Is 210lbs enough? Is it easy to exceed the capacity of this machine? (naturally)

I am 140 lbs and it is enough for me. For comparison when I am in the gym I do flat bench dumbell presses with 55lbs for 4 sets of 8 to 10. I use about 130lbs of the stack to accomplish the same thing. Hope that helps and provides some reference point.

For some movements yes, others no. It's easy to max out the stack on chest press and leg press for men.

I've had mine about a year now and I suppose it would depend on the weight of the person using it and how much you use the machine. I'm only 1281lbs and have had any issues with this machine as yet.

I'm sure that would be no problem. I weigh 210 and it is as sturdy as can be for me even when I've got another 150 lb of weight I'm holding. It's definitely a solid bench.

I'm 210. I don't know the max. It is a very heavy bike. +/- 6- lbs I believe. Good bike. Lots of fun.

This machine can hold 5-6 45's per side(Which is 450-540lb). I wouldn't recommend it though. This machine is more than enough for any weight lifter unless you are extremely strong and have a reason to pull 400+...

I doubt it. The unit is very heavy and runs smoothly. However, we are less than 200 lbs.

This is very good machine but is not for heavy duty, the user guide marks support maximum weight 250 pounds, I think this is the limit to get full benefits.

These machines are not built for hvy use. 250 # is probable the very max. I loaned mine to a friend who weighs over 200# and the trans axle broke. I suggest buying a sturdier machine.

Paul, I actually dont know what the weight limit is on this, but to give u an idea i weigh 210lbs and it has no problem supporting me.

I weight around 250 pounds and did not have a problem. It did not seem close to actual capacity. Richard

I never found any info on what the max load for the machine was, but we regular used well over 200 pounds without issue. Several people trained with me on this machine, so it got a lot of use and was very versatile.

My husband, who weighs more than 260 pounds, has no problem at all working out on this machine. It's a great buy.

I had 200 on it and it was no problem. The only thing to be careful of is if using the low pulley for a standing exercise like curls, the machine will tip backwards with too much weight.

I weigh about 195. It seems fine and I'd imagine it could handle more. If you're pushing 250, you might be pushing the limits. I'm not a doctor but that's my diagnosis.

That's a question either the Total Gym people, or maybe Amazon, can answer. Having owned a Total Gym 1500, I can attest that it's not a very large machine. I would err on the side of caution and suggest that 250 is probably the maximum. In fact, I might even go lower and keep the maximum person's weight at 200 lbs.
