Muscle D 85" Tall Smith Machine - MD-SM85

Muscle D 85" Tall Smith Machine  - MD-SM85

With its 85" height and linear bearings, the Muscle D MD-SM85 Smith machine is made for spaces with low ceilings or compact rooms. The Olympic bar is almost weightless thanks to the hidden counterbalance system, making it perfect for beginners or activities for rehabilitation.

The Olympic bar is a part of the high-quality linear bearings that slide over polished chrome guide rods that is installed on the Muscle D Smith machine. Users of any size can utilize the laser-cut bar holders, which lock the bar in place at the chosen height. In the event that a rep is missed on the bench press or squats, they can serve as a self-spotting device.

For added security, adjustable safety stops are also provided. Additionally, there are plenty of Olympic plates available for easy weight changes thanks to three weight pegs on each side. Purchase an optional Muscle D adjustable weight bench to increase the new Smith machine's training flexibility.
