The Turbuster FW981 is the seated calf in Turbuster’s FW Series, with separate weight-storage horns for tibia and calf raises, high-density seats with chrome-plated adjustments, padded knee support with easy adjustment, custom-moulded curved non-skid foot platforms, contoured knee pads and a locking lever that drops out automatically to start the calf raise.

Who is this machine for?

The FW981 suits commercial gyms, strength and athletic facilities, hotel and corporate fitness centres and premium home gyms in India that want calves trained seated with plate resistance, and the often-neglected shins trained on the same machine.

Muscles worked and key exercises

With the knees bent, the seated calf raise targets the soleus with the gastrocnemius assisting; the tibia raise trains the tibialis anterior at the front of the shin, which protects against shin splints and balances the lower leg.

Build quality and safety

The frame is welded oval steel with chrome-plated adjustments, the knee pads are contoured and adjustable, the platforms are custom moulded and non-skid, the locking lever auto-releases, and separate horns take plates for each exercise. The machine weighs 62 kg.

Like every FW Series piece, it is built from oval steel tubing with continuous welds, a chrome finish on sleeves and adjustments, rubber bases that protect the floor and the equipment, and seats of die-punched high-density foam over plywood in tear-resistant commercial vinyl, and it is supplied, installed and serviced across India by Luxe Fitness.

Frequently asked questions

Lifting the toes toward the shin against resistance, which trains the tibialis anterior; the FW981 has a separate horn for it so shins and calves are trained from one seat.

Why train the calves seated?
