Dual Axis - Dual Axis Technology® is a unique strength training mechanism that provides variety and versatility for the most complete workout. Standard selectorized equipment trains muscles from a single direction that is prescribed only by the machine. Using our Dual Axis patented technology, CYBEX Eagle selectorized offers the option to train in either the machine-prescribed pattern of motion ... or to move in a different pattern ... on a different axis which can be defined by the user.
Independent Movement - By allowing the arms to move independently of each other, Eagle delivers the ability to balance the workout when one arm is weaker or injured which encourages symmetrical strength development. Independent motion also allows for bilateral reciprocal training.
Converging or User-Defined Path of Motion - The converging path of motion of Eagle chest press mimics the natural way the human arms move. It provides a more complete range of motion with constant torque at the shoulder. Adding CYBEX dual axis technology® gives an added dimension by augmenting the converging motion with the option for a user-defined second axis motion.
Start Adjustment - Unlike many other chest press machines, Eagle does not use a foot kick plate to help the arms get into the proper position to begin exercise. With Eagle, the seat back adjusts to a comfortable start position which ensures safety is not compromised in the event muscles weaken and exercise has to end before the feet can get back to the footplate. The unique CYBEX design assures that the preset range of motion is never exceeded. The seat adjustment feature also allows taller users a wider grip.
