Innovative Resistance of the Inspire Fitness BL1 Gym

This home gym has a unique leverage system which utilises the body weight of the user. Unlike other similar home gyms, there are no guide rods or weight plates in place.

The leverage system has 15 positions, with each of the positions contributing 10% of resistance using the users body weight. For example, a user of 150lbs would create 15lbs in resistance at position 1. Move to position 2 and this doubles to 30 lbs, and so on. At the maximum 15th level, the total resistance will be one and a half times your body weight. The resistance levels at the lower end are in easy reach of the seat, so you won’t need to stand up and make any adjustments.

Solid Build of the Inspire Fitness BL1 Gym

The frame of this home gym is made up heavy duty 2 x 4-inch Oval 11 Gauge Tubular Steel. The pulleys are made from fiberglass reinforced nylon and the cables have a 2000lb tensile strength. Much of the pressure of the machine is at the pivot points. 1.5-inch precision steel bearings take the pressure at the bench press. Oil impregnated brass brushings take the pressure elsewhere, ensuring a smooth and fluid motion when you use the gym. Also included are the 48-inch lateral steel bar and the 18-inch revolving curl bar.
