The PPF-HM97A is a compact plate-loaded belt squat. A chain belt connects the lifter’s hips to the lever arm, so the quadriceps, glutes and hamstrings take the load while the spine stays free of a barbell. The platform has a center cut-out that gives the belt room to travel through a deep squat.
Design & features
- Red lever arm with belt attachment and chain belt
- Diamond-plate platform with center cut-out
- Upright handle frame for balance
- Weight horn for Olympic plates
- Black frame with red accents
Ideal for
Commercial gyms, athletic performance centers, university weight rooms and training studios that want a dedicated plate-loaded station for this movement. It also suits well-equipped private gyms with room for a full-size plate-loaded machine.
