Frequently asked questions

Built for heavy power development, the Garnet Series is constructed from massive 50 x 100 mm heavy-gauge rectangular steel tube framing. The structural integrity is further reinforced using rust-preventative zinc-coated fasteners across the entire frame assembly.

While selectorised units cap off at specific stack thresholds, our heavy-duty plate-loaded lines are engineered for immense loading. Upper-body units like the Chest Press (GSCP), Incline Press (GSICP), and Shoulder Press (GSSP) hold a maximum verified load rating of 300 kg, while our lower-body units like the Linear Leg Press (GSLLP) and Hack Squat (GSHS) support up to 400 kg.

No. To withstand the repeated friction of loading heavy iron, all storage and loading points are engineered with premium, integrated stainless steel plate storage bars. These naturally resist scratching and chipping, preserving both the machine's aesthetics and its structural smoothness.

Hand interaction zones are fitted with commercial-grade, zero-maintenance aluminium bars. These ensure a secure, non-slip tactile connection during max-effort compound lifts without degrading over time from sweat or heavy friction.

Yes, the Garnet Series includes high-performance, biomechanically isolated machines dedicated entirely to posterior chain mastery, such as the professional Glute Ham Bench (GSGHB), the high-load Hip Thruster (GSHT), and the isolated Rear Kick machine (GSRK).

Beyond traditional movements, the lineup features highly innovative structural stations like the Multi Dead Lift machine (GSMDL), the Multi Bulgarian Squat frame (GSMBS), and the unique, multi-angle Circular Lat Pulldown (GSCLP).
