Description
The Bodytone Solid Grow SG14 is a plate-loaded lat pulldown taking 50 mm Olympic plates, with a recommended maximum load of 54 kg. Professional price: 1,951 EUR excluding VAT.
Vertical pulling without a weight stack
A selectorised lat pulldown needs a stack column, a stack shroud and the floor depth that goes with them. The SG14 achieves the same guided vertical pull with plate loading, which reduces the machine footprint and removes the stack as a maintenance item. The trade-off is the 54 kg recommended maximum, which places the machine firmly in the small-club and studio segment rather than in a high-load strength floor.
- Guided vertical pulldown with high bar and controlled movement path
- Recommended maximum load: 54 kg
- Compatible plates: 50 mm Olympic, not supplied
- Primary muscle: latissimus dorsi; secondary: biceps, trapezius and rhomboids
- Recommended accessory: a 50 kg plate set per machine
Who the Solid Grow range is for
Solid Grow is the entry and mid-range Bodytone line. The SG14 is specified by small and medium sports clubs, independent personal trainers fitting out a studio, and premium home gym installations. In each of those settings the constraint is the same: floor area and budget rule out a full selectorised circuit, but the training programme still needs a proper vertical pull.
Rail guidance and technique
The rail-guided movement fixes the bar path, which makes the pulldown easy to teach and easy to perform correctly without supervision. That is the argument for a guided machine over a free cable station in a studio where the trainer is working with one client while another warms up. The plate loading preserves incremental progression: add a 1.25 kg pair rather than jumping a 5 kg stack increment.

Frequently asked questions
Is 54 kg enough for a small club?
For a studio or small club membership, yes: 54 kg on a lat pulldown covers beginners through to regularly training members. Facilities with advanced or competitive members should specify a selectorised pulldown with a 100 kg class stack instead.
Are plates included?
No. We recommend a 50 kg plate set per machine, which matches the recommended maximum load. It can be added to the same quotation so the machine arrives ready to use.
Is it suitable for a commercial gym floor?
It is specified for small and medium clubs and studios. For a high-traffic commercial floor with continuous use, a selectorised machine built for that duty is the correct specification, and we will propose one on request.
