Benefits
IT FITS IN A CORNER
Bravo is a great solution for Home Gyms. Hundreds of exercises in one machine, Bravo offers the strength training that current medical literature stresses is important for both weight loss and cardiac health. Designed with commercial durability and versatility, a Bravo and an Arc Trainer are the perfect home gym.
CHANGING THE GAME
Cybex Bravo combines the best of selectorized and cable-based strength training. The unique patent-pending design adds two key features to revolutionize training applications - the Progressive Stabilization system, which allows the user to incrementally modify the stabilization provided, and the Cable Width Adjustment, which results in innumerable height and width configurations, giving the most creative trainers unlimited exercise possibilities.
PROGRESSIVE STABILIZATION
The unique Progressive Stabilization system adjusts for height and horizontal position, offering maximum stabilization (like selectorized equipment) or free standing movement (like most functional trainers). The Bravo's Progressive Stabilization system can also be positioned for partial stability, introducing specific challenges for different functional tasks. Systematic destabilization allows trainers to create programming which builds strength and skills in a progressive, highly effective manner, offering new challenges as users' capabilities grow.
COMPLETE CONTROL
The advanced cable adjustment system lets not only the height of the cable to be adjusted, but also the width between cables. This means the direction of resistance can be completely controlled. The versatility creates almost endless training possibilities - and only Cybex has it.
A TOTAL SOLUTION
The Bravo is a total training solution, offering more training options and versatility than any product in its class. Whether upper body, lower body, isolated, or fully integrated, the only limitation to the Bravo is the user's imagination. Available in the standard 2:1 configurations for most applications.

Features
PROGRESSIVE STABILIZATION SYSTEM
The Bravo functional trainer and Bravo Press feature the patent pending Progressive Stabilization system, which is a pad that adjusts for height and horizontal position. The system offers maximum support-like selectorized equipment-or free standing, similar to most functional trainers. The Bravo Pull also offers the technology with height adjustment. Simply put, Progressive Stabilization gives users a greater variety of training options than other cable machines.
As far as results are concerned, Progressive Stabilization delivers what users want: faster, safer strength. Compared to other free-standing machines, the system offers:
- a 212% increase in load capacity,
- 184% increase in core activation,
- and a 38% greater strength gain*.
ADVANCED CABLE ADJUSTMENT
The Bravo functional trainer includes the Advanced Cable Adjustment system, which lets users control the height and width between the cables' origin. This means the direction of resistance can be completely controlled. Welcome to a new level of versatility and almost endless training possibilities.
FREE START TECHNOLOGY
The Bravo Lift features Free Start technology, which allows users to select the desired starting height and to get to it with minimal load, thus getting into the correct start position before the weight is engaged.

The integrated chinup bar's multiple grip options targets different movements and muscles.
DEDICATED ACCESSORIES
Grips, straps, and bars are available to produce an almost unlimited array of exercises and functional applications.
