Plate Loaded Belt Squat
Originally built for elite athletic performance, the Hammer Strength Belt Squat has become a staple in commercial training facilities for its ability to load heavy, move explosively, and reduce spinal stress. With a natural, user-defined path of motion, it replicates barbell squats without compression, allowing athletes to drive maximum force through the legs while maintaining an upright posture.
Our Belt Squat machine delivers on all fronts from max-effort strength to explosive power to joint-friendly lower-body training. Built to our unmatched durability standards and packed with features to increase resistance and variety, it’s a must-have for serious lower-body development.
Dimensions (L x W x H): 78 x 63 x 64 in (198 x 160 x 132 cm)
Product Weight: 425 lb (193 kg) (Dip Attachment adds 60 lbs (27 kg)
More Weight, Less Strain
Unlike machines that enforce a fixed movement, our Belt Squat follows a natural, user-defined path, mimicking the barbell squat while keeping the load off the back. Athletes can push maximum loads without experiencing the compression or restraints of a barbell squat. Our intentional design makes it the preferred choice for heavy leg training, offering uncompromised performance.
Perform Weighted Dips
With the optional dip attachment, our Belt Squat transforms into a fully integrated dip station that bolts directly onto the machine, providing high-impact dip training without taking up extra floor space. No need for a separate dip bar or rack attachment—just pure, weighted dip training in a compact, efficient setup.
