Monster Utility Bench 2.0
Available in Multiple Custom Configurations

Manufactured in the USA using 3x3” 11-gauge steel, the newly redesigned Rogue Monster Utility Bench combines the stability of an extra wide 26.5” rear base with a new single-column front foot, giving athletes more room for setting their feet during a bench press. Each unit ships disassembled from our warehouse to reduce shipping costs, and comes with all necessary hardware for a quick set-up, as well as rubber feet to protect your flooring.

Version 2.0 also rolls out new improvements in portability and storage, as a set of rear wheels and a built-in handle in the front foot enable athletes to quickly and easily pick up the bench and roll it in/out of a rack or out of the way entirely. When not in use, the Monster Utility Bench 2.0 can also now be stored upright for better space efficiency, with a UHMW cap at the end of the bench spine ensuring no damage to the bench pad—no matter which type of pad you’re using.

As with the original model, gym owners can customize the Monster Utility Bench 2.0 during the ordering process by selecting a preferred bench height (Standard vs. Shorty) and style of bench pad (Standard Textured Foam Pad vs. Competition Fat Pad™ vs. Thompson Fat Pad™). The Shorty Bench option allows athletes to use a Fat Pad™ while still keeping the unit at a more traditional flat bench height. We’re also offering an alternative to the standard MG Black front handle, as customers can add a Knurled Stainless Steel handle to their order a la carte in a short or standard-length option. The knurling on the stainless handle is the same pattern found on our Rogue Ohio Bar.

Quality Rogue Construction

With its 3x3” 11-gauge steel frame, 47.375" x 26.25" footprint, and 3/16” laser-cut Rogue-branded gussets, the Monster Utility Bench 2.0 is unmatched for dependable stability. A set of rubber feet further assist in both preventing movement and protecting your floor, and the unit is finished in a quality MG Black powdercoat with Black Zinc hardware.

New Front Foot Design

Rather than having the wide horizontal steel tube base on both ends of the bench, Version 2.0 introduces a new standalone, column-style front foot that gives up nothing in stability while offering more ample room for athletes to set their feet during a bench press. Includes a bolt-on rubber foot to match those of the wide rear base.

2 Height Options

Customers can use the dropdown menu to choose between a standard height Monster Utility Bench (17” with a standard pad / 19.25” with a Fat Pad) or our “Shorty” model (15” with standard pad / 17.25” with Fat Pad).

4 American-Made Bench Pad Options

Further customization is possible by selecting your preferred style of bench pad:

Standard (47"L x 12"W x 2.25" Thick // 20 LBS) - Self-skinning, highly engineered polyurethane foam. Black w/ debossed Rogue branding. Includes a black substrate on the underside for a clean finished look that won’t deteriorate over time. 

Competition Fat Pad (50"L x 12.5"W x 4.5" Thick // 24.5 LBS) - Black “grabber” vinyl. Wider than standard but narrower than Thompson Pad.

Thompson Fat Pad (50"L x 14.5"W x 4.5" Thick // 30 LBS) - Black “grabber” vinyl. Oversized design promotes scapular movement, eliminates shoulder hangover, and optimizes back and upper body positioning.

Improved Portability

Version 2.0 of the Monster Utility Bench now includes a set of wheels in the rear base and a handle incorporated into the new front foot. This enables athletes to quickly and easily pick up the bench from the front and roll it wheelbarrow-style into or out of a rack, or out of the way entirely. Customers can opt for the standard MG Black handle or a Knurled Stainless Steel Handle, available a la carte in a short or standard-length.

Upright Storage

Near where the user’s head goes, we've added a UHMW cap to the end of the bench spine. This allows the Monster Utility Bench to be stored upright with no risk of damaging the pad. This new model is strategically designed so that no matter which pad the user selects at checkout, the UHMW cap will always extend just slightly beyond the pad to make safe contact with the floor when being stored vertically.

Very Trustworthy Comfortable Bench
I've had this bench for over a year now. I got the Shorty Thompson Fat Pad configuration and it has been an incredibly reliable bench. My shoulders stay stable and safe - no injuries thanks to the bench. After a year of consistent use, it has minimal indents where my upper body lies. It's maintained a level position and will clearly continue to do so. I've put a lot of weight on the bench so this is impressive. The padding is very comfortable to lie on and the pad cover is premium. This is a MUST buy for anyone that's serious about benching safely over many years. I forget if this was advertised as a bench that can be stored vertically - it can be but I don't recommend it unless there is no chance of dogs or kids bumping into it. It's somewhat easy to make it topple over from a vertical position.

Love this bench. Especially the Thompson Fat Pad.
This bench is unreal. The stability compared to my previous bench has made a significant impact. My first few sessions using the thompson fat pad 19.75in bench I’ve added like 10+lbs to my working sets. I think it’s also a great bench for bigger/taller people. It’s higher and wider compared to regular benches and commercial gym benches so it’s a lot more comfortable and supportive. Highly recommend for more advanced lifters.

🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 Bench
I already had the Manta Ray bench, but was looking for something to help with some reoccurring shoulder pain, so the obvious choice was the Thompson fat pad. I had tried the Rep wide pad before with the AB 5000 that I used to have, but found it was too hard combined with the extra width, and didn't like the extra width for incline and decline bench presses or accessory movements. So I knew I only wanted the extra width for flat bench, and a little extra give to go with the extra width. The Thompson fat pad was exactly what I was looking for and exceeded my expectations. I mean this pad is so comfortable without loosing any stability. It doesn't hinder my pressing at all because there is some give while providing extra stability for the shoulders. As for the bench itself it's light and easy to move around, and it works perfectly with the bench prop transforming into a fixed bench instead of a floating bench. Best flat bench I've ever used with the best pad that you could hope for. If you want to make it even better if you have a 6 post rack I highly recommend combining it with the bench prop not only does it make it easier for centering it, it also makes it feel more stable/locked in.

Stable, Grippy and Supportive: A Dream Bench"
I’m a decently large guy (6’2, 290lbs, and with broad shoulders), so I decided to buy the “Shorty” Monster Utility Bench 2.0 with the Thompson Fat Pad for my home gym. My hope was that having an incredibly stable, wider bench would be a good long term investment for shoulders and elbows. I’m in my 40s, and I’ve been working out for a long time, and my shoulders and elbows have frequently bothered me as a result of bench pressing. And holy cow, this bench did not disappoint! It is absolutely rock solid, and I literally laughed out loud when I first felt just how grippy the vinyl is. Adjusting to a wider bench was effortless, and I can already tell that it’s going to be so much better for my joints. Since this bench is for my home gym, I was a bit worried that the bench might be too wide for my sons to use. Thankfully, that hasn’t been a problem at all! My skinny 13-year-old can bench with full range of motion without any problems at all! I’m really happy with this purchase! Thank you, Rogue!

Sturdy bench for the package.
Very study bench. it’s the perfect height for bench press and even Bulgarian split squats. I figured the split squats would be more of the issue being 6’2.
