The Marcy Diamond Olympic Bench MD-879 is more of a complete home gym package than just a weight bench with a rack for chest presses!
Because the weight bench and the squat rack are independent, you can use them individually. So, for example, the bench can be pulled out and used stand-alone with dumbbells, whilst you can use the rack for squats or lunges. This defining feature gives you many more training possibilities with the benefits of using them together, so you get the best of both worlds.
The bench from the Marcy MD-879 alone is excellent and comes with a smashing capacity of 272 kg (user and load). The backrest adjustment uses super safe sawtooth catches that ensure the back pad is stable and secure. Adjustment wise it can go through the whole range of flat, incline decline and upright positions to provide a wide array of angles to pinpoint specific muscles. Incline bench presses target your chest muscles as presses do; however, the incline bench press focuses more on your upper chest muscles.
A height-adjustable preacher pad comes with a curl handle allowing a better aim at your biceps than regular curls training. The leg developer is perfect for leg training providing the option to do leg curls for your hamstrings and leg extensions for your quadriceps. Both stations are great for working the targeted muscles. Both elements are removable if you don't want to have them on all the time.
The rack is simple yet robust; the heavy gauge steel can hold up to 135 kg and accept either 6-ft or 7-ft standard or Olympic barbells. With secure threaded locking pins, the bar holders are independently height-adjustable every 7 cm (3") from 113 cm to 163 cm high. For added convenience, the MD-879 Squat Rack uprights have one storage peg each on the side to store your standards or Olympic weight plates and avoid cluttering your workout space.
The MD-879 does have everything you could ask for out of a free weight gym.
