Upper Body Plate Loaded Machines 

From chest presses to rowing, our selection of plate-loaded machines will help you sculpt your upper body with ease.

Our plate-loaded row machines and chest press plate-loaded machines are engineered to target specific muscle groups so you can effectively build up your strength-based resistance.

Lower Body Plate Loaded Machines

Want to elevate your leg workouts with a weight plate machine? Compound movements like leg presses are a great way to build strength and muscle effectively. For example, a plate-loaded leg press machine works not only your hamstrings and calves but also your quads and glutes. 

Our plate-loaded hip thrust machine is designed to simultaneously train your glutes, hamstrings, and lower back. By targeting multiple muscle groups in one go, you can do a full-body workout with just one machine and a couple of plates. This both increases the efficiency of your training and challenges you to push yourself.

FAQs

Interested in knowing more about the benefits of plate-loaded machines for commercial and home gym use? Read our FAQs to answer any questions on your mind.

Which weightlifting equipment is better for strength training — plate loaded machines or free weights? 

Both free weights and plate-loaded machines are great for building up muscles, but there are some key differences in how each option impacts your performance in the gym. 

Free weights allow for an increased range of motion and can activate more stabilising muscles for compound movements. However, they require a lot more stabilisation and control. This potentially makes them less safe for heavy use, especially if your muscles are already tired or you’re new to strength training.

On the other hand, plate-loaded weight machines are engineered to facilitate controlled movement This makes them ideal for helping beginners perfect their form. Their focus on specific muscle groups is also extremely useful for directly targeting your weaker areas. 

Overall, the adjustability of plate-loaded commercial gym equipment allows for flexible training without compromising on safety, stability or support.

What are the differences between a pin and a plate loaded machine?  

Many gym machines, such as a chest press or leg press, are available with both plate and pin-loaded designs. 

Plate-loaded fitness equipment requires you to load your chosen plates onto the machine before you start training. This allows for increased customisation of your load for a more personalised workout. If you have a good variety of weight plates available, you can perfectly adjust your load according to your strength and performance level. 

As with machines that use plates, pin machines are also designed to be adjustable and can handle a variety of weight loads. However, your weight choices are limited to a range of built-in options that you select by pushing a pin into the weight stack. While this method is a lot easier than manually loading your weight plates, it restricts your choices and can be less accommodating of different users’ strength levels.
