A new member walks up, sets the rails low, and holds a real plank for the first time. Ten minutes later a trained athlete raises the rails and struggles on the same machine. The Total Gym ELEVATE Core ADJ is that machine: an inclined plank station with 7 levels and a 400 lb user rating.
It is the ELEVATE core machine in the Total Gym commercial fitness equipment line, built for clinics, studios and commercial gyms. It needs 12 square feet of floor plus clear space on each side.

RecovAthlete is an authorized Total Gym dealer. Orders carry the factory warranty and direct Total Gym support.
The ELEVATE Core ADJ is a fixed station that must be anchored into your floor, and the bolts are not in the box. If you cannot drill, or must clear the room after class, choose another station.
Authorized Total Gym dealer, so the commercial warranty is valid. We check your floor and bolt-down plan before the order ships. Adding more ELEVATE stations? One quote and consolidated freight.
Personal and business financing for buyers in the United States and Canada. Personal buyers choose a plan at checkout. Businesses can finance the Core ADJ as equipment. Ask us for current rates and terms.
Resistance on the ELEVATE Core ADJ comes from the rail angle. Higher rails load more of your body weight. To add resistance, raise the rails to the level you want. To reduce it:
There is no weight stack to load, so members change the level themselves between sets.
Floor type, room size and delivery checks are on the Before You Order tab. The short version: a drillable floor, a space about 72 by 80 inches, and two people for assembly.
The ELEVATE Core ADJ turns the plank into a station with 7 steps. Beginners and athletes share one machine, and it stays bolted where members expect it. Not sure your floor takes anchor bolts? Send us a photo of the floor and the space, and we will check it before you order.

Transit damage is not a warranty claim. It goes through the carrier claim process. The Total Gym warranty covers manufacturing defects found after delivery.
Outside the US, warranty terms may vary. Contact your local authorized Total Gym distributor.

Total Gym sells it as the ELEVATE Core ADJ, part number 6000-B1. Buyers also search for it as the ELEVATE core machine or ELEVATE ab machine. ADJ stands for adjustable. The 7 selectable incline levels are Total Gym's upgrade on the earlier ELEVATE Core design.
Yes. Lower rail settings reduce the share of body weight a user holds, so a new member starts low and moves up. Total Gym also lets you progress or regress a move by changing body position. It does not publish the exact percentage at each level, so start with the placard moves and build up.
Total Gym's owner's guide says the ELEVATE Core ADJ is designed and intended for commercial use, and the published US warranty is a commercial warranty. It also has to be anchored into the floor. A home gym works only if you can do that, so send us your floor type before you order.
Yes. Total Gym makes floor anchoring a condition of use, through the bolt holes in the anchor feet. Bolts are not included, because the right bolt depends on your floor. The floor requirements and what to check are on the Before You Order tab.
Wipe the pads after each use and check that the glideboard rolls smoothly. Once a week, wipe the rails with a non-corrosive cleaner that has no alkaline or alcohol, and check every screw and pad. Once a month, inspect the rollers and clear any debris. Never use lubricant or silicone spray on the rails or wheels, because it makes the wheels slide instead of roll. Clean the glideboard with a non oil-based window cleaner.
Because we are an authorized Total Gym dealer, the US commercial warranty is valid on your unit. Repairs done outside Total Gym's own service network can void that cover. Keep your invoice and the serial number, since Total Gym issues a return authorization before any part comes back. Contact us first and we will route the claim with you.

Buying for yourself, spread the cost through Affirm at checkout. Buying for a gym, clinic, spa, or studio, apply with one of four business lenders and put the whole room on a single application.
RecovAthlete has no control over any financing decision. Approval is based on your creditworthiness and is solely the lender's decision.
Affirm at checkout. Rates run 0% to 36% APR based on your credit profile. Soft check to prequalify, so no impact on your score. No prepayment penalty.
Brickhouse Capital, Reliant Capital, Acorn Finance, or KWIPPED. Apply with two of the four and compare. Financed equipment can qualify for a Section 179 deduction. Confirm with your accountant.
Every page below has real prices, real monthly payment examples, and the lender comparison for that category. Pick the one you are buying.
Most business buyers are not buying one machine. They are building a room. Sauna, cold plunge, red light, vibration, hyperbaric, cryotherapy, and halotherapy all finance on the same paper through the same four lenders, and RecovAthlete quotes every category on one purchase order.
That means one freight schedule, one install window, and one financing application instead of six. It also gets you a better rate, because a bigger number on one application beats six small ones with six hard inquiries.
See commercial recovery equipment financing, or call 866-861-6317 and we will price the room.
| Lender | Type | Amount | Speed | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Affirm | Consumer, at checkout | Order total | Seconds | Personal purchases. 0% to 36% APR based on credit. Soft check to prequalify. |
| Brickhouse Capital | Direct equipment lender | Up to $250K on a one-page application, $1M+ with financials | ~24 hours | A full room or a full floor. Credit decisions made in-house. Tied to the business, not your personal credit report. |
| Reliant Capital | Lender and broker | Up to $500K application-only, $5M with financials | 2 to 4 hours | Medical, aesthetic, and wellness. Deferred payment options. New or used equipment. |
| Acorn Finance | Lending marketplace | $1,000 to $100,000 | 60 seconds to prequalify | Comparing offers. One application goes to 30 or more lenders with no impact to your score. |
| KWIPPED (APPROVE) | Lender marketplace | Minimum $1,500 equipment value | 60-second application | Larger commercial orders. Lenders compete, which usually returns the best APR. Businesses only. |
Apply with two of the four and compare. It costs nothing and the spread between offers is often significant.

Pay in 4 splits the purchase into four interest-free payments charged every two weeks. Monthly installments spread the cost over a longer term, with rates from 0% to 36% APR depending on your credit profile. You see the exact terms before you agree to anything. No origination fees, no prepayment penalty, no late fees.
Prequalification does not. Affirm and Acorn Finance both run a soft check to show you offers, which has no impact on your score. Proceeding with a monthly installment plan or a business loan may involve a hard inquiry. That is why it pays to prequalify with more than one lender first and only proceed with the best offer.
Yes, and for most business buyers it is the better route. Brickhouse funds up to $250,000 on a one-page application with no financial statements. Reliant approves in 2 to 4 hours. Business financing is usually tied to the business rather than your personal credit report, and financed equipment can qualify for a Section 179 deduction. Confirm the tax position with your accountant.
No. This is the most common and most expensive mistake. Separate applications mean separate hard inquiries, separate payments, and a worse rate on each, because every individual ticket is small. Get one quote from RecovAthlete covering everything you are buying, including freight, and put that single number on one application.
Financed equipment can qualify. Section 179 lets US businesses deduct the cost of qualifying equipment in the year it is placed in service, and financing the purchase does not by itself disqualify it. The equipment must be in service, not merely ordered, within the tax year. Annual limits and eligibility rules are set by the IRS and change year to year, so consult your accountant.
Freight, yes. On Affirm it is part of the order total at checkout. On business financing, put freight on the RecovAthlete quote and the whole quote amount goes on the application. Installation and room construction are harder, because some equipment lenders will not fund non-equipment costs. Ask the lender before you sign.
Yes. Affirm charges no prepayment penalties. Acorn Finance and most business lenders also allow early payoff without penalty.
Tell us what you are buying and whether it is personal or for a business. We will point you at the right two lenders and quote freight and install as one number, which is also the number that goes on the application.
