Arm Curl
Muscles Involved: Biceps
The arm curl is a weight training exercise for building strength in the arm muscles, particularly the biceps. The exercise is performed from a sitting position. It involves extending and flexing the arm upwards at the elbow joint, using the handgrips on the two independent levers. Resistance is provided by a weight stack which enables the workload to be adjusted to suit each type of user.
Arm Extension
Muscles Involved: Triceps
The arm extension is a weight training exercise for building strength in the arm muscles, particularly the triceps. The exercise is performed from a sitting position. It involves extending and flexing the arm downwards at the elbow joint, using the handgrips on the two independent levers. Resistance is provided by a weight stack which enables the workload to be adjusted to suit each type of user.
Chest Press
Muscles Involved: Pectorals, Triceps, Deltoids
The chest press is a weight training exercise for building strength in the pectoral and arm muscles. The exercise involves extending the arms in front of the body by pushing against the two levers, which have an independent action. Resistance is provided by a weight stack which enables the workload to be adjusted to suit each type of user.
Shoulder Press
Muscles Involved: Deltoids, Triceps
The shoulder press is a weight training exercise which focuses on the development of the shoulders and arms. The exercise is performed along a guided trajectory, from a sitting position. It involves extending the arms upwards with the hands gripping the two independent levers. Resistance is provided by a weight stack which enables the workload to be adjusted to suit each type of user.
