PVLP156X

Powerline Vertical Leg Press

A compact, space-saving vertical leg press that builds powerful quads, glutes and hamstrings at home — plate-loaded, with three safety lockout positions, at a value price.

The Powerline by Body-Solid PVLP156X stands your leg press upright to save floor space, so you can train your lower body hard even in a bedroom, basement or garage. Load it with plates, lie back on the supportive pad, and press.

Compare it with every leg press and hack squat machine in our range.

  • Space-saving vertical design: a full leg press in a compact, upright footprint that fits bedrooms, basements and garages.
  • Isolates the lower body: targets your quads, glutes and hamstrings with a stable, supported press.
  • Three lockout positions: dual-adjustable ½″ locking pins give you three safe start and stop points.
  • 182 kg weight capacity: durable alloy-steel construction with a tough powder-coat finish for years of use.
  • Comfortable and secure: an extra-thick back pad, a contoured head-and-neck pad and a diamond-plate, non-slip press deck lock you into position.
  • Plate-loaded: takes Standard (1″) plates, or Olympic (2″) plates with optional adapter sleeves (plates and sleeves sold separately).

The PVLP156X lets you bulk up your lower body in the comfort of your own home. Its unique vertical design reinforces support for your back and hips while minimising the space the machine takes up — so it fits easily in bedrooms, basements and garages where a horizontal leg press never could.

To use it, add plates to the three 2.54 cm (1″) weight posts, lie back on the pad and press upward with your legs. Dual-adjustable ½″ locking pins set three different start and stop positions, while a diamond-plate steel press deck gives non-slip control. The extra-thick back pad and contoured head-and-neck pad keep you in the proper exercise position, nylon bushings encourage a smooth motion, and durable alloy-steel construction with a tough powder-coated finish holds up to long-term use. Rated to a 182 kg capacity.

Olympic adapter sleeves and weight plates are sold separately.

Powerline — strength training at its best.

Why choose a vertical leg press over a horizontal one?
A vertical leg press stands upright, so it takes up far less floor space — it fits in bedrooms, basements and garages where a horizontal sled leg press (like the GCLP100 or GLPH1100B) won't. You give up a little capacity and the hack-squat option, but you keep effective, supported leg training in a compact footprint.

What plates does it take?
It has three 2.54 cm (1″) weight posts, so it takes Standard (1″) plates directly, or Olympic (2″) plates with optional adapter sleeves. Plates and sleeves are sold separately.

How much weight can it hold?
It's rated to a 182 kg capacity, which is plenty for effective quad, glute and hamstring training at home.

Is it safe to use on my own?
Yes. Dual-adjustable ½″ locking pins give you three start and stop positions, and the diamond-plate deck and supportive back, head and neck pads keep you locked into the right position.

How much space does it need?
Just a compact 115 × 120 cm footprint, with an adjustable height of 137–155 cm — small enough for a bedroom, basement or garage.

Which leg press is right for me?
It depends on your space and how heavy you train. The Powerline PVLP156X vertical leg press is the smallest and lowest-cost option: 182 kg capacity in about 115 × 120 cm of floor. The Body-Solid GCLP100 compact leg press adds a calf raise and a 450 kg capacity in a frame 170 cm long. The GLPH1100B adds a hack squat on a heavy-commercial frame, also rated to 450 kg, and the SGLP500 is a dedicated 45° commercial leg press rated to 680 kg. Compare them all on our leg press machines page.

How the PVLP156X compares

A leg press doesn't have to dominate the room. Here's where the compact vertical PVLP156X sits against two larger Body-Solid presses.

Only used a few times as it took 20 days to arrive. The machine i have found is very good and a smooth action once oiled with silicone spry

Excellent delivery time , ordering process very easy. Assembly instructions clear , no problems putting it together. Needs some lubrication on the only moving part as it’s a bit squeaky but overall a great piece of equipment

Really happy with the quality. I was worried it might aggravate my lower back injury - I haven't had it very long, but so far so good. Much prefer to do this over squats.

Great Machine worth it

Machine was simple to put together, is compact if you have only a small area in your home gym and gets great results, saves having all the other machines for leg exercises.

My only issue was that i was missing over 8 Nuts for the machine as i have had happen before when i purchased the cable machine from best fitness

Hi Jarrad, we do apologize for the inconvenience of the missing nuts. Please email the part number as shown in the assembly manual to support@bestfitness.com.au and we can send you the missing nuts. If you prefer, you can purchase them from a local hardware store, send us the receipt and we will refund the cost.

Very happy with this. Easy to assemble. I put some grease with a little spay of WD40 on the shafts to stop from squealing. Works as expected.

POWERLINE VERTICAL LEG PRESS

Absolutely phenomenal piece of equipment.
It is better than a 45° leg press in that your legs, in particular your quads get more stimulation, & activation vs 45° leg press. It does'nt put pressure your lower back. Also it is very compact, & you don't need to load anywhere the amount of weights on it, compared to what you need for a 45° leg press. It was a very smart investment that compliments the rest of my home gym set up.

Legging It !

Have ordered the Vertical Leg Press for myself, female senior and loving it , am having no problems with the weight lifting with the legs , but putting them on is awkward as broke my wrist over year ago and having to get my son to put more weights on for me. It doesn't take up much room and alternate between bike and other exercise equipment. I find the gym intimiding and costly and not so friendly and leg press suits me just fine. I received item quickly and great price and customer service. Im enjoying Exploring how far I can go , and even my cat BOOTS ! has given her paw of approval. As they say - To each their own , and now I own : )
