How to use it

Use

When installed next to weight stations or pull-up bars, this bench becomes a multi-functional support: users can place their belongings on it between sets, sit on it to catch their breath, or lie down to perform targeted stretching exercises, such as hamstring and calf stretches. Its stable, non-slip base also allows users to perform sheathing movements, dips or push-ups, thus enriching the range of exercises that can be performed without the need to install additional equipment.

Function

Beyond its role as a simple seat, this backless bench fully assumes its function as a modular workout station: it promotes recovery between efforts, provides a secure support point for stretching and allows you to diversify your muscle-strengthening exercises outdoors, while remaining durably resistant to bad weather and intensive use. o4-mini
