Think about what exercises you're planning on, so you can find the right workout bench for your needs. We’ve already discussed the kinds of calisthenics exercises you should be looking to do if you’re a beginner, but if you’re more advanced then there are some different exercises for you to try.

As with any exercise, you want to make sure you get full range of motion (or allowing your joints and muscles to go through a full movement), and when it comes to weight benches, that means allowing your feet to be firm on the ground and the barbell in a place where it’s not too far for you to reach but also not too close. It also utilizes a ladder-style adjustment, which isn’t quite as secure as a lock pin but we don’t think there will be many issues with REP’s benches. You’d be surprised how many benches only adjust to a max of 70 degrees which is too low to hit the shoulder hard. If you’re simply looking to do some light dumbbell presses, step-ups, or other movements that simply need a bench then you can’t go wrong with this one.In addition to the high weight capacity, the bench includes two wheels on the back and a handle on the front leg for easy maneuverability.

It’s great to see a low-cost bench that includes the all-important near vertical or full 90 for seated shoulder presses. All resistance training, whether that’s lifting weights or bodyweight will contribute to your daily calorie expenditure, but bodyweight workouts tend to use high rep ranges or are placed in circuits, which can increase the total energy output of the workout,’ says Neudecker.

Of course if you live in a place where you can’t drill into the wall this might not be the best pick.

It features a height of 17 inches from the floor to the top of the pad, and, most notably, a three-post design with wheels and a handle for easy maneuverability and the ability to tuck your feet uninhibited under the bench.

If you can do 20 of those then you’re ready to move onto doing dips, but be warned you have to be able to control 100 per cent of your own body to do those. One of the biggest is the feet are steel, rather than rubber, which could potentially scratch and damage your floor. A good bench will provide you with a sturdy pad that you actually use as leverage to push against while you exercise,” says weightlifting coach Kate Meier.
