Competition Olympic Flat Bench Press – Legend Fitness (3906)
Bar and Weight Plates NOT Included
MADE TO ORDER WITH FACTORY LEAD TIME
Legend Fitness 3906 Competition Flat Bench Press – The 3906 Barbell Flat Bench from Legend Fitness is a full commercial rated piece of gym equipment designed for the flat bench press exercise performed under very heavy loads during strength training and competition. Along with the squat and the deadlift, the bench press rounds out the three pillars of power lifting. And, for most gym goers, the bench press is quite literally the "benchmark" of personal strength. The Legend 3906 Flat Bench Press is built specifically with all the right measurements to meet IPF (International Powerlifting Federation) standards for bench press competition. Meaning, the bench length, width, and height, pad surface height, pad dimensions, pad head extension from center, and inside width between bar catch uprights all conform to IPF Technical Rule Book dimensions.
Built to Last. The 3906 Flat Bench Press is over-built from 3-inch square 11-gauge steel which is fully welded at all points to provide the ultimate structural strength and rigidity far exceeding what is needed for the heaviest of lifts during weight training or competition. In fact, the entire bench only has two frame bolts which secure the spotter stand (in the event that the gym owner wants to remove it). Tall bar catch tabs make it easier to rack the weight, especially during final "max" sets when muscles and arm stability are taxed and a quick and safe backwards rack execution is required. Upright posts adjust with secure pop-pin in one-inch increments to allow bar height from 29 to 44 inches, providing the right customized starting position for lift off. Posts and bar catches are chrome plated and feature laser cut hole numbering for easy height identification every time. Polymer wear guards are placed on the inside of bar catches to protect bar knurling, and on the side of the upright posts to protect powder coated finish from scratches due to Olympic plates being propped up against the machine during weight load exchanges between sets. The pad is constructed using 32 oz. vinyl that is double stitched over very dense 8 lb/cu. ft. foam padding, but sized to not get in the way of shoulder blades.
Why is a spotter stand important when bench pressing? Just as a solid bench is a key requirement for lifters when getting under a heavy load, a stable stand is equally important for the person spotting the lifter. The role of the spotter is to be there for the lifter to assist in the event that something goes wrong or if they can't complete a lift, which gives the lifter confidence to lift more than they normally would. A spot can be as simple as two fingers barely grazing the bottom of the bar on the way up, or as all-engaging as a full double-fisted grip on the bar pulling upward with maximum strength. In the event of the latter, spotting with feet on the ground can be very difficult, especially if the bar load is heavy, because all the pulling strength comes from smaller muscle groups such as shoulders and arms. This can put the spotter at danger of hurting his or her lower back, not to mention being unable to pull the weight off the lifter on the bench. By standing elevated at the rear of the bench, the spotter can utilize larger, stronger muscle groups much more akin to those used for a deadlift (back, traps, and legs), providing strength and safety to the spotter and protection to the lifter when a bench press lift "goes south". The Legend 3906 Flat Bench Press features a generous 30" x 18" spotter platform with a diamond plate surface pattern for a sure-footed stance.

- This Legend Fitness piece will arrive fully welded and / or built in one piece. It is the customers responsibility to make sure the delivered dimensions of each piece will allow it to be moved to the preferred location in your home or business. Some fully welded pieces can be built to bolt together upon request. This may require an upcharge. Please consult with a salesperson if you have doubt before placing the order.
- Pallet Preparation and Handling: Legend Fitness ensures the highest possible care and handling of their equipment while in freight transit via trucking companies. Each piece is secured to the lower pallet with brackets that go over the feet (or lower base supports) and are then bolted to the top of the skid. This prevents the piece from shifting or sliding at all while the pallet is being moved. The equipment is then bubble wrapped and shrink-wrapped to protect upholstery and powder-coated paint finish. Finally, a wooden fence is built around the perimeter of the pallet which helps prevent contact with other palletized items during transit, further protecting the piece of equipment. This special handling can add over 100 pounds of shipping weight per piece to the overall freight shipment, and takes up more physical space inside each truck trailer. When shipping multiple pieces, generally each piece of equipment will ship on its own semi-crated skid, unless the individual pieces are smaller and can be bolted side by side onto a single pallet. While logistics for a fully built machine may be more costly than a piece of equipment that ships "knocked-down" in several pieces inside a cardboard box, the end result is having your American-made investment arrive intact and in the same beautiful condition it was when it came off the factory assembly line at Legend's manufacturing facility in Tennessee.
