What is a functional trainer?

A functional trainer is a cable machine for natural, free movements like squats, deadlifts, rows, and chops, instead of one fixed path.

The Dynamic Fluid P928 is a ground based functional trainer: the cable comes from a water tank at floor level, with ten levels and three load ratios.

What is a squat press machine?

A squat press guides your body through squats, overhead presses, and lunge presses. The Dynamic Fluid P918 uses fluid resistance that works as you push up and takes no load on the way down.

Is a squat press the same as a leg press?

Not quite. On a leg press you sit and push a platform with your legs. On a squat press like the P918 you stand and press up through your whole body, closer to a free squat, with a guided path for balance.

How does fluid resistance work?

Paddles turn inside a sealed water tank. The harder and faster you move, the more the water pushes back, so the load follows your effort. You change the level instead of changing plates.

Do I need weight plates?

No. The P918 and P928 use water resistance, and the B2 uses elastic cables. There are no plates to buy, load, or store.

How much space does a strength machine need?

The P928 measures 57.1 x 31.7 x 53.2 in and needs a clear area of 104.3 x 79.9 in. The P918 needs 114.6 x 79.9 in and stands 96.5 in tall, so check your ceiling. The B2 bench is 46.1 x 13.4 x 15.7 in.

Are these machines good for beginners?

Yes. Fluid resistance follows your speed, so you control the effort. Start on a low level, move slowly, and add levels as you get stronger.

Do these machines need electricity?

The Dynamic Fluid P918 and P928 monitors run on D batteries, so no outlet is needed. The WalkingPad B2 uses cable resistance that you set with a knob.

Can I pay over time or with HSA or FSA?

Yes. Shop Pay Installments lets you pay over time, with monthly payments and 0% APR options for eligible customers.

Some strength machines may be eligible for HSA or FSA payment through Truemed. See how it works on our HSA/FSA page, or ask us before you order and we will check your product.
