Muscle D Front Squat Machine - MDP-1035

Muscle D Front Squat Machine  - MDP-1035

There is no denying that adding squats to your weight training workouts will increase your lower body strength. While the most common squat exercise is the back squat, a more ergonomically sound position may be the front squat. 

The Muscle D Front Squat promotes a more naturalized spinal position as the body remains in an upright forward standing, neutral stance. This helps relieve pressure from the lower back and shoulder pain that traditional back squats can trigger. 

Features

• Angled pads allow great front squat thrusts
• Multiple hand grip positions to hold during use
• Large footplate for isolating different leg and glute muscles
• The prestart locking mechanism allows the user to start at the top of the exercise
• Deep range of motion for max leg and glute development
