Description/Concept

The Pendulum Squat is a special squat machine. The main muscle group worked with this machine is the quadriceps (front thigh muscles).

The main load is applied to the back – a 20 kg counterweight is attached opposite, which counteracts the main weight in the lower exercise position, thus reducing the load in that position. By attaching resistance bands to the integrated band peg attachment, the load profile can be significantly varied. Therefore, this device makes it easier to exit a deep squat. But not only deep squats, but also partial squats can be performed very efficiently on this device.

Thanks to the ingenious angle of the footplate to the ergonomically shaped backrest, the device provides excellent and secure hip support. Partial squats without full hip extension can therefore be performed safely. Anyone who wants to properly pump up and grow their quadriceps should definitely get this machine.
