Backwards Compatible to a Smith Machine! By engaging the spring pins along the bottom the Jones can be locked into place at three different positions; front, middle, or rear. This allows for traditional Smith Machine exercises, eliminating the need for a Smith! Also a great feature for the beginning lifter! The Versatile Jones is perfect for the novice or competitive lifter, males and females, excellent for trainers and coaches, a must for schools and clubs!
Combining the versatility of a power rack with the safety of a Smith machine, the BodyCraft Jones is ideal for the solo lifter. Unlike traditional power racks, the Jones offers a 25-pound aluminum bar that "racks" into place with a simple twist of the wrist. As a result, lifters don't need a spotter to perform squats, bench presses, or shoulder presses, as the Jones acts as a self-spotter instead. Users can even add adjustable safety spotters for that extra measure of security. Lifters will also appreciate the unit's patented 3D barbell motion, which provides for an almost unlimited array of exercises. By engaging the spring pins along the bottom, lifters can lock the Jones into place at three different positions: front, middle, or rear. This allows for traditional Smith machine exercises without requiring an actual Smith machine. Plus, setting up for the next exercise has never been easier--just raise or lower the bar to the desired starting position, add the desired weight, and lift.
The Jones is constructed of tough 11-gauge steel, with moving parts that glide smoothly on industrial-grade linear bearings and solid hardened steel guide rods. The aluminum bar, meanwhile, offers a total capacity of 400 pounds, making it suitable for a variety of exercises. And at 42 by 83 by 54.5 inches (W x H x D), the Jones doesn't take up a ton of space. Ideal for both novice and competitive lifters, the Jones carries multiple warranties depending on your intended use. Light commercial users will enjoy a two-year warranty on parts and a 10-year warranty on the frame, while residential users will enjoy a lifetime warranty.
