Chest Press Plate Loaded - Nova Series

Chest Press Plate-Loaded Machine — Nova Series

Converging Press Path | Welded Steel Frame | 120kg Build | Model TA05

The chest press is the bench's machine twin — and the Nova TA05 delivers it on a converging plate-loaded path that follows the body's natural pressing arc. All the heavy chest work of a barbell bench, none of the instability and no spotter required.

At 120kg of welded, powder-coated steel, it plants itself. Brace against the reinforced backrest, take the multi-grip handles neutral or pronated, and every kilo you load goes into the press — which is why plate-loaded chest presses anchor the chest section of every serious commercial floor.

Key Features

• Plate-loaded resistance — load Olympic plates straight onto the arms, no stack to outgrow
• Converging press path — follows the body's natural arc for full chest engagement
• Ergonomic multi-grip handles — neutral and pronated pressing positions
• Welded steel frame, powder-coated — 120kg of commercial-grade stability
• Integrated plate storage pegs — loading within arm's reach, tidy floor between sets
• Made to order in your colours — 16 frame and 12 upholstery options

Frequently Asked Questions

What muscles does the chest press work?
Primarily the pectorals, with the triceps and front delts assisting — the converging arc keeps tension on the chest through the full press.

Machine press or barbell bench?
Both have their place — the TA05 mimics the bench's natural arc with a fixed, stable path, so you can press heavy to failure without a spotter and keep the load exactly where you want it.

What plates does it take?
Standard Olympic plates. Bumpers, rubber-coated and iron all load straight onto the arms.

Can I choose my own colours?
Yes — made-to-order units come in your choice of 16 frame and 12 upholstery colours, with logo branding available. See the chart above.

What is the production lead time?
Around 14 days in production plus 4–6 weeks shipping — estimate 8–12 weeks start to finish. Contact us for current lead times.
