Body-Solid G9S vs G6B Home Gym: Complete Comparison

G9S vs G6B: Design & Resistance System

Both the G6B and G9S use Body-Solid’s smooth Selectorized Weight Stack System, engineered for consistent, friction-free motion.

• G6B: Single 210 lb stack

• G9S: Dual 210 lb stacks (420 lbs total)

The G9S supports two users simultaneously, ideal for shared home gyms or couples who train together. The G6B, meanwhile, offers the same build quality but with a smaller footprint, perfect for single users or tighter spaces.

Verdict: If you want maximum resistance and the ability for two users to train at once, go with the G9S. For compact efficiency, choose the G6B.
