Technology

Yukon Fitness offers several home gym systems. The Caribou III strength training system incorporates a Smith machine which guides the barbell along the vertical frame. This feature provides complete safety as the bar glides along the vertical retainers, providing the feel of free weights without the need for a spotter. The Caribou III also has an optional selectorized 200-pound weight stack and a lat attachment that includes an adjustable bench for flat, incline and decline exercises. Several other components and accessories can be added to the Caribou III strength training system, including a preacher curl attachment, a chin-up bar, triceps pressdown bar and rope and multiple swivel curl bars.

In addition, Yukon Fitness offers strength training home gyms that utilize unencumbered olympic straight bars to mimic a true "free weight" motion. Offering both the unencumbered and Smith machine approaches allows each individual to choose the style of home gym that best meets their strength training goals and preference.
