Product Description

The GMWD Fitness V7 3-in-1 Bench Press Shoulder Press Machine is a plate-loaded upper-body strength machine designed to combine flat pressing, incline pressing and shoulder pressing into one adjustable station.

Rather than using a conventional free-weight barbell rack, the V7 uses two guided lever arms connected through a stabilizing linkage. GMWD designed the pressing path with a curved, converging motion intended to more closely follow the natural arc of a dumbbell press while keeping the resistance controlled by the machine.

The V7 supports three primary press configurations:

• Flat bench press
• Incline bench press
• Shoulder press

A linked seat-and-backrest adjustment system allows both support surfaces to transition through seven exercise positions. GMWD specifies angles of 0°, 15°, 35°, 45°, 60°, 75° and 85°, covering everything from horizontal chest pressing through near-upright shoulder pressing.

The machine also incorporates 15 adjustable lever-arm height positions. GMWD states that these positions are spaced at approximately 1.12-inch intervals, allowing the starting position of the press arms to be matched more closely to different users and exercise angles.

Each lever arm carries up to 150 lb of added plates, providing a combined plate-loading capacity of 300 lb. The unloaded lever-arm starting resistance is approximately 15.5 lb per arm.

The V7 uses independent plate-loading horns on each side. This allows left and right loading to be controlled separately and eliminates the need for a central weight stack.

GMWD also incorporates multiple handle positions. Different grip heights and orientations allow the user to alter hand positioning depending on the selected press movement.

For additional stability, the V7 uses a reinforced triangular base structure. Rubber contact pads beneath the base help protect the floor and reduce unwanted movement during use.

Integrated rear plate-storage horns provide up to 500 lb of weight-storage capacity, allowing compatible plates to remain organized on the machine rather than being stored separately.

The angled loading posts are designed to make plates easier to add and remove while helping them remain seated during use.

The machine is compatible with both 1-inch standard plates and 2-inch Olympic-style plates, making it adaptable to different home-gym plate collections.

The complete assembled machine measures approximately 65.31 inches long × 58.6 inches wide × 48.15 inches high and weighs approximately 155 lb.

GMWD recommends the V7 for users approximately 4’11” to 6’2″ / 150–188 cm tall, while the machine itself carries a published maximum user-weight rating of 600 lb.

Technical Specifications

Press Configuration

Flat Bench Press

With the support system positioned at 0°, the V7 can be configured for flat chest pressing.

The guided lever arms provide a fixed mechanical path while allowing both sides to be loaded independently.

Incline Bench Press

Intermediate settings include:

15°
35°
45°
60°
75°

These allow progressively more upright pressing positions.

Shoulder Press

The highest setting reaches:

85°

This creates the machine’s near-upright shoulder-press configuration.

Seat & Backrest Configuration

The V7 uses a linked adjustment system so the seat and backrest can be repositioned as a coordinated assembly.

Available Angles

• 0°
• 15°
• 35°
• 45°
• 60°
• 75°
• 85°

This eliminates the need to independently set several separate support points for each press configuration.

Press Arm Configuration

15 Starting-Height Positions

The lever arms can be repositioned across 15 height settings.

Spacing: Approx. 1.12″ between positions

This allows the starting point of the pressing motion to be adapted to:

• User height
• Arm length
• Selected bench angle
• Desired starting depth
• Exercise type

Loading Configuration

Independent Plate Loading

Maximum per Arm: 150 lb
Combined Plate Capacity: 300 lb

Each side of the machine is independently plate loaded.

Initial Lever Resistance

Approx. 15.5 lb per Arm

This is the starting arm weight before additional plates are added.

Plate Compatibility

The V7 supports:

1″ Standard Weight Plates

and

2″ Olympic Weight Plates

This makes the machine compatible with both common home-gym plate formats.

Weight Storage Configuration

The frame includes built-in plate-storage horns.

Published Storage Capacity: 500 lb

These storage horns allow unused plates to remain on the equipment frame when not in active use.

Handle / Grip Configuration

The V7 incorporates multiple grip positions to alter pressing hand orientation.

GMWD specifically describes:

• High grip
• Middle grip
• Low grip
• Vertical-style grip
• Neutral-style grip

This gives users several ergonomic hand-positioning options across chest and shoulder press configurations.

Frame & Stability Configuration

The machine incorporates:

• Reinforced triangular base architecture
• Wide floor contact area
• Rubber base padding
• Plate-storage horns
• Angled loading posts
• Connected lever-arm stabilization

The rubber base pads help protect hard flooring while improving stability during training.

Dimensions

Length: 65.31 in.
Width: 58.6 in.
Height: 48.15 in.

Product Weight

155 lb

Adequate additional clearance should be provided around both sides for plate loading and unrestricted movement of the press arms.

User Fit

GMWD recommends the V7 for users approximately:

4’11″–6’2″

or

150–188 cm

The multiple bench and arm-height settings provide adjustment across this user range.

Maximum User Capacity

Published Maximum User Weight: 600 lb

This specification refers to the manufacturer’s equipment/user rating and should not be confused with the separate 300-lb plate-loading limit.
