Body Solid Cable Exercising System

We Have the Greatest Selection of Weight Lifting Equipment

A Body Solid cable exercising system is a great choice of product to use for your home (if you've got the space) or to use in a commercial gym. These products do more than just simply build muscle. In fact, these products help to improve overall health, flexibility, and balance with the same benefits that come from any strength training program: boosted metabolism, stronger lungs, a better circulatory system, and more energy to name a few. With these systems, you'll be able to work your whole body as well as target specific muscles.

These products often come under the label 'functional trainers.' Whatever the label, these systems are essentially two cables that are connected by a series of pulleys to independent weight stacks. The cables can be gripped by the hands or wrapped around different areas of the body. The aim is to either walk away from the trainer or to pull the stack up just like a normal machine. However, because these products use a cable system instead of a bar, balance and steadiness play a major role in lifting the weight. This balancing process develops stabilizing muscles, which are important in building the strength of major muscle groups throughout the body. Additionally, because of the balance required for these motions, working the arms for example, also helps to work the back and the legs at the same time.

Body Solid is an excellent choice for purchasing one of these products. As a leader in fitness machines for both the home, commercial, and institutional uses, they offer three different models with varying sizes and weight ranges depending upon the use.
