Máquina de sentadillas pendulares PS01

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!

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!

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!
