The HS-1016 Roman Bench by Hop-Sport, also known as a back extension bench, is excellent training equipment that enables focused and effective workouts for the back, abs, and glutes. Its key elements are the leg lock, hip support, and additional footrests. The wide lower support of the bench guarantees safety during training.
The bench is distinguished by its stable construction, the high quality of materials used in production, and its precise workmanship. During exercises on the Roman bench, you primarily use the weight of your own body. Once you master proper technique, you can add extra resistance with kettlebells or dumbbells.
Home exercise equipment should be functional and take up as little space as possible. The HS-1016 bench is equipped with a quick folding system – simply loosen the pin located in the rear frame and fold the back base. Thanks to this feature, after your workout you can quickly fold the equipment and store it conveniently in a place that suits you best.
The bench is equipped with side handles for push-ups, positioned at the level of the support. Performing push-ups on them allows you to develop your back muscles and add variety to your training routine.
A key advantage of this model is the five-level adjustment of the hip support height. This allows you to adapt the bench to your individual needs. The adjustment is secured with a lock and knob, ensuring that the support will not change position during exercises.
The HS-1016 bench is equipped with a leg lock system designed to secure the calves. You can adjust its height on two levels and additionally customise the distance with a three-level adjustment. The leg lock is an essential element of the training bench, providing a safe and stable position during workouts and proper support while exercising. The multi-level adjustment makes the bench suitable for users of different heights.
The leg lock is covered with thick and durable protective foam. This element effectively protects sensitive shins during strength exercises. The protective foam is made of neoprene, featuring a porous structure that is quick-drying and easy to clean. It ensures stability and comfort during training. The position of the foam rollers can be adjusted on two levels.
The backrest of this Roman bench is made in layers – consisting of a solid board, thick soft foam providing comfort during exercises, and a leather-effect cover. This construction ensures proper support as well as maximum comfort and convenience during training.
The Roman bench supports the development of the lower back (erector spinae), abdominal muscles, obliques, as well as leg muscles – including the gluteus and hamstrings.
