About the product
ATX® PENDULUM SQUAT
– Squat Machine
TOP-CLASS MEETS TRADITION
The Pendulum Squat is a specialized squat machine with a long tradition. Many experienced athletes consider this type of squat machine to be one of the most effective tools for developing the quadriceps.
The key to this machine is, above all, a precise angle between the footplate and the backrest, as well as an optimally designed lever arm to achieve first-class functionality with maximum efficiency. With the dual roller band peg system, the resistance curve can be perfectly fine-tuned.
ATX® has developed an extremely high-quality pendulum squat in collaboration with numerous athletes, based on fundamental reference values and the expertise of an experienced technical team – arguably unmatched in this price-performance segment.

CONCEPT
The pendulum squat is a specialized squat machine. The primary muscle targeted by this equipment is the quadriceps (front thigh muscles).
The main load is placed at the rear, while a 44 lb counterweight is mounted on the opposite side. This counterweight offsets the main load in the bottom position of the movement, thereby reducing resistance in the deepest part of the exercise. By attaching resistance bands to the integrated band peg system, the resistance curve can be further adjusted significantly. As a result, this machine makes it easier to come out of the “deep squat” position. Not only full-range squats but also partial squats can be performed very efficiently on this machine.
Thanks to the sophisticated angle between the footplate and the ergonomically shaped backrest, the machine provides excellent and secure hip support. Partial squats without full hip extension can therefore be performed safely. Anyone who wants to truly pump up and grow their quadriceps should consider adding this machine to their setup.
