REP FB-5000 - 60 Second Overview of the Best Flat Bench

The quick and dirty on what makes the FB-5000 the best flat bench, ever.
REP is known for having the best benches around, and the FB-5000 is no exception. Dense and firm padding, but comfortable. Grippy vinyl, and a 3 post design allows proper leg drive without slipping. Crafted at a proper height, making it within International Powerlifting standards.
Quoting one of our customer's reviews: "Just buy it - the price is almost ludicrous for what you're getting. 4" fat pad, 12" wide. Comfortable, built to last, easy assembly, easy to move around thanks to it's wheels, and very aesthetically pleasing. I'm a Rep Fitness customer for life. This is the result of true R&D... when a company know what it's doing, the product tells the story. The FB-5000 tells a Shakespearean narrative."

If I train with a fatpad bench will I notice a strength difference when going back to a normal pad?

[@koolmommyof2]

Can this stand up vertically against wall when not using? Is there a video or image anywhere showing what that would look like?

[@johnandstephanie377]

I store mine that way, inside the rack, against the wall. No issue

[@kirkvandixon]

Quick question, If I buy the the Thompson fat pad will it fit exactly on the FB-5000 bench frame without drilling extra holes in the fat pad?

[@REPfitness]

If swapping our pad for the Thompson pad (must be 4-bolt mount pattern), total bench height will increase 1/2 inch, and you will need to purchase (4) 3/8"(dia)x1"(length) bolts.

[@REPfitness]

Also, we will have our own much more cost effective wide pad in stock in about 3 weeks!

I am 5'5" and about 165lbs. Do you think I would benefit more from the 12" wide pad or the 14" wide pad? I didn't know if the 14" pad might be too wide for me.

[@REPfitness]

Hey! One of our reps here is 5'6" and 170 and finds that both pads work for her very well. Having a wider base is sometimes preferred for stability purposes.

[@DERDM]

@@REPfitness ok great. Thanks for the information.

[@tadleyironwood7595]

After buying mine with the wide pad i cant seem to find the standard 12 inch to purchase.any suggestions?
