Summary
The GMWD Bench Press Machine V1 is a budget-friendly machine that allows for incline chest press, shoulder press, decline sit-ups, and bench press. While the shoulder press isn’t at the typical overhead angle, the bench allows for good versatility, and the arms are able to move independently of one another, allowing for unilateral movements.
