Core & Ab Equipment for Sale
Core training equipment is inexpensive, takes little space and gets used constantly, so every facility should have a station or two. This category covers adjustable ab and decline benches, hyperextension (Roman) chairs, and vertical knee raise stations with dip and pull-up handles.
Choose commercial-grade frames (2 x 3 inch or 11-gauge steel), thick contoured padding, adjustable decline angles or arm rests, and a weight capacity suited to your users. Combination VKR/dip/pull-up units give you three stations in one footprint.

More About Core & Ab Equipment
Ab benches range from simple fixed-decline boards to multi-position benches with 8+ angles and a footrest or roller that locks the legs. Decline sit-ups and leg raises are the basic movements; adding a medicine ball or weight plate scales the difficulty. Hyperextension benches (45° or 90°) train the lower back and glutes, balancing all the flexion work.
Vertical knee raise stations use gravity and body weight to train the lower abs and hip flexors, and the added dip and pull-up handles make them one of the most versatile pieces of body-weight equipment. Body-Solid dominates the value end of this category with heavy-duty home and commercial lines; Life Fitness, Precor, Cybex and Hammer Strength supply club-grade units.
Frequently Asked Questions
What ab equipment is best for a commercial gym?
A combination of an adjustable ab bench, a 45° hyperextension and a VKR/dip station covers nearly every core movement. Add a dedicated ab crunch machine if you want a selectorized option.
What is a VKR?
A vertical knee raise station — an upright frame with forearm pads and handles where the user hangs and lifts the knees or legs to train the abs and hip flexors.
What weight capacity should I look for?
Commercial benches are rated 300–600 lb (user plus any added weight). Home-grade units are typically 250–300 lb.
