At Outlift Athletics, equipment isn’t an afterthought. it’s the foundation of who we are. Most gyms buy what’s cheap, what fits the corporate budget, or whatever looks shiny on a showroom floor. We build our facility the opposite way: we choose machines based on performance, biomechanics, and what serious lifters actually need. That’s why Outlift has become Long Island’s most respected training environment for strength athletes, bodybuilders, and anyone who’s sick of cookie-cutter commercial gyms.
Here’s a look at some of the most talked-about, most used, and most loved machines inside Outlift Athletics.
**EliteFTS Monster Hack Squat
A Leg Day Legend**
If there’s one machine in the building that lifters line up for, it’s the EliteFTS Monster Hack Squat. This thing is a powerhouse. Built like a tank, smooth as silk, and perfect for lifters who want brutal leg development without compromising knee alignment or spinal integrity. It’s heavy, controlled, and engineered for progressive overload. exactly how leg day should feel.
People don’t “try” this machine. They commit to it.
**Watson Pendulum Squat
The King of Quad Isolation**
Watson doesn’t make casual equipment, they make weapons. Our Watson Pendulum Squat is one of the most sought-after machines in the entire gym. The pendulum arc perfectly hits the quads from angles you simply can’t replicate with traditional squats. Add to that the smoothness, the stability, and the absurd build quality Watson is known for, and it’s no surprise this machine is a member favorite.

It’s as close as you can get to guaranteed quad growth.
**Competition Combo Benches from the Best in the World
Built for Serious Lifters Only**
When it comes to powerlifting, we don’t believe in “good enough.” We carry competition-grade combo benches from Eleiko, Texas Strength Systems, ER Equipment, Ghost, and State of the Arc. These are brands trusted on pro platforms worldwide and they’re the same ones you lift on inside Outlift.
Why so many? Because different lifters prefer different setups, pads, rails, heights, and surfaces. We’re not here to force everyone into one rack. We’re here to provide the tools to help every lifter become their strongest.
**Eleiko Powerlifting Platforms
Where Serious Lifting Happens**
Eleiko platforms are the gold standard in powerlifting. Durable, stable, smooth, and designed to handle whatever you throw at them. from heavy pulls to explosive Olympic lifts. Our massive Eleiko platform areas allows lifters to train without fighting for space or cutting corners. Whether you’re deadlifting 200 pounds or 700, these platforms take it like it’s nothing.
This is where personal records are made. pr city baby!
**Legend Fitness LeverEDGE Plate-Loaded Line
Precision Engineering for Perfect Reps**
Our plate-loaded arsenal includes the Legend LeverEDGE series, machines built with biomechanics that feel so natural you forget you’re on a machine at all. From vertical presses to rows, chest presses, and lower-body variations, LeverEDGE equipment is known for its smooth lever arms, consistent resistance curves, and rock-solid construction.
Simply put: if you want plate-loaded work done right, Legend delivers.

And That’s Only the Beginning
Outlift Athletics has invested hundreds of thousands of dollars in equipment alone, and it shows. Beyond the machines above, we have imported equipment from all around the world:
Specialty bars for every lifting style
Strongman implements
A full plate-loaded lineup
Rare machines imported from around the world
Dumbbells, racks, and units you won’t find anywhere else
Dedicated spaces for bodybuilding, powerlifting, Olympic lifting, and performance training
Every year, we continue to reinvest, upgrade, and expand. At 20,400 square feet, Outlift Athletics is one of the most complete strength training facilities in the region. and we’re still growing.
Why Our Equipment Matters
Because equipment is more than metal. It’s a lifter’s environment. It’s the difference between “just working out” and actually progressing. Every machine in Outlift is chosen for a purpose, to help our members get stronger, train smarter, and lift in a space built with intention.
If you’re tired of gyms that give you the bare minimum, or machines that feel like they’re held together with optimism and plastic, Outlift Athletics is where you upgrade.
