Converging path for the shoulder

The handles move closer together as the press rises, following the natural arc of the shoulder joint instead of forcing a fixed parallel track. That reduces the shear load at the top of the movement and gives a more complete deltoid contraction, which is why converging geometry has become the standard on commercial shoulder press stations.

Muscles worked

The primary target is the deltoid, in particular the anterior and lateral heads. The triceps assist throughout, and the upper pectorals contribute depending on the starting angle and the range used. The machine fits upper-body strength blocks, hypertrophy programming and structured physical preparation.

Built for continuous commercial use

Tube is cold formed on a four-roller bender to preserve the mechanical properties of the section through the bends. Pivots run on double tapered roller SKF bearings with a closed anti-loosening ring. The paint system is three coats: antioxidant primer plus epoxy polyester powder finish. Seat and back are moulded high-density EVA foam under perspiration-resistant, antibacterial and hypoallergenic synthetic leather. Plate horns are burnished steel with turned aluminium stops, fasteners are grade 10.9, and the unit stands on four non-slip rubber bases with a non-slip platform.

Frequently asked questions

How much load can the SR03E take?

Up to 240 kg of training load, corresponding to six 20 kg plates on each 310 mm pin. Two further horns per side store another four plates each, so a heavy set can be assembled without walking to the plate tree.

Why a converging press rather than a straight vertical track?

A converging path lets the hands travel inwards as the arms extend, which is what the shoulder does naturally. Users report better contraction and less discomfort at the top of the range, and the machine accommodates a wider spread of shoulder widths.

What floor area is required?

The machine occupies 184 x 121 cm and stands 143 cm high. Allow 70 to 80 cm of clear access on the loading side. On upper floors, verify the slab capacity: 160 kg of frame plus up to 240 kg of plates on four feet.

The SR03E is quoted at 2,615 EUR excluding VAT, before delivery and installation. Plates are quoted separately so the loading matches your existing set.
