Body-Solid's Pro Dual line is what you specify when one machine has to do the work of two. Each Pro Dual station is a full-commercial unit that combines two related exercises into a single footprint, with two independent weight stacks (or one stack and one plate-loaded movement) so a member can move from press to row, or from leg press to calf raise, without standing up. The line is sized for boutique gyms, hotel fitness rooms, physical-therapy clinics, and serious garage gyms where floor space is the bottleneck and durability is non-negotiable.
There are seven stations in the Pro Dual catalog. Prices range from $3,000 to $4,275, and each one is engineered to a full-commercial standard with welded steel frames, deep DuraFirm upholstery, and weight stacks (or plate-loading) sized for years of daily use. This guide walks through what each station does, where it fits in a facility, and how to decide which combinations make sense for your space.
What "Pro Dual" actually means
The Pro Dual designation refers to a Body-Solid commercial machine that delivers two distinct exercises from one station. Some Pro Duals combine two selectorized movements (a lat pulldown and a mid row, for example) so two members can train at once on independent stacks. Others combine a primary plate-loaded movement with a secondary selectorized one (leg press plus calf raise). The shared concept is that you get the floor-space efficiency of one machine and the throughput of two, without compromising on commercial-grade construction.
Every Pro Dual station is built around a heavy-gauge steel mainframe, large-diameter steel guide rods, fiber-reinforced nylon weight-stack bushings, and aircraft-grade cables. The upholstery is Body-Solid's DuraFirm contoured padding, which holds shape under daily commercial use better than the foam-and-vinyl pads on most residential gear.
DPLS-SF Pro Dual Vertical Press & Lat Station ($4,275)
The DPLS-SF is the flagship of the Pro Dual line and the most expensive station at $4,275. It combines a vertical chest press, a shoulder press, and a full lat pulldown station into one frame with two independent weight stacks. The press side uses converging arms for natural shoulder mechanics. The lat side gives you a high-pulley pulldown station with no cable changes. If you can only buy one Pro Dual, this is the one most commercial accounts pick first because it covers the two highest-traffic strength movements (chest press and lat pulldown) in one machine.
DCLPSF Pro Dual Leg & Calf Press ($3,995)
The DCLPSF is a heavy plate-loaded leg press combined with a dedicated calf raise station. The leg press platform is built on a 2"x4" steel frame with a high-capacity sled, and the calf raise uses a stacked-shoulder pad so members can load it without a spotter. Most commercial accounts pair this with the DLECSF to cover the full lower-body cycle. For the full standalone Body-Solid leg press lineup, see our dedicated leg press buyer's guide.
DPRS-SF Pro Dual Multi-Press ($3,985)
The DPRS-SF is the press-focused alternative to the DPLS-SF. Instead of pairing chest press with lat pulldown, it combines a chest press with a shoulder press, both running through Body-Solid's isolateral converging arms. Two independent weight stacks let two members train at once. This is the right choice when chest and shoulder volume are the bottleneck (think strength studios, athletic-performance facilities) and you want the lat pulldown handled by a separate station like the DLATSF.
DLATSF Pro Dual Lat Pulldown & Mid Row ($3,695)
The DLATSF covers the two most-used back exercises (lat pulldown and seated mid row) in a single commercial station with no cable changes between movements. Nine thigh-pad positions accommodate users from very short to very tall, which is the kind of detail that matters when a machine is serving an entire member base. This is the back-day counterpart to the DPRS-SF press station.
DLECSF Pro Dual Leg Extension & Curl ($3,695)
The DLECSF combines a proper seated leg extension with a hamstring curl in a single dual-function machine. Two independent weight stacks. Adjustable thigh and ankle pads. Range-of-motion adjusters on both sides so a 5'2" member and a 6'4" member can both get clean mechanics. This is the isolation half of a complete lower-body setup that pairs with the DCLPSF leg press.
DPCCSF Pro Dual Adjustable Cable Column ($3,000)
The DPCCSF is the entry point to the Pro Dual line at $3,000. It is a dual-stack adjustable cable column that fits in a 3' x 4' footprint and gives you an essentially unlimited list of cable exercises: cable rows, pulldowns, presses, flyes, curls, triceps work, woodchops, and any unilateral cable movement you can dream up. Pair it with the right cable attachments and a single DPCCSF replaces three or four single-function selectorized stations.
DABBSF Pro Dual Ab Crunch & Back Extension ($3,225)
The DABBSF is the core-and-low-back station. One side is a proper seated crunch with an adjustable roller pad and gas-assisted resistance. The other side is a hyperextension for posterior-chain and low-back work. Both sides share a frame, but they are mechanically independent. For any commercial floor that takes member rehab and posture-correction work seriously, this is a meaningful piece of equipment.

How to build a Pro Dual floor
The Pro Dual stations are designed to combine into complete commercial floor plans. Here are the three setups that come up most often when we quote facility orders.
Three-station starter ($10,995): DPLS-SF (chest press + lat pulldown), DCLPSF (leg press + calf raise), DABBSF (ab + back extension). Covers chest, back, legs, and core in three machines and about 80 square feet of floor space. This is the right starting point for a hotel fitness room, a corporate wellness room, or a small physical-therapy clinic.
Five-station boutique ($17,640): Add the DLATSF (lat pulldown + mid row) and DLECSF (leg extension + curl) to the three-station starter. You now have proper back-day volume separation and full lower-body isolation work. This is the right setup for a small-group strength studio with 30 to 60 members.
Seven-station full floor ($25,920): All seven Pro Dual stations. Adding the DPRS-SF (chest + shoulder press) and the DPCCSF (dual cable column) gives you complete press volume separation and a free-cable station for unilateral and rehab work. This is what a 24-hour gym or athletic performance center would specify.
For commercial buyers comparing the Pro Dual line against full single-function commercial stations, the trade-off is exercise variety per square foot versus pure throughput per station. Two members can train on a Pro Dual at once, but the changeover between functions on a single member's workout is what saves the most time. The full Pro Clubline commercial collection includes single-function alternatives if your facility has the floor space.
Pro Dual vs Pro Clubline Series II
Body-Solid sells two full-commercial lines: Pro Dual and Pro Clubline Series II. The Series II line (S2 prefix: S2CCO, S2FTX, S2LEX, S2LPC, S2SLC, and so on) is single-function commercial gear, generally priced from $2,300 to $5,900 per station. Pro Dual prices look higher on a per-machine basis but lower on a per-exercise basis, since each Pro Dual station covers two movements. If you are pricing a full floor, Pro Dual usually comes out ahead on cost-per-exercise. If you need maximum throughput on a single high-traffic exercise, Series II is the right call.
Installation and warranty
All Pro Dual machines ship from Forest Park, Illinois on freight pallets, with assembly hardware and instructions included. Most stations weigh between 500 and 900 lb assembled and require two people for setup. Body-Solid's commercial structural warranty applies to the Pro Dual line, with cable and pulley coverage at the standard commercial duration. For Atlanta-area orders, we coordinate in-home or in-facility delivery and assembly directly through Everything Gyms.
Frequently asked questions
What is the cheapest Pro Dual station?
The DPCCSF Dual Adjustable Cable Column at $3,000 is the entry point. It is a dual-stack cable column with two independent stacks, capable of any cable exercise you can rig with the right attachment. Most facilities that buy a single Pro Dual to test the line buy this one first.
What is the most popular Pro Dual station?
The DPLS-SF Vertical Press & Lat Station at $4,275 is the highest-volume Pro Dual we quote. It covers chest press, shoulder press, and lat pulldown (three of the four most-used machines in any commercial strength room) on a single frame with two independent stacks.
Can two members train on a Pro Dual at the same time?
Yes, on the dual-selectorized stations. Each side has its own weight stack, cable run, and adjustment, so two members can use the machine simultaneously without affecting each other's load. The DCLPSF (plate-loaded leg press paired with a selectorized calf raise) is the one exception.
Are Pro Dual machines residential-warranty or commercial-warranty?
Pro Dual is full-commercial. Frames carry Body-Solid's commercial structural warranty, and cables and pulleys carry the standard commercial duration coverage. The line is rated for unlimited commercial daily use.
How much floor space does a Pro Dual machine need?
Footprints vary by station, but most Pro Dual machines need a roughly 8' x 8' clearance for safe member access on both sides. The DPCCSF cable column needs only a 3' x 4' base, but the user-clearance circle around it is larger.
Can I add Pro Dual machines to a home gym?
Yes, and a growing number of serious home builders do. The DPCCSF and DABBSF are the two stations that most often end up in a serious garage gym, since they cover unlimited cable variety and complete core/low-back work in a relatively compact footprint.
What pairs best with a Pro Dual machine in a small commercial gym?
A commercial power rack for free-weight barbell work, a full dumbbell ladder, and at least one commercial adjustable bench. Most boutique facilities run three to five Pro Dual stations alongside a rack-plus-bench-plus-dumbbells free-weight zone.
