Adjustable SportsbenchRetail price: $695.00Non-Trainer Price: $695.00Only pencilnecks go through life with a flat back and butt. Your athletes do not. So, how can you ask them to lift heavy weights while lying on a flat bench? “Flat” just isn’t the way Mother Nature made athletes! Granted, it’s in the rules of powerlifting that the bench for bench pressing be flat. Granted, you’ve grown used to it. Some of you will never change. However, the flat bench is NOT the best way to go! The revolutionary SportStrength Sport Bench is! Chin Dip MachineNon-Trainer Price: $1,495.00220 lb. steel weight stack 3 sets of hand grips for pull ups. Pull up arm is removable with 3 sets of holes for different height adjustments. Colorado Power MakerNon-Trainer Price: $2,639.00Squats, cleans and rack jerks are mainstay exercises for all athletes. But for most, there is a point at which the benefits derived from performing regular, straight up-and-down movements must end. At some point prior to your first game, more specificity of movement in your speed and explosiveness training is called for. To illustrate, let’s talk football for a moment. Coming off the ball with a tremendous follow-up jam to the man in front of you is quite another. It calls for a highly specific movement pattern that is totally explosive and well-timed in order to maximize the sum of the forces from both your leg drive and your arm drive.
Competition Bench PressNon-Trainer Price: $750.00When the sport of powerlifting was born in 1964, there had to be some rules made. The first president of the International Powerlifting Federation, Clay Patterson, decided that bench press benches had to be made according to the rules in the interest of promoting standardization in the fledgling sport. Nowadays all benches are made to conform to the rules of powerlifting. Glut-Ham MachineNon-Trainer Price: $1,095.00Picture this: The great Olympic weightlifter Vasily Alexeev’s ponderous body draped over a gymnastics long horse with his feet wedged between the stall bars of an unbelievably archaic training gym in Moscow’s Lenin Institute of Sport. With four hundred pounds precariously perched behind his head, he explodes for five reps of back raises. There is virtually NO hip extensor involvement, only pure erector spinae contraction. That means 1) tremendous low back limit strength and speed-strength is developed far beyond what any other low back exercise could possibly accomplish, and 2) virtually NO trauma to the tenuous intervertebral discs of the lumbar spine, which is something no other low back exercise ever conceived can claim. MantarayNon-Trainer Price: $44.90For maximum growth in arms, chest and all other parts of your physique, ask any trainer, the squat is "The King of Exercises"! It's true, those nice comfortable machines work the legs. But for that anabolic edge, all the experts agree; the squat is capable of inducing more and faster muscle growth than any other exercise. Manta Ray is the most significant advancement in free weight training in 75 years. It is a semi rigid device that snaps onto any bar and helps you acheive the full advantage of performing the high bar squat with the proper upright posture and without discomfort. Manata Ray's superior load distribution principal transfers the weight across your Trapezius muscles, eliminating neck pain allowing you to focus on the movement. Great for Lunges too.

Pro-Ab BenchNon-Trainer Price: $695.00Sometimes the old way is the best way. But sometimes it’s not. Sport scientists agreed way back in the 50’s that “sit-ups” were bad for your back, and that “crunches” performed with bent knees were better. Many different abdominal exercise devices have been marketed over the past fifteen years, all of which simulated the “crunch” technique. Traditional Power RackNon-Trainer Price: $695.002 x 3 POWER RACK 30" clearance between front and rear 2" X 3" 11 gauge Uprights. Turn lock bar holders can be adjusted in 3" increments to perform a variety of power exercises with the assurance of sturdy, cold rolled 1 1/4" diameter safety bars. Chin bar is a standard feature. Can be made to fit any ceiling height. Optional plate storage available.
Twin Stack Combo Lat Pull/Low RowNon-Trainer Price: $2,995.00Has it ever occurred to you that the technocrats -- the “Denizens of the Drawing Board” who have until now ruled the sports training equipment industry -- have been pulling the wool over your eyes? You have two hands right? Two arms, two lats. Two sides of your body. So, ummm, how come you only have one handle to pull down on? And only one weight stack? Good question, right? It’s like this: Some sports movements require that one limb or single-limb movement be stressed at a time. At SportStrength we believe that this should be more the rule than the exception. That’s why we developed the TwinStak® concept. You’ll see it on all of our weight stack equipment. Check out our TwinStak® Ab Machine. There are several others to follow shortly. Twin Stack Lat PullNon-Trainer Price: $2,495.00When you do pulldowns for your lats using a conventional bar (tapered at each end), your hands are what? Three feet apart? What does that do to 1) your range of motion, 2) your flexibility, 3) your lats (the biceps are the weak link in the pulldown), and 4) your sports specificity? ZILCH! Or nearly so. The same holds true for doing low rows (sometimes called seated long cable pulls). Ultimate Power RackNon-Trainer Price: $1,525.00Every strength coach in the world knows the value of the power rack. There are countless uses for them, and they offer your athletes nearly total safety while performing literally dozens of critical exercises. But not all power racks are equal. So, you think you know what a good power rack is, eh? Well, you ain’t seen NOTHIN’ yet!
