8 Best Weider Home Gym Equipment You Can Buy

2. weider 2980x home gym

If you're more into an all in one home gym, the Weider 2980X home gym is something worth taking into consideration. 

It doesn't take up much space, and it can provide a good workout. 

A full-body workout.

With its 6 workout stations, you'll be to complete a full-body workout if you like.

• Back
• Chest
• Arms
• Legs
• Shoulders

The exciting part about this weight stack home gym is that it comes with only 80 lbs of weight plates (cement covered with PVC), but the actual resistance weight can go all the way up to 214 lbs.

According to Weider, this is because the cables and pulleys system can also provide extra resistance.

Its space-saving design (only 5.5 ft in depth and 3.1 ft in width) is excellent if you don't have much room. However, it is rather short, and I wouldn't recommend this model to anyone above 6'.

What I don't like about the resistance is that it's not a beginner-friendly system. 

The least amount of weight that you can stack if you're using the lower pulley system is 60 lbs! That means that if you're a beginner, you're most likely, not going to be able to lift that.

In contrast to that, you do get an exercise chart which is great for beginners who don't know how to start.

Just make sure you can lift at least 60 lbs.

I must admit that the Weider power tower is one of my favorites on this list. 

Why is that you ask? 

Well, simply because of the value this one machine can add to your workout. 

This 7 ft tall power tower is a real powerhouse. And it won't take that much room.

The footprint of this thing is just 4.9 ft (145 cm) in length and 3.5 ft (104 cm) in width.

Pretty compact, I think. And considering all that it provides, it's even more amazing.

It's got a pull-up bar, allowing you to work your back, biceps, and triceps. 

It also got a vertical knee station, which will enable you to work your abs, legs, and arms. 

If that's not enough, there's also a dip station and a push-up station.

All of these together, if you'll ask me, can provide a heck of a workout. 

You basically target *almost* every major muscle group in your body with this one machine.

One thing, though. You will have to assemble it, and if you've never done something like this before, you might find it hard to assemble. 

Not impossible, just hard. But you will have to assemble it correctly.

Unless you might find yourself with a rocking power swing, and not a power tower. 

4. weider pro 255 l weight bench

The chance's of you walking into a gym and not finding a weight bench are low to never gonna happen.

A weight bench is a must in any commercial gym. 

And a folding weight bench is a must in any home gym. 

And a good one will be comfortable enough, strong and durable and versatile.

Which is pretty much what we have here. The Pro 255 L uses a vinyl seat and hard cushioning. You might feel it too hard for you, but over time it will lose its tension. 

On another note, this bench has 6 incline positions. 

Flat, upright (90°), and 3 additional incline angles.

Considering the price of this model, it's quite surprising it has this much.

In addition, something else you don't see in a lot of benches at this price range is the leg lock-down bars. 

This adds the safety that is much needed when dealing with dumbbells and weight bars.

Furthermore, this will allow you to do sit-ups and crunches a lot more comfortably.

Overall it's a versatile weight bench that can make your workout a lot more fun and effective, the only way a weight bench can.

And for its price, it's practically unbeatable.

5. weider bungee bench

If you're into low impact workouts and don't want to deal with free weights, then the Weider bungee bench might be the answer for you. 

It's not really a bench in the full sense of the word. It's more like a multi-purpose workout chair.

And the main feature of this "bench" is its chair.

It's got two positions, one is the locked position, and the second is the swiveling.

With a simple handle pull, the chair goes from locked to swiveling. 

This swiveling mode allows a broader range of motion and increases the tension on your muscles.

You'll also find three resistance level's for you to choose from, low, medium, and high. 

And the backrest has two incline positions to help diversify your workout just a little bit more. 

Furthermore, this folding bench has two pulley stations, upper and lower. 

Like many all in one home gyms, you can easily switch between resistance levels and pulleys with a simple unclipping and clipping the handles.

That is why I like this bench so much. It's so easy to use.

Keep in mind, though, that if you're after getting bigger, this bench is not for you. 

It's more for people who want to work out their muscles and keep them the way they are. 

Not for people who want to get bigger. 

6. weider total body works 5000

Just like the Weider ultimate body works, the Weider total body works 5000 is an all in one home gym that uses the weight of your body as the resistance.

And you'll also find here the same resistance bands that add the same up to 50 lbs of resistance just like in the Ultimate.

And just like the Ultimate, the 5000 will be a great solution for beginners and fit users as well.

You can do over 50 exercises on this Weider home gym, which again, it's not the highest number when compared to its competitors like the Total Gym Fit, but when considering its price, it's unbeatable.

The great thing about the type of workout this model offers is the ability to switch between exercises with such ease that you'll get the max out of each workout.

And just like with the ultimate body works, you'll find yourself doing a chest press, and a second later you're already doing chest fly and minute later you're doing shoulders press.

All without getting up or switching cables.

This model will be great for you if you live in a small apartment or if you don't have that much free space in your garage.

However, keep in mind that this home gym is not for you if you're after getting bigger and pumped. 

7. weider pro 265 - bench press

So we already know the importance of having a weight bench to work out on. 

And the Weider Pro 265 is more than a decent weight bench. 

Despite its low price, the Pro 265 can offer you massive value.

True that it only has two seating positions, flat and incline, but the 265 compensate with a preacher curl and leg station. 

So with this one weight bench, you can mainly work on your pecks, biceps, and legs.

Not bad for the price. 

And if you don't already own your own set of weight plates, the included 80 lbs vinyl weight set is a nice touch.

On the downside, this might be a tad short for some. 

The bench's seat is somewhat narrow, and the stands that hold the weight bar are too close to each other.

I have no idea why Weider didn't open the width of this thing.

On the other hand, the bars being close is actually handy when doing a close grip bench press. 

To wrap things up, this is an inexpensive, versatile weight bench, its built is great, especially for the price, and the assembly is rather easy. 

So if you're looking for a cheap, get the job done sort of weight bench, this little baby might be right for you.

8. weider pro 8500 smith weight cage

OK, so this is where things get a bit more serious.

That is if you're up for the ride. 

The Weider pro 8500 smith weight cage is a monster of a home gym equipment. 

We can call it a full home gym set up.

This 9 ft long and 6.11 ft wide machine will be more than enough for most people.

This monstrous smith cage has an adjustable weight bench, chest fly station, rolled preacher pad, four-post squat rack, several pulleys stations, a pull-up station, leg developer, and of course, a weight plate storage. 

The workout possibilities are countless on this thing. 

I must say, though, that for the average user, this type of home gym is more than he or she might need. 

But if you're looking to get a real gym experience, then all you have to do is to ask, and this smith cage will deliver.

The good thing about smith machines is that the motion you do when you're doing squats, for example, is safer because the weight bar is secured between two steel rails that allow only vertical movement.

Which, in turn, makes this machine more user friendly for those who work out alone without a spotter.

The downside is that the warranty is only 90 days for parts and labor.
