Kit de 2 mancuernas automáticas de 24 kg, con 15 ajustes diferentes, desde 2,5 hasta 24 kg.

automatic barbell
estaciones


Explanation:
If we are taking about about a multistation gym here, they consist of two, three, four or even five stations, each one of which offers a specific exercise (shoulder press, fly, curls, leg flex/extension, etc.). The term is referring to a "barra automática" and I believe this fits in with my idea of the idividual stations.

automatic barbell locking comes together in this link and in may others. Something like cierre automatico de un aparato de musculación.

Asker: Thanks, I knew that...but I wasnt sure about an automatic barbel. I know believe its an "aparato de musculación con regulación del peso". In any case, the automatic I believe refers to controlling the weight I think. Thanks :)

Reference: Está bien lo de Anaskap:

Reference information:
El sistema de 2 mancuernas automáticas permite selecionar muy rapidamente el peso. Este tipo de mancuerna es preferible sobretodo cuando uno quierre entrenar varios musculos del brazo. Dado que no se trabaja con el mismo peso triceps o biceps, será siempre más rápido ajustar el peso en una mancuerna automática que con mancuernas con discos
