Contact the local "HILTI" supplier in your area, their salesman will explain it fully to you; these are engineered fastening systems and I can guarantee you they are the best for this application. Most every equipment/tool rental outlet will carry Hilti products.

I would not use a butterfly anchor, they can work loose and cause problems down the road (spalling).

Coring is more expensive and overkill for that application.
Make sure you "borrow" or rent the epoxy applicator gun for economics; the system is expensive, but compared to coring not.

Good luck, those are expensive benches too.
+1 on the Hilti's. This is what is often used to fasten structural pieces to concrete. For your application a propely sized set will last longer than the bench.
