Amazon.com Product Description:
The Weider Max strength-training system packs more muscle-sculpting power per square inch than any other weight system on the market. Boasting up to 240 pounds of quick-change resistance to harness the power of Weider's revolutionary resistance bar technology, the Max employs a unique system of cables, cams, pulleys, and swivels to address all of your upper and lower body muscle groups. This system, called the Compound Resistance System (CRS), serves to compound the resistance of each bar, allowing the workout cable to travel 2 feet for every 1 foot of resistance bar travel. The benefit of CRS is that it allows you to complete each exercise, with a complete range of motion for better results and a wider workout variety. Further, each bar provides smooth, consistent resistance throughout the exercise.

The quick-change resistance system, meanwhile, quickly moves from 5 to 240 pounds of resistance (can be upgraded to 340 pounds), making weight training quick and easy. Thanks to the system, you no longer need to unscrew a bunch of pins or deal with bulky plates between exercises. The quick-change system also makes circuit training easier than ever, because you can move rapidly from one exercise to the next. Best of all, the Max comes with everything you need for a killer total body workout, including a lat tower, a leg developer, and a preacher pad station. You'll enjoy more than 65 club-quality exercises geared to give you a fat-burning, muscle-building upper and lower body workout. It's the perfect blend of high-intensity strength training, fast-paced circuit training, and killer cardio.

Other features include a removable seat, a pair of short and long workout handles, ankle and hand straps, and an exercise DVD. Max home gyms feature a lifetime warranty on each resistance bar. All other components carry a five-year limited warranty that covers defects, materials, and workmanship.

Rating : - Disappointed at first
We spent a while putting this together...when my husband tried it out for the first time the 10 lb. middle bar (the one that you use to insert the weights in) snapped in half. Well we wanted to cry after all of the hard work to put it together. I called customer service & they sent another part. We put it on and it has worked fine ever since. So at least you know if something goes wrong, they will fix it.
