What are Some Workouts I Can Do With the Stack Home Gym?
When you get your Marcy Pro stack home gym, you’ll get a complimentary booklet with exercises you can use to get started using your new equipment. However, we have other workouts you can try to enhance your stack home gym workout.
Here are three more workouts for Marcy Pro’s stack gym:
1. Pectoral Fly
MUSCLES TARGETED: The Pectoral Fly, also known as the chest fly, targets the pectoralis major muscles (or chest muscles).
HOW TO DO Pectoral Flys / Chest Flys: Sit on your stack home gym facing away from the weight stack. Grab each pec fly arm so that your hands point up and your elbow is at a 90-degree angle. Push the press arms together until they touch, then return to the starting position.
2. Tricep Cable Push-Down
MUSCLES TARGETED: Tricep cable push-downs primarily target the triceps (the long head, lateral head, and medial head). This exercise also activates your forearm muscles to a lesser extent.
HOW TO DO Tricep Cable Push-Downs: Attach your lat bar to the upper pulley of your Marcy Stack Home Gym. Face the weight stack with your legs shoulder-width apart, with a slight bend at the knees and an overhand grip on the lat bar.
With the overhand grip on the lat bar, your arms should be against your rib cage, with your grip being parallel (or close to parallel) with your chest (your resting position). Push down on the lat bar using your triceps by extending your arms directly below the starting position, then return to your starting position.
3. Cable Hip Adduction (Inner Thigh Leg Cross)
MUSCLES TARGETED: Inner Thigh Leg Cross / Cable Hip Adductions target the muscles of your inner thigh (adductor longus, adductor brevis, and adductor magnus)
HOW TO DO Inner Thigh Leg Crosses: Attach your ankle strap to the lower pulley of your Marcy home gym and your ankle. Stand with your shoulder pointing towards the preacher curl pad (you can use the pad for stability). Allow your strapped ankle to be pulled out by the pulley so that you are putting all your weight (and essentially standing) on the unstrapped ankle.
You can also purchase a single grip cable handle, triceps rope, and other accessories separately to complete even more exercises with the Marcy Pro stack home gym.
