Escape raises its levels Escape’s new Deck 2.0 is designed to be used in three different modes: Step, Ramp and Bench. Within this, it offers 16 different configurations for step, bodyweight, plyometric, resistance and strength training exercises.
It features an anti-slip rubber top surface, adjustable backrest supported by strong steel tubing for extra strength and user confidence during weight training, and integrated storage for quick access to hand weights or resistance bands.
As a weight bench, it functions at 30°, 45° and 70° angles.
The entire length of the platform is used, with targets ensuring users have their hands and feet in the right place. Two height options – 205mm and 355mm – provide different difficulty levels for beginners and more advanced users.

Key features include a wide stepping platform, dedicated points for using resistance tubes, varied tread texture for increased grip or smooth torsion, a heat-welded top mat, anatomical target zones for hands and feet, secure locking system for the platform, rubber stabilising blocks to prevent slipping, and a secure stacking system for storage.
