Muscle D Elite Leverage INcline Shoulder Press - PL-EL-ISP
The upright position makes the Elite Leverage Incline Shoulder Press very easy to mount and comfortable to use. The back pad has an angled back at 20 degrees to stabilize the user’s torso during presses, minimizing the hyperextension of the lower back. The horizontal, angled grips and independent arms allow for a natural overhead, convergent, iso-lateral movement.
Load your plates onto each presser arm's weight horn, with 2 extra storage plate pegs on each side of the machine for those plates not in use. The welded heavy-duty 11-gauge steel frame has a sleek appearance created through oval tube steel. Electrostatic powder coating insures the frame finish is scratch-free and ding-resistant for long-term, heavy use. A high-density, molded foam seat and back pad offer greater comfort & durability that complement the spring-assist adjustable seat to accommodate any user height.
The Muscle D Elite Leverage Shoulder Press is made for intense, powerful strength training at home or in commercial gyms.
