1RM Ebony Functional Trainer Rack with Storage & Pivot Arms
Product Description
The 1RM Functional Trainer Rack with Pivot Arms and Storage takes our proven functional trainer and squat rack platform and builds it into a complete training station.
This version keeps everything that makes the standard Ebony Functional Trainer Rack popular - a squat rack with premium j-hooks, dual adjustable pulleys, commercial frame construction and smooth cable travel- while adding extended reach through pivot arms, integrated storage, and smarter space use.
The result is one footprint that covers barbell work, cables, and storage — without the clutter.
It’s designed for home gyms that want to maximise every square metre, and commercial spaces that value efficiency without clutter.
Available in 2260 and 2510mm heights.
What The Pivot Arms Add
The pivot arm system increases usable cable range and changes how the machine feels during pressing and fly movements.
- 180° horizontal rotation
- Lockable horizontal positioning (fixed wide, narrow, or free-moving)
- 90° vertical articulation
- Forward cable travel for extended pressing patterns
When unlocked, the arms move with you.
When locked, they provide a fixed cable path for more controlled movements.
This gives you more natural pressing angles, greater stretch in fly movements, and better positioning for athletic patterns — without increasing the footprint of the rack.
Integrated Storage – Built Into The Frame
This configuration includes:
Pegboard Panel
Keeps handles, cable attachments and accessories organised and off the floor.
Vertical Barbell Hanger
Stores your bar securely against the rack frame.
8 x Bolt-On Plate Storage Pins
Keeps plates within reach and reduces the need for separate storage trees.
Instead of building your rack and then adding storage later, this version integrates it from day one, but still gives you the ability to add more storage.
Cleaner layout. Less clutter. Better flow.
What This Machine Is Used For
This is a complete cable-based strength station capable of:
- Squats, bench press, overhead press (rack-based)
- Chest presses and fly variations
- Rows and rear delt work
- Triceps and biceps isolation
- Lateral raises and shoulder work
- Rotational core training
- Athletic cable patterns
- Controlled hypertrophy training
With pivot arms, pressing and fly movements feel more open and less restricted than traditional fixed cable paths.
