Walmart's Holiday Deals Event is officially live, and the retailer is offering steep discounts across its massive selection of products until Oct. 13. Some of the most impressive markdowns are on fitness equipment—everything from power racks to barbell sets is on sale right now—and one of the steepest discounts of all is on a simple folding weight bench that's over $200 off and very well padded.
The Pooboo Foldable Weight Bench is just $75 right now, a staggering 75% off the standard $300 price tag. This portable and adjustable weight bench has earned over 200 five-star ratings from shoppers who say it's a "great bench" because of its "solid and comfortable" design that allows them to get the most out of their home workouts.
A good weight bench doesn’t do anything particularly sexy; it simply adjusts to fit whatever workout you need to do and serves as a reliable surface on which to lift. This one from Pooboo has a steel frame with a capacity of 660 pounds. It can be adjusted to 36 different positions and has thick, comfortable, non-slip padding that ensures all post-workout soreness will be for the right reasons. It’s not a flashy product laden with bells and whistles because it’s a workhorse that would make a worthy addition to any home gym.
One reviewer said that this bench “provides a stable platform for my workouts, whether I'm doing bench presses, dumbbell rows, or various other exercises.” They called the padding “comfortable and durable,” and the foldability was a “standout feature” for them. It all adds up to a “steal” of a bench that “provides all the essential features you'd expect from a high-end bench but at a fraction of the price.”
The Pooboo Foldable Weight Bench is a solid entry into the category and, at just a quarter of its normal price, it's a no-brainer for anyone who wants to do weight-based workouts at home. A price cut this steep means stock is likely to go fast, so we’d recommend grabbing one for your home gym as soon as possible.
