two types of equipment is the option to work out either the
right or left sides of the body in isolation, step by step, with
the use of Selection Pro.
For instance, the Pure Strength chest press utilizes a
proportional allocation of load for both the right and left
body sides simultaneously. The chest press with Selection
Pro, however, primarily works on one side first and then the
other. The critical task in this workout is finding the accurate
positioning on both types of training equipment. Every
machine has a specific practical load axis clearly marked, and
you should work out along with the load axis of this device. All
this is especially advantageous for novices, those with little
experience working out and playing sports, and therefore
whose joints and abdominal muscles have not grown strong.
Pure Strength and Selection Pro training equipment is also
used by advanced sportsmen, bodybuilders, powerlifters
and cross-fitters. In such power sports the training device is
applied as ‘smashing’, the final workout cycle. Accomplishing
their individual and specific training set with free weights
and their own weight, an athlete then proceeds to the Pure
Strength machines to complete and finalize the workout.
While a person’s body experiences significant fatigue at this
point and maintaining balance is a challenge, the body’s
muscles have crucial potential for further work out. This is
the ideal way to finish working out your muscles, pushing
them to 100%, while reducing the probability of injury and
trauma. With the same principle, the Selection Pro machines
provide the same options for detailed muscle workouts.
Here is an example of how this works: an athlete reaches
his maximum while doing the bench press, feeling that the
barbell is out of balance and it is a challenge to maintain the

correct position on the bench, yet it’s clear there is potential
for more muscle work, strengthening the delta and triceps,
pushing through fatigue. At this point an athlete changes
to Pure Strength trainer and accomplishes the press within
fixed given range of motion. After this, an athlete can then
finalize working out, first on the right and then the left side
of the body selectively using the Selection Pro training
device.
The modern fitness industry develops a wide number of
training equipment models with various anatomic features
and specifications to pads and grips. As we already know,
any anatomic change in a body’s direction, even five to ten
degrees in angle, influences the workload of all muscles. The
system of Pure Strength and Selection Pro is the industry’s
essential training equipment these days. It allows an athlete
to work out the same muscles from different anatomic
positions. Apart from the development of training equipment,
modern manufacturers have institutes of biomechanics that
test how well racks and grips of training machines work,
using focus groups that include professional athletes and
Olympic champions.
Therefore, as a manufacturer and professional designer
committed to designing the highest-level training machines,
Technogym brand also tests our equipment in focus groups
before launching it in the market. Our advice to all fitness
lovers is to use our Pure Strength and Selection Pro series of
training machines for optimal workload distribution. They are
designed to especially assist beginners in attaining stronger
transverse abdominal muscles while strengthen working
joints, as well as enhance a professional athlete’s power and
body posture, using their most effective performances in
total safety and comfort.
