3 Must-Try Weight Bench Exercises to Boost Your Home Workouts
In strength training, small adjustments can make a big difference. One of the most overlooked pieces of home gym equipment—the weight bench—can completely transform the way you train. It’s not just for presses or step-ups; it helps you engage muscles more precisely, improve your form, and get better results.
Here are three exercises that show why the GXMMAT Weight Bench is a must-have for every home gym.
1. Incline Dumbbell Press
How to Do It
- Adjust your GXMMAT Weight Bench to a 30–45° incline (0–90° adjustable).
- Sit on the bench with your feet firmly on the ground and your back pressed against the pad.
- Hold a dumbbell in each hand beside your chest. Exhale and press upward until your arms are fully extended.
- Inhale as you lower the dumbbells slowly, maintaining tension in your upper chest and shoulders.
Why Choose the GXMMAT Adjustable Weight Bench
Multiple adjustable angles allow you to precisely target your upper chest and front delts. The H-shaped steel frame and thick padded seat offer solid stability, so you can press confidently without worrying about wobbling or imbalance.
Training Tip: Perform 3–4 sets of 8–10 reps on chest or upper-body days. To increase difficulty, try drop sets or tempo training (1-second up, 3-seconds down).
2. One-Arm Dumbbell Row
How to Do It
-
Set your GXMMAT Weight Bench to the flat position.
-
Place one knee and the same-side hand on the bench for support, keeping your back flat.
-
With the other hand, pull the dumbbell from the floor up toward your waist, keeping your elbow close to your body.
-
Squeeze your back at the top, then slowly lower the weight.
Advantages of the GXMMAT Adjustable Weight Bench
The sturdy triangular base and wide seat provide exceptional stability, reducing body sway and helping you focus tension on your lats. Rubberized anti-slip foot pads protect your floor and keep the bench from moving during training.
Training Tip: Perform 3–4 sets of 10–12 reps per side. Alternate this exercise with incline presses for a balanced upper-body workout.
3. Bulgarian Split Squat
How to Do It
-
Set your GXMMAT Weight Bench flat. Place one foot on the bench behind you and step the other foot forward about one and a half leg lengths.
-
Keep your torso upright and hold a dumbbell in each hand at your sides.
-
Lower yourself until your front thigh is parallel to the floor and your rear knee nearly touches the ground.
-
Push through your front heel to return to the starting position, feeling your glutes and quads engage.
Highlights of the GXMMAT Adjustable Weight Bench
The ideal bench height and reinforced steel frame provide a secure base for balanced and safe movement. Non-slip foot pads prevent shifting, so you can stay focused on lower-body activation.
Training Tip: Do 3 sets of 8–10 reps per leg. Include this move on leg day or full-body sessions. To boost glute and leg engagement, try adding a 2-second pause at the bottom of your last set.
Final Thoughts
The GXMMAT Weight Bench isn’t just convenient—it’s a tool for progression. Multiple angle settings + sturdy steel frame + stable support = better form, enhanced muscle activation, and more noticeable training results.
Whether at home or in the gym, mastering the GXMMAT weight bench can take your strength training to the next level.
