I don’t have a micrometer, but I’d say 11-12 gauge.
Answer #1 on March 12, 2015[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”I see this lacks cushions typically located near the foot plate that press against the calves when laying facing down. Does this affect stability?” style=”arrow”]Foam roller models allow for forward extensions, but won’t allow for comfortable side bend extensions. The plate option allows a bit more variance in body positioning.
Answer #1 on January 13, 2018[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”I am 5ft 2 in. Will this work for me so that the cushion is at the correct place? I find contradictory information in the reviews.” style=”arrow”]Works for me I’m also 5ft 2 in!
Answer #1 on December 29, 2015

I am 5’6″ and it (the cushion) hits me at the top of my leg just below pelvic area. Which for me is Perfect. Not certain if that helps you and where you prefer the cushions to rest.
Answer #2 on December 30, 2015[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What are the overall dimensions? I’m wondering how much floor space it takes up.” style=”arrow”]50″ x 26″ is the floor space this item will take up. For the best customer service be sure to purchase from the Fitness Emporium.
Answer #1 on December 29, 2015[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is the mechanism for moving the unit up and down to adjust height?” style=”arrow”]There is a spring loaded bolt with a large plastic knob on it. You just loosen the bolt, pull the knob out and slide the top up or down to desired height. Then twist the bolt tight again. There are several pre drilled holes that the bolt can be adjusted with.
Answer #1 on April 16, 2020[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”If lifting plates do the handles get in the way? Can you remove the handles?” style=”arrow”]No, the handles do not come off, but plates do not get in the way. The handles are quite wide. They fan out from 20-23 inches from the base to the ends of the handles. I use dumbbells for side bends with no issue of course, but I also use 25-35 pound plates against my chest with elbows out a little bit doing lower back bends straight up and down. I could do 45s as well without issue (but I just find those to awkward and go with dumbbells if I need heavier). I am 6ft 250 pounds. Very solid bench and a great value. I looked for a while and I doubt you will find anything negative about this one.
Answer #1 on January 10, 2018[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”How does it weigh?” style=”arrow”]It weighs just over 70 lbs., but high quality construction and materials and balance, would make you think it is much heavier. This is a 1st class piece of equipment!
Answer #1 on July 29, 2016[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Does it need to be bolted to the floor?” style=”arrow”]Not at all. It’s very stable even with 250lb person holding 90lb (2x45lb) plates.
Answer #1 on December 1, 2019[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Can you do front-facing dips using the handles attached to the pad?” style=”arrow”]It will not support your weight due to the leverage being in the opposite direction that the original setup was designed for. Perform at own risk.
Answer #1 on November 11, 2014[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is the weight capacity for the user plus extra weight such as loaded barbell, plates etc.?” style=”arrow”]Maximum capacity is 300 LBS
Answer #1 on May 14, 2018[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Can I get distance in inches from the foot rest to the farthest point of the cushion, in both fully extended and fully retracted positions?” style=”arrow”]It is 42.5″ in the extended position and 37.5″ in the retracted position.
Answer #1 on November 26, 2018[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Can you do forward facing dips using the handles?” style=”arrow”]I confirmed this can be done. I weigh 165 and had no worries. Hope this helps.
Answer #1 on November 14, 2014[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”Are the handle bars space far enough apart that a larger (230lbs) man’s body can extend below and between the bars? I need to stretch down low.” style=”arrow”]The handle bars are 10 inches long from the base to the grip. The width is 20 inches at the bottom, 21 inches in the middle and 22 inches at the end with the handle bar grip. I’m 5’11” and 207 lbs and have plenty of room.
Answer #1 on March 11, 2018[/vc_toggle][vc_toggle title=”What is width of gap between pads, to allow room for not squishing man parts?” style=”arrow”]The width is 3″. Should be plenty of space for most.
