Element - CARBON BLACK 9023 Bicep / Tricep 170lbs

Build stronger arms with the Element CARBON BLACK 9023 Bicep / Tricep Machine. This commercial-grade, dual-function strength machine combines bicep curls and tricep extensions into one selectorized station, allowing users to train both major muscle groups of the upper arm without requiring two separate machines.

Equipped with a 170 lb selectorized weight stack, the CARBON BLACK 9023 makes resistance adjustments fast and convenient for users of different strength and experience levels.

Its dual-purpose design makes the 9023 an excellent addition to commercial gyms, fitness centres, condominium gyms, hotels, schools, athletic facilities, corporate wellness centres and premium home gyms looking to maximize exercise variety while conserving valuable floor space.

Two Arm Exercises in One Machine

The Element CARBON BLACK 9023 provides two fundamental upper-body strength exercises from a single commercial machine:

Bicep Curl

The bicep curl trains the muscles on the front of the upper arm by flexing the elbow against resistance.

The movement primarily targets the biceps brachii, helping users progressively strengthen and develop the upper arms through a controlled selectorized exercise.

Tricep Extension

The tricep extension works the opposing muscles on the back of the upper arm by extending the elbow against resistance.

This exercise primarily targets the triceps brachii, an important muscle group for upper-body pushing strength and arm development.

By combining bicep curls and tricep extensions into one machine, the CARBON BLACK 9023 provides balanced upper-arm training from a single station.

Why Choose a Bicep / Tricep Machine?

The biceps and triceps are opposing muscle groups that control much of the flexion and extension of the elbow.

A dedicated bicep curl and tricep extension machine gives users a controlled way to progressively train both muscle groups using a selectorized weight stack.

The Element CARBON BLACK 9023 combines both exercises into one compact station, providing an efficient alternative to installing separate bicep curl and tricep extension machines.

This makes it particularly valuable for commercial fitness facilities that want to provide dedicated arm training while maximizing available floor space.

Balanced Upper-Arm Training

The biceps are located primarily on the front of the upper arm, while the triceps make up much of the back of the upper arm.

Training both muscle groups helps provide a more complete upper-arm workout.

With the CARBON BLACK 9023, users can perform:

• Bicep curls for the front of the upper arm

• Tricep extensions for the back of the upper arm

Resistance can be adjusted quickly using the selectorized 170 lb weight stack, making the machine convenient for facilities serving users with varying strength levels.

Ideal For

The Element CARBON BLACK 9023 is well suited for:

• Commercial gyms

• Fitness clubs

Complete Your Commercial Strength Circuit

The Element CARBON BLACK 9023 can be combined with other selectorized strength machines to create a complete commercial strength-training circuit, including:

• Chest Press

• Leg Extension / Leg Curl

• Leg Press

• Inner / Outer Thigh
