The base of the Manta Ray Bench is our most streamlined to date, with adjustments made easily via a new ladder system that’s internal to the tube, minimizing the total number of parts involved. As an incline + decline weight bench, this model also offers more configuration options than any other Rogue bench, with 5 seat positions and 10 back pad positions, all indicated by laser-cut markings along the steel tube:

Seat Angles: -20, 0, 10, 20, and 30 degrees

Back Pad Angles: 0, 20, 30, 37.5, 45, 52.5, 60, 67.5, 75, and 85 degrees

Shaped like a manta ray (hence the name), the bench’s innovative front foot design improves the overall stability of the unit when used in the decline position, while still maintaining the benefits of a 3-leg format; namely, minimum interference with the athlete’s feet when benching. Each bench is manufactured in the USA, and includes a 3x4” 7-gauge steel frame with an MG Black powdercoat finish, laser-cut Rogue branding, and a set of custom rubber feet for floor protection. The unit weighs in at 140 LBS and fills a 57” x 24.75” footprint. As a bolt-together bench, some assembly is required. A 3/4” Wrench or Socket and 7/32” Hex key / Allen wrench will be needed (not included).

A removable foot catch is also available as an optional add-on, providing security for the user’s feet during decline movements.

Along with a convenient set of premium caster wheels, the Manta Ray Adjustable Bench comes with an injection molded handle built into the front foot, making it easier to elevate and roll the entire unit to a new location. Like our Adjustable Bench 3.0, the Manta Ray can also be stored in an upright position, with no need for an add-on bracket. When folded into this position, the unit sits on protective UHMW padding, preventing any direct metal contact or creasing of the bench pad.

The Manta Ray Bench comes with a new version of our standard pad, measuring 12” wide (compared to the 11” standard pad on the Adjustable Bench 3.0) and featuring a grabber-style vinyl exterior. The gap between the seat and back pad is roughly 1 inch, allowing athletes to program their functional presses and arm movements through a full range of inclines without dealing with the discomfort of a disjointed bench.
