FUNCTION & TRAINING CONCEPT
The Pendulum Squat is specifically designed to target the quadriceps. A 20 kg counterweight behind the machine reduces resistance at the bottom of the movement, allowing for easier lift-off from deep squat positions. This unique setup also enables varied resistance profiles using bands for progressive or regressive loading curves.
Thanks to its thoughtful geometry between footplate and lumbar support, the machine offers excellent hip stabilization, especially beneficial for partial range squats. If your goal is serious quad hypertrophy, this is the machine to get it done.
