Shipping calculator
Delivery options
Your item’s shipping method and price are confirmed in the shipping calculator and at checkout. Here is what each delivery path means.
Items weighing 149 lb or less ship by ground parcel rather than freight.
Your equipment is palletized and protected. The freight carrier schedules delivery, then uses a liftgate to lower it to your curb or driveway. Moving it inside and unpacking it are up to you.
When selected and available for your address, the delivery team brings the equipment into the room, assembles and tests it, then removes the packaging.
For commercial builds and multi-pallet orders, a dedicated trailer keeps the full order together in one delivery. We confirm the unloading plan before the truck ships.
Change your mind within 30 days of delivery and you can return the machine or exchange it for a different size, color or configuration.
Return shipping is the customer's responsibility and a 15% restocking fee applies to preference returns and exchanges. Freight items must go back packaged to the same standard they arrived in. We will tell you exactly what that means before anything is collected.
Anything that arrives damaged or fails under warranty is handled separately and carries no restocking fee. Full terms are in our Returns, Exchange & Refund Policy.
Coverage and accessories have to go on the same booking as the machine. Add them here and they travel together.

CTX/ Build-a-Gym absolutely CRUSHED IT! I had been struggling with numerous manufacturers trying to get a seated leg press/extension that’d ship to Alaska. When I found CTX, they went above and beyond to get my Fractal packaged and shipped with no hassle. I HIGHLY recommend these folks to anyone looking for solid commercial quality equipment for their home.
Thank you guys!!!

I was thinking about getting Ozempic, but I’m not in the mood to go blind yet. So I decided I’d do it the old fashioned way and called CTX.

CTX stands by their products. I recently purchased a Precor elliptical from them & it arrived with a mechanical flaw. They coordinated with a technician to get my product fixed like new. They accomplished this despite the fact that my home was two states away. Special thank you to Nichole for staying accessible and attentive throughout the process!

Absolutely best in business! Not only is Dillon just genuinely a great human being, he’s real and honest. Loved everything I’ve gotten from him and the team. I’m about 10-15 pieces in deep with him and not stopping anytime soon! Absolutely recommend hitting these guys up for home/commercial equipment. New or refurbished!

Dillion was great to work with!! Super friendly, quick turn around time, and great at communicating! The guys who delivered it Robb and JJ were also amazing. They came prepared and were very fast and efficient. They offered to help us move around other equipment to ensure we loved our gym! Super nice people and an amazing company! I would highly recommend working with them. Oh and the equipment itself is high quality and looks great in our home gym!

Every machine we sell as remanufactured goes through the same process, whatever the brand or the price. Not a wipe-down and a price tag.
Assessed frame to console, then taken apart and checked part by part. Nothing gets judged from the outside.
Every moving and touched component, from belts and cables to bearings, bushings and grips, is evaluated and rebuilt or replaced, then the machine gets a full cosmetic restoration.
Electronics bench-tested, frames and welds checked, panels refinished, then reassembled to the manufacturer's specification.
A full operational cycle under load before it ships. Anything that fails the final check goes back through service, not onto a truck.

Quick answer: The Hammer Strength Select Back Extension is a remanufactured commercial selectorized lower back machine. An ergonomically shaped lumbar pad is aligned to the axis of rotation so the lower back extends through the correct arc, a five-position start fits different torso lengths, and two non-slip foot platforms fit different leg lengths. It has a 295 lb stack, a 300 lb max user weight, measures 46 in. by 40 in. by 55 in., and weighs 560 lb.
The Hammer Strength Select Back Extension strengthens the posterior chain with a five-position adjustable start, ergonomically shaped lumbar pad aligned to the axis of rotation, two non-slip foot platforms, and a 295 lb selectorized stack - the lumbar pad's alignment to the rotation axis is the critical fit specification: it positions the user so the lower back extends through the correct arc rather than pivoting from the wrong point, which is what causes lumbar stress on improperly set back extension machines. The five-position start accommodates different torso lengths and range-of-motion preferences, and the two foot platform positions further expand the fit range across users of different leg lengths.
Smooth selectorized resistance covers rehabilitation through advanced lower back loading. 295 lb stack on a 560 lb commercial frame, 46" × 40" footprint, 300 lb max user. Remanufactured.

Mainly the erector spinae, glutes, and hamstrings, with the multifidus, adductors, and core stabilizers assisting.
The pad sits in line with the machine rotation axis, so the lower back extends through the correct arc instead of pivoting from the wrong point. The five start positions and two foot platforms let each user dial in that fit.
Remanufactured units carry 1-year parts and labor coverage that starts on the delivery date. Register within 30 days of delivery, and see product guarantees for details.
