The Hoist CL-3309 is a selectorized pec fly machine and rear delt station from the Club Line, training both movements from one seat facing a single direction. It suits studios, hotel gyms, and serious home floors that want commercial chest and rear-shoulder work in one frame.
This station covers two upper-body movements that most gyms buy separately. The fly loads the chest through adduction, bringing the arms across the body against resistance a press cannot reach. Reversed, the same arms train the rear shoulders and upper back.
Hoist states the CL-3309 was the first machine to offer both exercises facing the same direction, and that claim is the design brief for the whole frame. You are not turning around and starting over between movements.
The exercise arms are self-aligning and independent, so each side finds its own path instead of dragging the other through a fixed arc. That matters most to anyone whose shoulders do not mirror each other, which is most people past their first decade of training. You can see the rest of the Hoist fitness equipment range if you are pricing a full circuit rather than a single station.
What does a pec fly and rear delt machine work? The fly side loads the pectoralis major with the front deltoids assisting; the reverse side works the rear deltoids and the muscles across the upper back. Pairing them on one frame keeps pressing volume and pulling volume in the same room. The Club Line Chest Press CL-3301 is the usual partner when you want the compound push alongside it.
On this machine the width is the number that decides placement, not the length. The arms sweep sideways, so the wider figure has to be clear on both sides of the seat at chest height, and the frame is more than a foot and a half wider than it is long.
That is the detail the category skips. Every listing sells a fly and rear delt combo as the space-saving choice because it replaces two stations and then leaves a footprint as a line item you look up later. Space saved against two machines is not the same as space available in your room.
The practical version is simple. A shallow room with a long clear wall suits this frame well. A narrow gap between two existing stations does not, however deep that gap runs.
Anchoring makes the decision permanent. The hoist requires the unit bolted to the exercise floor, so the position you choose is the position you keep. Measure the clear width first, place the machine second, then drill.
How much space does a pec fly machine need? Plan the full assembled width as a clear floor, plus room to sit down and stand up at the front. Choose the CL-3309 when you have a wall run to spare and floor depth you do not. If you are laying out several stations at once, the Club Line Lat Pulldown CL-3201 and the rest of the commercial gym equipment range follow the same measuring logic.
Three numbered controls set this machine, and all three come before the weight. Log them once, and every session afterwards starts from the same position, which is what keeps a shared machine usable and a solo lifter honest about progression. The Club Line Mid Row CL-3203 uses the same numbered approach if you are running both.
How do you set up a pec fly machine correctly? Seat first, arms second, weight last. If the movement feels like it is happening at the shoulder rather than the chest, the seat height is wrong, and adding load will not fix it.
Everything below is published by Hoist for this model. Where a figure is not listed, it is not listed anywhere, and this page says so rather than guessing.
Honest fit matters more on a bolted-down machine than on anything you can slide across a floor. This one rewards a specific room and frustrates another.

That last point is worth stating plainly: Hoist publishes no maximum user weight for this model. If your facility needs a documented figure, ask before ordering rather than assuming one. The wider home workout machines range includes lighter options if this frame is more machine than the room needs.
Two Hoist machines cover this pair of movements, and the cheaper one carries the bigger stack. The premium here buys the seating design and the low frame, not resistance, so the choice comes down to whether layout or load matters more on your floor. The HD-3900 Pec Fly/Rear Delt is the alternative worth pricing against this one.
Measure the wall, then add the CL-3309 to your cart.
You order this machine at a live price rather than waiting on a quote form, which is unusual for commercial Hoist stock. It ships to all 50 states from Tennessee.
Returns run 30 days on undamaged equipment repacked in its original carton, with a 25% restocking fee and buyer-paid return shipping. Custom configurations are final sale, so a non-standard frame or upholstery color closes that window before the machine arrives. Full terms sit on the shipping and returns page.
Fitting out a whole room rather than filling one gap? Book a gym design consultation before the floor plan is locked.
Is there a heavier weight stack option for the CL-3309?
No. Hoist publishes a single stack configuration for this model. If your users need more resistance than that, the choice is a different frame rather than an upgrade to this one.
What are the crate dimensions and shipping weight?
Hoist does not publish crate dimensions or a shipping weight for the CL-3309. Confirm delivery access with the team before the truck is booked, particularly if the machine has to pass through a standard doorway.
How much of the stack reaches the handles?
Hoist publishes no resistance-ratio chart for this model, so the stack figure is the stack figure, and nothing translates it to the grip. Some other Club Line stations do publish one, which makes the omission worth knowing rather than assuming.
Can I choose the frame and upholstery colour?
Yes. Hoist lists three frame finishes and eleven upholstery colours for this line. Ask about pricing and lead time when you order, and remember that a custom configuration cannot be returned.
Is a pec fly machine worth it if I already own a chest press?
It adds a pattern rather than repeating one. A press drives your hands forward and shares the work with the triceps and front delts, while a fly loads the chest as the arms travel across the body. If your pressing station is already earning its space, this is the movement it cannot give you.
Does the Club Line work in a home gym?
It does, provided the room can take the footprint and the floor can take an anchor. The frame is built for club traffic, so a single-user home floor is well inside what it was designed to handle.
