Seated Row Without Chest Support | AF-S8W46

The ARGO Fitness Seated Row Without Chest Support | AF-S8W46 is a commercial selectorized Seated Row Machine designed for effective back development through controlled horizontal pulling movements.

Unlike chest-supported row machines, the AF-S8W46 uses an open, unsupported upper-body training position, allowing the user to maintain their own torso position throughout the rowing movement. This creates a different training experience while still providing the convenience and controlled resistance of a selectorized weight-stack machine.

Equipped with a 100 kg (220 lb) weight stack, the AF-S8W46 provides substantial resistance for progressive strength training. Its compact commercial design makes it an excellent addition to gyms looking to expand their back-training options without requiring an excessively large footprint.

Seated Row Without Chest Support

The defining feature of the AF-S8W46 is its chest-support-free design.

Rather than resting the torso against a chest pad, the user maintains their own seated position while performing the row. This allows the upper body to move naturally with the exercise while requiring the user to control their torso throughout each repetition.

For commercial facilities, it also provides an excellent alternative to a chest-supported row, giving members more variety in how they train their back.

100 kg Selectorized Weight Stack

The AF-S8W46 is equipped with a 100 kg (220 lb) weight stack, providing a broad resistance range for different users and training levels.

The selectorized system allows resistance to be changed quickly between sets without loading or unloading Olympic weight plates. This makes the machine particularly convenient for busy commercial gyms and fitness clubs.

Benefits of Seated Row Training

Develop Back Strength and Thickness

The seated row is a fundamental horizontal pulling exercise for developing the back. It complements vertical pulling exercises such as lat pulldowns to create a more complete commercial back-training area.

Train Without a Chest Pad

Removing the chest support creates a different training experience from a conventional chest-supported row. The user is responsible for maintaining their own upper-body position throughout the movement.

100 kg of Available Resistance

With a 100 kg (220 lb) weight stack, the AF-S8W46 provides substantial resistance for progressive back training across a wide range of users.

Quick Weight Selection

The selectorized weight stack makes resistance changes fast and convenient, helping improve workout efficiency in high-traffic commercial facilities.

At approximately 1650 × 940 mm (65.0″ × 37.0″) of floor space, the AF-S8W46 provides a dedicated back-training station while maintaining a relatively compact footprint.
