This unit aligns the user with the handles at chest level, then rocks backwards replicating the movement of a decline chest press providing a more stable and ergonomically correct posture  than can be established with free weights. Independent, converging press arms are counter-balanced to provide a natural motion, minimizing stress to the anterior shoulder capsule and allowing for a low starting weight. Contoured press arm handles provide multiple grip positions for users of all sizes. Generous built-in weight storage make it easy for work out enthusiasts to quickly add plates to the machine, while keeping your gym or workout facility tidy and saving space.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDynamic adjustment, designed to provide a more comfortable and secure workout based upon the body’s natural posture and flexibility is the essence behind the ROC-IT
