Máquina de sentadillas pendulares PS01

As someone who has lifted for 40+ years, I can say without reservation that this pendulum squat is a great addition to my gym! The motion is smooth and targets the quads very efficiently. Love using it!

Was easy to set up. Very sturdy piece. We love it so far. Worth the money!

To say I was humbled would be an understatement.
This machine is designed in such a way that it requires way less weight to absolutely thrash your legs.
We don't need to pound on 300 lb to get a work out in... In my legs were on fire after about 10 reps, and I only had 90 lb on the pins...
Highly recommend.
It's a little large of a footprint, but if you have the square footage available, this is worth the money

I have had this in my gym for about a month now. The machine was easy to assemble and it seems to be well built. There is no wobble or cheap feel to it. The motion is very smooth and the range of motion on this machine is insane. Go full ATG on this and get a great stretch on your quads. You can also move your feet higher on the platform to add more involvement from your glutes if desired. No back pain, no knee pain during the movement. My wife also used it and could not walk the next day (in a good way). Thumbs up so far for the GMWD Pendulum!

Amazing

I love my pendulum squat. I sold a V-Squat machine that always bothered my knee. There was just something about the motion that didn't agree with me and gave me a lot of pressure/pain under my kneecaps. I placed my order for the GMWD Pendulum squat on a Friday night and it arrived the following Wednesday. It came in 3 large boxes and was very well packaged. Every part was individually wrapped in plastic and some had cardboard on them. There was plenty of Styrofoam and corrugated inside to keep parts from sliding around. Nothing was damaged.

Assembly was very simple with some of the best instructions I've ever seen. Literally anybody should easily be able to assemble this machine. I do recommend using a ratched and wrench. You'll need a 16mm, 19mm, and 21mm socket. It does come with very thin/short wrenches but if you use those, plan on it taking at least an extra hour to assemble. I build the whole thing in about 2.5 hours.

The Pendulum Squat is very stable. I'm 6'3" and fit in it fine. I did need to drill an additional hole for the safety stop pole. Even all the way out, it wouldn't save me if I failed a lift. I'd be sitting on the floor before it caught the arm.

The actual Pendulum squat maneuver is amazing. I'm tall with long legs so when I free weight squat, I can never get my legs below parallel. On the Pendulum, I can get my rear all the way down and touch my ankles with ease. In 30 years of lifting, I've never achieved such depth before. It's incredibly comfortable too. Zero back or knee strain and at the very bottom, my ankles are basically in neutral position with no flex or extension. The machine is very humbling. I normally do 3x15 barbell squat with 280 but can only do 20lbs on this machine.

What an amazing machine! I highly recommend it!

Clean, small footprint, all black. Great for the price,nothing else competes unless you're spending 3x more. Bearings have grease ports. Assembly is doable solo with an impact driver but the pendulum and springs might need some help. The hardware was on labeled cardboard which is a relief at this price point and made assembly very straightforward. Footplate and foot angle takes some trial and error, but range of motion is smooth (I'm just over 6' with no issues). Labeled hardware and full-size manual were a nice touch. Started with no additional weight to figure out angles. I have no complaints given the price and size and would buy it again.

First thing is that it was very straightforward directions and took about an 1 hour 15min to get it working with 2 people. Second Wow works smooth and very easy on the back & shoulder area and even on my old knees.Last thing I really felt my legs with lighter weight and can easily justify the space (small studio) which is not that much compared to other pendulums. I must also mention how responsive & helpful customer service was!!! Excellent company. 2nd machine i have purchased from them

I've had the pendulum for almost a month now and we love it, you don't have to load it with 4+ plates to get to failure around 8-10 reps. 10/10.

This machine is amazing. It's sturdy and definitely worth the price. It is shipped in 3 different boxes but the shipping was great - and so was contact with the seller to track my shipment. There were no missing parts either. Lovely addition to my home gym.

Fast shipping, packaged very well, movement is perfect while still being lighter and space saving for home use. Arrives in 3 different boxes which are less than 100# each which made it very easy to move into my basement as opposed to commercial pendulums or the original one I was planning on purchasing from Fettle fitmess.very great machine and the movement feels identical to commercial pendulums. The commercial gym I frequent has one which made me love it and does the exact same plus more features such as the footpad having multiple heights. 10/10 machine and a 7.5/10 assembly. IG is @thatliftingitguy if you want to ask direct questions or see it in action loaded with weight. I typically use a few 45s on pendulums.

It would be nice if the back rest had more support for the lower back like a curved pad and also the the safety stop had the tubing be able to extend higher

Provides good range of motion but would be better if it had handles at the top like regular squat machines have. Would also like to have a higher rest catch as I am 6’1 and have to bend down to rest it on the top catch. Quality materials and a good quad workout.

Love it, I have some knee problems which makes it hard to do traditional squats, tried out the Pendulum and didn’t feel it in the knees, super pumped that it worked out

Machine is very sturdy, smooth and well built. I am 6ft7, so it's a little small getting into and out of, but offers a full ROM.

Good machine but the back support should be longer.

do 1 set of leg extension (when you do 20 reps, increase the weight on each exercise) , then without rest do 1 set of pendulum squats , then without rest 1 set of leg curls . Your legs will get a good pump and you wont even need to do another cycle if you work to failure on each exercise.

I have trouble doing deep squats with my Smith machine, and I read all about the more natural movement allowed by pendulum squat machines. Well, I'm now a believer too. I love how deep I can go with this squat machine, all while protecting my back. Great purchase!

Excellent product

The Pendulum Squat exceeded my expectations, especially for the price. Was shipped in three boxes, very well packaged and arrived in perfect shape. Instructions were very clear and hardware was laid out and blister packed on marked cards, which greatly simplified assembly. This unit is SMOOTH. It hinges on pillow block bearings that are equipped with grease fittings. An unexpected touch at this price point. Once I experimented with the foot plate adjustment, I found the range of motion very natural. This machine will cook your quads and is very humbling. You will need to add relatively little weight to get an effective workout. I'm older but, as a reference, I deep squat 270 lbs with the barbell for working sets of 6 to 8 reps. In comparison, I find that 90 lbs on the Pendulum Squat makes for a difficult set of 9 to 11 reps.

Solid machine for a reasonable price. Instructions for assembly were a little unclear, particularly for attaching the springs, but otherwise easy to put together.

GMWD Pendulum Squat is an amazing machine. Arrived within 5 days of ordering. Boxes shipped separately was the only issue. Packaging was top notch. Assembly instructions were pretty easy to follow, just be sure you align the brackets properly and do not tighten the bolts fully until you have the majority of the structure built. You will need to be able to shift brackets around to get things aligned properly. Took about 3 hours to assemble using two people and moving slowly as to not make mistakes.
This machine will humble you! Best leg workout your quads and hamstrings will ever get! Highly recommend it!

Great Machine

I injured my back decades ago in college while performing barbell squats. Ever since, I would still do the exercise, but could go no lower than thighs parallel to the floor, for fear of re-injury.
After assembling the machine, I tentatively tried it without loading any weight plates. I was surprised how stable it felt, which even encouraged me to increase my range of motion. I was shocked to find that I could once again truly do a full squat! I have other machines in my home gym(Leg press, hack squat, leg extension/curl, etc., but after one "legs-only" exercise session using the pendulum squat exclusively, it felt that I had worked my legs to the max! Thank you, GMWD, for manufacturing such an excellent machine, and extend my thanks to the engineers that designed it!
