel frame stands on a 49 cm wide T-foot at each end, with rubber pads underneath that keep the steel off your floor. The foam padding with its black synthetic leather cover is comfortable, but standard. If lots of athletes lie on it every day, the cover wears faster – that's what the HG Flat Bench with its sewn-in pad is built for. For home use and smaller studios, this bench is more than enough.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the bench fit in my rack?
In most, yes. It's 49 cm wide at the feet. The CPR-150 Power Rack gives you 106 cm of inside width, so there's plenty of room on both sides. With the Eco Squat Stand, you simply place the two stands to the left and right of the bench. If you press heavy on your own, go with the rack: the Eco Squat Stand has no safeties, while in the CPR-150 safety straps catch the barbell.
Isn't 47 cm too high for bench press?
That depends on your height. On the bench press you want your feet planted firmly on the floor so you can build tension. Tall athletes manage that fine at 47 cm. As a rule of thumb: sit on a chair or box that's 47 cm high. If your feet are flat on the floor, the bench fits. If you're on your toes, go for the HG Flat Bench at 40 cm or the Competition Flat Bench at 42 cm.
What should you look for when buying a flat bench?
Three things: a steady stance, the right height and padding that matches how you use it. This bench stands on 49 cm wide T-feet front and back. At 47 cm it sits on the high side – your feet should be flat on the floor at this seat height. The standard padding is fine for a home gym; for high traffic in a box or studio, go for the HG Flat Bench with its sewn-in pad.
What's the difference between a flat bench and an incline bench?
On a flat bench the backrest is fixed and flat – for bench press, rows and anything you do lying down or kneeling. On an incline bench you can angle the backrest from a slight incline up to steep, for example for incline bench press or seated shoulder press. For those angles, take an adjustable bench like the High Grade Adjustable Bench – you can angle its backrest in 10 steps from flat up to 75°. If flat is all you need, the fixed bench is the simpler choice.
Which muscles do you train on a flat bench?
Flat bench press mainly works your chest, front delts and triceps. With dumbbells you add flys and pullovers, and with one knee on the bench, single-arm rows for your back. For your legs, use the bench for step-ups and Bulgarian split squats.
How useful is a weight bench in a home gym?
Very. Without a training bench you miss out on bench press, and dumbbell rows, flys or pullovers get awkward. Start with a flat bench. You only need an adjustable one once you want to train incline bench press or seated shoulder press specifically.

Customer reviews

For a home gym, you don't need a bench with wheels and a handle. You need one that stands steady and lets you get going without adjusting anything – that's exactly what this flat bench is. The padding is standard, I'll say that openly. For a few sessions a week, that's fine.
