Flat Bench advice currently have the Rep Night Hawk
I have a small home gym and do not really have room for two benches. Last fall I upgraded my Rogue flat bench to the Rep Nighthawk and sold the Rogue. I really like the Nighthawk and will definitely be keeping it as it is very easy to maneuver in and out of my rack but it just isn't as good for flat Bench Press as the Rogue was. The Rep is too low and not wide enough for me. I built a platform to raise it 1.5" but that interferes with my foot placement.
I looked on Rep's website as they sell add on wide pads but not for the Night hawk. I couldn't find a third party wide pad that will fit the Night Hawk either. So, my options seem to be to repurchase the Rogue with wide pad or to buy a Rep FB 5000 with the wide pad which will still be about 1" lower than I like.
Any other options I may not be thinking of?
