Chin/Dip Assist Features


This assisted chin dip machine keeps training flowing. Folding arms let you switch from dip to chin-up without getting off the machine, so you keep moving.
The first win is repeatable positions. With the right help, your shoulders stay set and your body stays steady. Train:
Negatives build strength, but only if they stay controlled. The GR636 supports smooth, safe motion for heavy eccentrics. The knee pad lever is strongly built and supports up to 220 lbs. The machine is commercial grade and rated to hold over 1000 lbs, so it feels planted when you slow the rep down.
