Lot Description

The Maxim Pull Over Machine is a commercial-grade strength training apparatus designed to target the latissimus dorsi, pectoralis major, and supporting upper body muscles through a controlled pullover motion.

The Maxim Pull Over Machine is a pin-loaded gym machine that facilitates a pullover exercise, involving a semi-circular arc movement from overhead to the thighs, isolating the lats and chest. IT is designed for commercial gyms, fitness centres, or high-end home gyms, offering adjustable resistance and ergonomic features to accommodate users of varying sizes and fitness levels. The machine promotes upper body strength, muscle development, and rib cage expansion, making IT suitable for bodybuilders, athletes, and those seeking to enhance pulling strength or shoulder mobility.

Key Features

• Functionality: Users sit on the padded seat, secured by a seatbelt or thigh pads, and grasp handles or a bar connected to a weight stack or plate-loaded arms. The exercise begins with arms extended overhead, pulling the handles downward in a smooth arc toward the thighs, engaging the lats and chest. The guided motion ensures consistent resistance and proper form, reducing shoulder strain compared to free-weight pullovers.
• Muscles Targeted:
  • Primary: Latissimus dorsi (lats), responsible for shoulder extension and adduction; pectoralis major (chest), aiding in arm movement.
  • Secondary: Triceps brachii (long head), posterior deltoids, rhomboids, serratus anterior, and abdominals (for stabilisation).

  • Benefits

  • Muscle Isolation: Effectively targets the lats and pectoralis major, providing a full stretch and contraction not fully replicated by free-weight pullovers, ideal for muscle hypertrophy.
  • Versatility: Supports strength, endurance, and mobility goals, benefiting sports like swimming, rowing, or wrestling that rely on pulling strength.
  • Joint Safety: The guided motion and ergonomic seat angle reduce shoulder stress, making IT safer than dumbbell or barbell pullovers, which risk overextension.
  • Rib Cage Expansion: The overhead stretch promotes thoracic mobility and rib cage expansion, aiding breathing and posture.
  • User-Friendly: Adjustable settings and easy entry (via foot pedal) make IT accessible for beginners and advanced users alike.

• Approximately 130 cm (L) x 120 cm (W) x 150 cm (H)
