					<description><![CDATA[Why This Kind of Bench? This guide focuses only on flat benches with a tripod foot design shown above, with two points of floor support in the back and one in front.

					<description><![CDATA[Intro Update Oct 2022: Since writing, the FB-4000 bench has been discontinued. The FB-5000 is the current model being sold and is generally better in all respects.

					<description><![CDATA[These flat utility benches are meant for use either with dumbbells or with a separate rack/cage. The advantage of such a bench over a weight bench with an attached rack is the ability to move the bench out to do dumbbell work or to get the bench out of the way to do squats and other exercises with the rack.]]></description>
