The Life Fitness Signature Series Shoulder Press is an exceptional machine for developing shoulder strength. With counter-balanced arms to reduce starting resistance, it minimizes strain and helps users focus on proper form. The machine also offers both neutral and pronated hand grips to add variety to the exercise and target the shoulder muscles from different angles.

Key Features:

• Cables: Made with 7×19 strand construction, lubricated, nylon-coated cables that meet U.S. military specifications for strength and durability.
• Adjustments: Gas-assisted springs (where applicable) make seat adjustments quick and easy, allowing for a personalized fit and smoother transition between exercises.
• Belts and Pulleys: Equipped with 4-1/2″ (11 cm) and 6″ (15 cm) diameter fiberglass-impregnated nylon pulleys, featuring sealed bearings for a smooth, efficient motion.
• Cushioning: Contoured cushions are constructed with molded foam, ensuring both superior comfort and durability during use.
• Foot Platforms: Slip-resistant molded rubber foot platforms provide stability and comfort during exercises.
• Frame Description: Features an 11-gauge steel frame for maximum structural integrity. The electrostatic powder coat finish ensures durability and a clean, professional appearance. Standard rubber feet prevent the machine from slipping.
• Hand Grips: Grips are made from an extruded thermo rubber compound that is non-absorbing, wear-resistant, and securely held with aluminum collars to prevent slippage during use.
• Instructional Placards: Easy-to-follow placards provide guidance on proper use and muscle targeting.
• Shrouds: Full front and back shrouds, along with pulley covers, ensure safety and a streamlined appearance.
• Weight Plates and Guide Rods: Features a 7/16″ (11 mm) diameter weight selector pin that magnetically locks in place and is connected to the stack to prevent loss. The incremental weight system allows users to increase resistance in 5 lb (2.5 kg), 10 lb (5 kg), or 15 lb (7.5 kg) increments. The weight plates are solid-steel with self-lubricating bushings for smooth operation.

Additional Features:

• Converging Press Arms: These arms create a natural overhead pressing movement, offering a more comfortable and effective exercise for the shoulders.
• Counter-Balanced Arms: The counter-balance reduces the starting resistance level, making it easier to get started while minimizing strain on the joints.
• Neutral and Pronated Hand Grips: The machine offers both grip positions for added variety, allowing users to switch between different forms of the shoulder press for a more comprehensive workout.
