The Ferocity Multi: One Isokinetic Machine for Full-Body Power
Some machines specialise. The Ferocity Multi refuses to. Formerly catalogued as the “Multi-Chest,” this Velocity Isokinetics unit was renamed to capture what it actually delivers: aggressive, full-body power developed at speed — with or without a bench in place.
The tagline says it plainly: increase your pressing and upper-body strength. But the Ferocity Multi’s reach runs further than the chest. Across pressing, pulling, squatting and hinging patterns, it is built to be the power hub of a strength-and-conditioning floor. For facilities that need a genuinely multi-functional gym machine rather than a dozen single-use stations, this is where the conversation starts.
Why “Ferocity”? A Machine Built Around Power
The name points to the machine’s purpose. Where many resistance units are optimised for isolated strength, the Ferocity Multi is engineered around power — force produced quickly — a quality that is widely associated with sporting performance.
In physics terms, power is Force × Velocity. That relationship is the backbone of high-speed isokinetic training, and it’s why Velocity Isokinetics measures and stores output in watts rather than reps alone. Read more on the principle in Power = Force × Velocity: Why We Measure Watts.
By moving against hydraulic resistance at controlled speeds, the Ferocity Multi is designed to let athletes train fast and hard across compound patterns — the kind of work that develops the explosive pressing, driving and extending effort that competition demands.
Bench On or Bench Off: One Frame, Two Workout Modes
The defining feature of the Ferocity Multi is its removable bench. Pull it into place and you have a stable pressing station; take it away and the same frame becomes a free-standing power platform. That single design choice unlocks an unusually broad exercise list from one footprint — the essence of a multi-functional gym machine.
No-bench functions (standing / floor-based):
- Squat
- Single-leg squat
- Bent-over row
- Tricep push-down
- Deadlift
- Standing shoulder press
With-bench functions:
- Chest push/pull
- Chest press
- Shoulder press
The bench itself is no afterthought. It offers an adjustable angle from −30° to 90°, with a multi-bench position and footrest, so you can dial in decline, flat and incline pressing angles on the same unit. A counter-balance level arm keeps the loading smooth and consistent through the range.
Built for Speed: Variable Control From 10 to 500°/sec
Speed is where isokinetic training separates itself from conventional strength work, and the Ferocity Multi gives you a wide band to operate in. Its variable speed control runs from 10°/sec up to 500°/sec — slow enough for controlled, low-velocity loading at the bottom of the range, fast enough for explosive, high-velocity effort at the top.
That range matters because the resistance accommodates to you. Rather than a fixed weight stack, the hydraulic system regulates resistance to match the force you apply, keeping the movement controlled throughout the full range of motion. For a deeper comparison of how that differs from isotonic and pneumatic options, see Isokinetic vs Isotonic vs Pneumatic: Which Resistance Builds Power?.
Other core features include:
- Linear motion resistance
- Hydraulic resistance system
- Computer Managed Training System (CMTS) with a touch-screen display and smart system PC
- Heavy-duty frame
- Counter-balance level arm
- Adjustable angle bench (−30° to 90°) with multi-bench position and footrest
What You Can Train on the Ferocity Multi
Because the frame supports both linear pressing and standing lower-body work, the documented movement list reads like a full strength programme:
- Calf flexion/extension
- Quads flexion/extension
- Chest push/pull
- Back flexion/extension
- Glute flexion/extension
- Hamstring flexion/extension
- Shoulder — all movements, plus pull-over
- Triceps flexion/extension
The push/pull, reciprocating nature of many of these patterns makes the Ferocity Multi a natural fit for dual-concentric training — working opposing muscles in both directions of a movement. The methodology is designed to balance strength differentials between opposing muscle groups and develop speed. Learn more in Dual Concentric Training: Working Opposing Muscles at Speed.
Data That Backs the Power: CMTS Reports
Power development only counts if you can measure it. Every Ferocity Multi ships with the Computer Managed Training System, paired with a touch-screen display and smart system PC. After a session, the system can report across:
- Strength
- Torque
- Endurance
- Power
- Range of motion
- Comparison
The Comparison report is especially useful on a multi-pattern machine like this — tracking how pressing output, squat power and pulling strength progress side by side across a training block.
Footprint and Floor Fit
The Ferocity Multi occupies a 1.2 m × 2.0 m footprint — substantial enough to stay stable under heavy, fast loading, but compact enough for a single bay in a performance facility.
Who the Ferocity Multi Suits
With its power-first design and broad movement library, the Ferocity Multi leans toward athletes, coaches and strength-and-conditioning facilities — anyone who needs pressing, squatting and hinging capacity without dedicating floor space to a row of single-use machines. The same controlled-speed, accommodative resistance that makes it a power tool also makes it relevant on the return-to-performance end of the rehabilitation continuum. See how the technology bridges both worlds in From Rehab to Performance: One System, Every Stage of the Athlete Journey.
Bring Ferocity to Your Facility
The Ferocity Multi is built to be the power centre of your training floor — one frame, two modes, and a movement list that covers most of a strength programme. If you’re specifying equipment for a performance facility, a school sports programme or a high-performance gym, see the Ferocity Multi for full specifications, the movement list and the data reports — then contact Velocity Isokinetics to discuss configuration, pricing and lead times.
