Weider Platinum Plus Home Gym

Date Published: 7/12/05

Weider takes control of your workout to another level with its new Platinum Plus Gym. The Platinum Plus uses a unique digital control resistance that gives you fingertip commands on its high-tech control panel.

While most gyms limit resistance adjustments to 5 or even 10-pound increments, the digital control resistance system can move in one-pound increments.

Using Platinum Plus personal trainer programs, users can select workouts based on their individual goals and abilities. The Platinum's digital personal trainer can even set up entire fitness routines.

Other innovative features of the Weider Platinum Plus Gym include a system that is upgradeable to 340 pounds, offers nine goal-specific workout programs, and allows complete range of motion in resistance tables. Not only that, but your workouts will go faster with the time saving, quick change motorized resistance adjustments.
