Rogers Pendulum Vertical Chest Press

Rogers Pendulum machines are marketed mostly towards collegiate and professional strength and conditioning facilities. It makes sense, this chest press feels more like a strength builder than other chest machines. The weight is heavy throughout the entire range of motion, making it the machine most like barbell bench pressing in our facility. Therefore, it should have good carryover to the bench press. The fact that it’s unilateral too makes it a good accessory movement to balance out the imbalances that we develop from benching.
