A PLATE-LOADED FAVORITE
Bring the intensity of a gym workout home with the Plate-Loaded Seated/Standing Shrug. This popular back machine can be found in some of the most iconic strength meccas around the world and has been a Hammer Strength staple for decades.
SIT/STAND FUNCTIONALITY
Designed for versatility, the Sit / Stand Functionality gives exercisers the option to train shrugs from either a stable seated position or a dynamic standing stance. This dual-mode design allows users to isolate the traps with strict form or engage the full posterior chain in a more athletic, real-world movement—delivering strength that transfers from the gym to the game.
MULTIPLE HANDLES
The strategically placed side handles are built to align naturally with the body’s shrugging motion, promoting proper trap activation while reducing unnecessary stress on the joints. Whether seated or standing, these handles give exercisers the grip they need to drive intensity, lock in form, and maximize each rep with precision and control.
SINGLE ADJUSTMENT
At Hammer Strength, we believe in keeping adjustments straightforward and purposeful. The Seated / Standing Shrug features only what’s necessary, which is an adjustable seat for proper movement execution. This minimal design ensures a seamless training experience, allowing exercisers to focus on performance rather than setup.
THE SHRUG - REFINED
This isn’t a one-size-fits-all seated shrug machine. It’s a plate loaded workhorse built for athletes who train with purpose. Whether you’re locked in for controlled, seated reps or standing tall to simulate the demands of heavy carries and contact, this machine meets you where your intensity lives. No awkward barbell balancing. No gimmicks. Just pure trap-focused power with an uncompromising build—Hammer style.
HOW IT WORKS
The side-positioned handles on this Hammer Strength shrug machine aren’t just a design choice — they’re a commitment to better training. Angled and spaced for natural alignment of the traps and shoulders, they help exercisers lift heavy without cheating form. That means less stress on the joints and more stress where it counts: the muscle. Pile on the plates. Stay locked in. Hit traps the right way.
HOW IT'S MADE
Hammer Strength plate loaded machines are made with 11-guage steel frames and electrostatic powder coat finish for maximum durability. There are numerous seat adjustments to allow you to find your perfect position and muscle isolation. Molded foam on the cushions provides comfort, support, and durability. All machines have holes in the feet that allow for easy anchoring to the floor.

ISO-LATERAL ROW
Life Fitness has been a leader in the stationary cycle category ever since the creation of the LifeCycle which was the world’s first electronic exercise bike. The Symbio SwitchCycle is the latest iteration of stationary cycle products with novel features and upgrades. On the SwitchCycle, exercisers can comfortably stand and ride out-of-saddle or ride seated on the comfortable and cushioned seat. The SwitchCycle blends the designs of a traditional upright bike and a group cycle bike to create a versatile cycling experience.
HOW IT WORKS
Two independent work-arms move and abduct to work the Latissimus Dorsi (Lats ) and several other muscle groups. The multi-grip handles let you effortlessly adjust positions to isolate and develop different parts of your back. The slightly angled seat and chest pad allow stabilization throughout the entire movement.
