Bench Press Questions

[IronJuggernaut]

There was a bench press advertised some time ago in which the bar went around your head and was hinged to the frame so that you could work out by yourself with alot of weight and not have to have a spotter, anyone familiar with this, it looked pretty tough.
I believe that it also had the leg extensions on the end as well.
Thanks.

Apparently they are called Lever Gyms, anyone had any experiences with them?

Hi IronFreak,
They are just home gyms where unlike olympic weight sets the components such as the bench press, etc are all connected to a frame usually on some sort of hinge, you still have to lift the weight, but it is slightly more stable and safer when lifting by yourself and not having a spotter. The bench press bar usually goes around the head for instance, so you can lift by yourself.
