Total Gym Encompass PowerTower
The Total Gym Encompass PowerTower is a commercially designed rehabilitation and high-performance training system built for physical therapy clinics, sports conditioning facilities, and athletic training centers. Engineered specifically for the Recovery Series, it features motorized incremental load changes that allow fitness professionals and physical therapists to adjust resistance levels at the push of a button – without the user ever having to dismount. Dual remote control handles give the exerciser direct touch-control over incline adjustments mid-session, ensuring continuous, uninterrupted training flow.
With a resistance range of 1% to 72% of bodyweight across 26 calibrated incline levels with infinite adjustment between them, the Encompass PowerTower accommodates every patient and athlete from early-stage post-surgical recovery to elite sports-specific conditioning. The 7-position adjustable glideboard supports optimal spinal alignment across over 200 exercises and variations spanning resistance training, Pilates, plyometrics, and functional movement – all on one compact, foldable unit.

FAQ
The Encompass PowerTower is specifically engineered for rehabilitation and sports-specific recovery. Its motorized level lift assist allows therapists to change resistance levels while the patient keeps exercising – no dismounting needed. Combined with dual remote control handles, 26 calibrated incline levels (1%-72% bodyweight), and the built-in Slide Distance Regulator, it offers a level of clinical precision and versatility that standard Total Gym units simply cannot match.
Yes. When unfolded, the unit measures 106″ L x 38″ W x 65″ H. When not in use, the hydraulic lift assist makes folding easy and the unit stores upright at just 20″ x 38″ x 65″ – rolling in hand-truck fashion so it can be repositioned around your space with minimal effort.
Absolutely. The adjustable glideboard promotes optimal spinal alignment across its 7 positions, and the built-in Slide Distance Regulator allows you to precisely limit the rolling range of the glideboard – which is especially useful for patients with post-surgical range-of-motion restrictions. The incline can be fine-tuned to any patient’s current ability level, making it suitable for nearly all patients with physical rehabilitation needs.
No special modifications are needed for US facilities. The Encompass PowerTower plugs into a standard US wall outlet (115-230 VAC, 50-60 Hz). Facilities outside the US simply need to use the appropriate wall socket adapter for their country – no special wiring or dedicated circuits required.
The Encompass PowerTower ships freight on a pallet. The shipping weight is 306 lbs. and the shipping dimensions are 70″ x 30″ x 19″ including the pallet. Some setup is required upon arrival. Contact us at [email protected] for delivery ETA and any specific logistics questions.
The Encompass PowerTower supports over 200 exercises and variations, including closed-chain joint loading, multi-plane resistance training, Pilates-based movements, explosive plyometric training for upper and lower extremities, core stabilization, and sports-specific conditioning. The dynamic pulley system allows both unilateral and bilateral arm-cable work, and the LAT bars support line-of-pull specificity for a full range of upper-body movements.
Total Gym offers a Physical Therapy In-Service video solution designed to enhance the effectiveness of the Encompass PowerTower in clinical settings. Additional training DVDs and digital resources are also available. The unit also comes with an Owner’s Guide, Resistance Chart, and Product Sheet – all available for download on this page.
