Plate Loaded Machines

About

Plate Loaded Machines for Commercial and Home Gyms Plate loaded machines use standard Olympic weight plates for resistance, combining the feel of free-weight training with a guided, supported movement path. Unlike pin-loaded machines , the same plates can be shared across every machine and your barbells, and load can be added in small, visible steps. The BLK BOX range covers leg press, squat, posterior chain and upper body machines for home gyms, PT studios, sports clubs and commercial facilities. Plate Loaded Leg Machines Plate Loaded Leg Press Machines The Plate Loaded Leg Press has four chrome weight sleeves, four plate storage pegs, 47kg of resistance before any plates are added and a 450kg maximum load.

Our leg press buying guide compares bilateral and unilateral setups. Hack Squat, Pendulum Squat and V Squat Machines The Plate Loaded Hack Squat has an adjustable footplate mounted on a pivot for different stances, while the Plate Loaded Pendulum Squat uses an arcing working arm, a pull-pin adjustable footplate and an adjustable safety stop for a deep, supported squat pattern. The Plate Loaded V Squat and the Standing Calf Raise and Leverage Squat add further lower-body options. Belt Squat Machine The Belt Squat Machine is manufactured at our Belfast HQ from 80mm x 80mm laser-cut steel and comes complete with a Spud Inc belt squat belt.

Posterior Chain, Glute and Calf Machines The Reverse Hyper, Back Extension and Sissy Squat target the hamstrings, lower back and quads.
