Five Integrated Training Stations
Chest Press Station
The traditional press arm is biomechanically designed to concentrate resistance through the chest and triceps.
Multi-position handgrips allow users to adjust their grip to emphasize different areas of the upper body, while the adjustable seat helps establish proper pressing position.
Exercises can include:
- Chest Press
- Triceps-focused pressing
- Other press variations supported by the station
Lat Pulldown / High Pulley Station
The high pulley expands the Body Solid multi station gym for upper-body pulling exercises.
Adjustable hold-down pads help stabilize the user during heavier resistance work.
Exercise options include:
- Lat Pulldowns
- Triceps Pressdowns
- High-Pulley Cable Exercises
- Cable Crossover Variations
Ab Crunch / Mid Pulley Station
The mid pulley provides a dedicated position for abdominal and triceps work.
Its movement path is designed to support a comfortable range of motion for:
- Resistance Ab Crunches
- Triceps Extensions
- Additional Mid-Pulley Exercises
Leg Extension / Leg Curl Station
The integrated leg developer allows users to train both the quadriceps and hamstrings from the same machine.
A biomechanically positioned pivot point promotes natural movement during:
- Leg Extensions
- Leg Curls
This makes the G1B useful for users building a multi station gym workout routine that includes both upper- and lower-body training.
Seated Row / Low Pulley Station
The pivoting low pulley expands the G1B beyond standard seated rows.
Exercise options include:
- Seated Rows
- Biceps Curls
- Upright Rows
- Shrugs
- Leg Abduction
- Leg Adduction
- Other Low-Pulley Cable Exercises
160 lb Selectorized Weight Stack
The Body Solid G1S / G1B platform uses a 160 lb alloy weight stack.
The plates are machine drilled to precise specifications and use nylon bushings to help provide smooth, quiet resistance changes during training.
Weight Stack Details
- Weight Stack: 160 lb
- Resistance Type: Selectorized
- Plate Construction: Alloy weight plates

No-Cable-Change Design
One of the most useful features of the Body Solid G1B Multi-Station Gym is its no-cable-change configuration.
Users can transition between different exercise stations without repeatedly disconnecting and rerouting the cable system. This makes workouts easier to organize and reduces downtime between exercises.
Heavy-Duty G-Series Construction
The G1B uses several construction features found throughout Body-Solid's G-Series home gyms.
12-Gauge Steel Frame
Heavy-duty 12-gauge steel provides structural support while maintaining the machine's compact home-gym design.
2,200 lb Aircraft Cables
Military-spec steel aircraft cables feature a protective nylon sheath for durability and reduced maintenance.
4½" Pulleys
Impact-resistant fiberglass-reinforced nylon pulleys use precision-machined steel ball bearings to support smooth cable movement.
Self-Lubricating Bronze Bushings
Exercise stations use bronze bushings and biomechanically positioned pivot points for smooth shaft rotation.
Powder-Coated Finish
The electrostatically applied powder coat helps protect the frame against scratching, chipping, and peeling during regular use.
Comfort & Adjustability
DuraFirm™ Padding
High-density DuraFirm™ pads provide support during seated exercises and include lumbar support to help reduce unnecessary lower-back strain.
Adjustable Seat
The telescoping chrome-plated seat post provides quick height adjustment to accommodate different users and exercise positions.
