Bodytone Solid Rock SR05/O Outdoor Leg Extension, Stainless Steel Plate Loaded Machine, 151 kg

The Solid Rock SR05/O is a plate loaded leg extension made in stainless steel for permanent open air installation, rated to a maximum load of 151 kg. It belongs to the Solid Rock Outdoor range, which takes the plate loaded architecture of the indoor Solid Rock line and adds the corrosion protection needed for equipment that stays outside all year. The movement is a seated leg extension targeting the quadriceps, guided on rails, with a stainless steel seat and backrest and padded shin rollers.

Plate loading is what makes the machine viable outdoors. There are no cables, no pulleys and no shrouded weight stack, so there is nothing exposed that collects rainwater or grit, and nothing that fails quietly over a winter. Resistance is set with standard olympic plates, which are not supplied with the machine and which are specified according to how the site is supervised. The manufacturer states a fully stainless steel structure; the grade is not published, so exposure to sea air or de-icing salt is worth confirming with us before the order is placed.

The typical buyer is a municipality or a local authority equipping an open access strength area, a fitness trail or a city stadium, alongside campsites, holiday residences and outdoor sports complexes that want equipment their visitors can use without staff supervision.

Technical specification

Specifying an open access outdoor strength area

Open access changes the specification brief. Equipment has to survive unsupervised use, weather and occasional misuse, which is why the outdoor range trades adjustment complexity for durability. Plan the leg extension as part of a lower body pair with a leg curl, and place the group away from the entrance so that queueing does not block circulation. The base is the item most often underestimated: a concrete foundation sized for the machine has to be poured and cured before installation, and the surface around it should drain freely. Plate management also needs a decision at design stage, since some authorities keep plates secured on site while others issue them for supervised sessions only. Send us the site plan and the intended user profile and we will return a free implantation study covering base design, surfacing and spacing.

Frequently asked questions

Are olympic plates included?

No. The machine is quoted without plates so that the load range and the security arrangement can be matched to your site. We can add plates to the quotation on request.

How does the outdoor version differ from the indoor Solid Rock machines?

The mechanism and the plate loaded principle are shared with the indoor line. The outdoor version uses stainless steel construction and reinforced corrosion protection so that it can be left permanently exposed to the weather.

What maintenance does the machine need?

Routine cleaning and a periodic visual inspection of the fixings and the shin roller padding. There are no cables or pulleys to service, which is the main reason plate loaded equipment is chosen for unsupervised sites.
