What is a Power Tower?

A power tower is a type of exercise equipment on which you can do body weight exercises such as pull-ups, dips, knee raises and push-ups.

These exercises help you to develop strength, power and muscle tone/size in the back, biceps, triceps, shoulder, chest and abdominal muscles.

You will also work a number of smaller stabilizing muscles, which means these exercises are far more natural and functional than those performed using fixed exercise machines in a gym.

What is so special about the Merax Boxing Power Tower?

This piece of kit does everything other power towers do (see above), but has the added advantage of having a tether ball for cardiovascular and reflex training

The tether ball can also be replaced by a boxing bag, using the hook provided.

This means you can get a great cardiovascular workout using this Power Tower, by combining weight training with boxing punches and kicks.

WARNING:  You WILL ache after using the Merax Boxing Power Tower!  But hey, ‘no pain, no gain’, right?

“Well made very sturdy, does not move what so ever. Excellent piece of kit”

“I can do pull ups on it in three different ways. It’s got a dip station. I love doing dips. I think lifting your own body weight and being able to control your own body weight is just the best thing for building strength and size”
