Product Summary
If you’re looking for a super-grippy flat bench, then look no further than the Fringe Sport Badass Utility Flat Bench. It’s made with Gecko Grip fabric, a special material that prevents slippage of any kind. You could place a fragile plate on this, shake the bench, and have no fear of the plate breaking. Which means your back will stay attached to the bench at all times during a bench press.
The bench is tested to withstand more than 1,000 pounds, perfect for just about every home gym owner, and has a curved handle at the bottom of the bench that can be used to attach battle ropes. It also has a 2-inch cushion, and roller wheels for easy transportation.
The Fringe Sport Badass Utility Flat Bench should fit in most power racks, and at less than $300 with free shipping is a great value for a flat weight bench.
