Product Summary

The Tru Grit Flat Utility Weight Bench is the very definition of “solid.” It has a weight capacity of 880 pounds, but the tripod design and rubber feet make us confident that it can hold more than that (though even 880 pounds is good enough for the vast majority of home gym athletes). The rubber feet don’t only add stability, but it prevents the bench from causing any damage to your floors.

Good for people of all height levels, this bench also meets all International Powerlifting Federation standards for weight benches.

The welding and stitching aren’t the best, but with good care that shouldn’t be a problem for home gym use. Best of all, this bench frequently goes on sale for just around $99.
