Collection: Plate Loaded Machines

Why Choose Plate-Loaded Machines?

Plate-loaded machines bridge the gap between free weights and selectorised resistance, offering smooth, controlled movement with the flexibility to load incrementally. They promote safe strength progression while still engaging stabiliser muscles, making them ideal for both hypertrophy and injury prevention.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Plate-loaded machines offer more natural movement patterns, higher weight capacity, and improved muscle activation. They’re ideal for building strength with progressive overload.

4. What weight should I start with?
Begin with a moderate load that allows 8–12 reps with good form. Increase weight gradually as your strength improves.
