This machine features our unique adjustable angle mechanism, allowing you to quickly and easily change the angle of the carriage between 30 and 60 degrees.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe angle of the Leg Press and Hack squat can be adjusted in 5-degree increments, enabling a vast range of exercises and unique strength profiles to cater for different needs.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e30-40 Degrees:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eBy adjusting the angle closer to 30 degrees it reduces the felt weight of the carriage, meaning there is less resistance. The lower angle also reduces compression (by providing a more natural hip-knee-ankle movement pattern, preventing hyperflexion and excessive stress on the knee joint and lower back) this is ideal for beginners, for use in warm-up sets or even rehabilitation work.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e45 Degrees:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eHaving the Leg Press \/ Hack Squat at 45 degrees is more the 'standard' angle you will find on most machines. This angle offers a good mix of quad, glute and hamstring activation while offering a more natural movement pattern (similar to a squat, but with more stability). This angle also offers a good balance between joint safety and muscle activation. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e50-60 Degrees:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eCloser to 60 degrees you will notice more resistance when loading the same weight as lower angles, as gravity acts more directly with it being more vertical. You will be able to generate a greater range of motion in the hips and knees if mobility allows, this will offer greater glute and hamstring recruitment. Angles closer to 60 degrees also provide better efficiency when it comes to progressive overloading, while reducing the amount of weight required in your gym (this can be beneficial for home gyms, where a limited amount of weight is accessible). \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe Leg press \u0026amp; Hack squat is also suitable for reverse hack squats, this is perfect when in the 60 degree angle setting - the machine has elongated shoulder pads and ergonomically positioned handles to open up this exercise variation. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTo change between Leg Press and Hack Squat, the back pad is either inserted in the carriage or bottom footplate of the machine. When the pad is inserted in the bottom footplate, it can be used for Leg Press, and when inserted in the carriage it can be used as a hack squat.

When in the Leg Press position, the foot plate can also be angled to suit the users needs and the angle of the carriage itself (30 - 60 degrees). The angles can be adjusted with spring loaded pins for simplicity and ease of use. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExercises Include:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eLeg Press\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHack Squat\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eReverse Hack Squat\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eCalf Raise\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Details:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e1-Year\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca title=\"Warranty\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rivalstrength.co.uk\/pages\/warranty\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eWarranty\u003c\/a\u003e!\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSuitable for individuals between 5ft 3\" and 6ft 3\"\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e3 x Safety limiter height choices\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBreathable PU seat cushion\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e4 x Adjustable band pegs\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e30 - 60 carriage angle (5 degree increments)\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eSuitable for home and light commercial use\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eGas springs used to assist with adjusting the angle of the machine, u\u003cspan\u003esers can seamlessly transition between different exercises without compromising safety or convenience.\u003cstrong\u003e*\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e*Notice\u003c\/strong\u003e - The machine should always be unloaded from weight before adjusting the angle of the Leg press \u0026amp; Hack squat.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003ch2\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h2\u003e \u003cp\u003eSuitable for Olympic (2\" \/ 50mm) Weight plates\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTotal Length (45, 50, 55, 60 degree angle) - 2610mm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTotal Length when at 40 degrees - 2650mm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTotal Length when at 35 degrees - 2730mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTotal Length when at 30 degrees - 2910mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTotal Width (at widest point) - 1590mm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTotal Width (at the base) - 850mm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eTotal Height at 45 degree angle - 1760mm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTotal Height at 60 degree angle - 1840mm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eLeg Press Foot Plate Width - 550mm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eWeight Plate Loading Pin Length - 2 x 290mm\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMaximum Load Capacity - 300KG\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"QIANDE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54992106422611,"sku":"EOF-EL2","price":747.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/progradewarehouse.com\/products\/rival-adjustable-leg-press-hack-squat","provider":"PRO GRADE WAREHOUSE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
