Hero Heavy-Duty Weight Bench

Meet the Powerlifting Flat Bench's beefier, sturdier (and sexier) older brother. This overbuilt weight bench weighs 88lbs, with a 4.3" thick non-slip pad and 1,000lb max capacity for unmatched stability during big lifts. Overbuilt? Yes. Overpowered? Yes. Overrated? Not in your wildest dreams. Off-roading didn't make the list of what this bench could do, but its sturdy wheels, thick steel & rugged handle still make cruising around with this heavy-duty weight bench surprisingly easy, and the vertical storage? *chef's kiss* Add the optional Leg Roller Attachment, Leg Extension Attachment, or Preacher Curl Attachment (or all three) for even more versatility.

What is a Flat Bench?

What a flat bench is

A flat bench is a fixed, horizontal bench for pressing, rows, hip thrusts, and dumbbell work. Because nothing pivots, a good flat bench is rock-solid and low — often more stable and cheaper than an adjustable, which is why many lifters own both. Competition flat benches match the 17-in IPF pad height for powerlifting.

What to look for

A wide, firm pad (11–12 in) that supports your shoulders without being so wide it limits arm drive, a stable wide or tripod base, a high weight capacity, and sturdy 11-gauge steel. Pad grippiness matters more than you’d think for heavy benching.
