@@PeterKeller247 mostly because it would allow for a different kind of stimulus for the body compared to a barbell squat. Belt squats allow you to load the legs without putting as much pressure on the spine. It would allow for a better sort of isolation. Barbell squats are still critical though but I want to see more variety to leg exercises that can be done in a home gym.

Kick stand? Just link a heavy duty chain from top of the rack to your end of the lever arm+carribeaner and you can start in the top position. Unclip the carribeaner, then when you're done, reattach. You'll be in the standing squat position, the lever arm will be supported by the chain. Namaste x

I was lucky enough to grab one of these at the initial release. The build quality is amazing, and Fringe Sport identified an issue in a batch of their included belts (I noticed literally nothing wrong with the one I received...) and sent new belts out to everyone free of charge. In my opinion I think the instructions needed a little bit more work for what size sockets are required for assembly. I've used it a few times now and unfortunately I can't say that it's been great simply because of the lack of the kickstand. I've basically stopped using mine until that becomes an option. I've reached out and they said they are working on it as an add-on but I have not yet seen an ETA.

This one looks much better than the revolting model. I’d like to see something like this one, with a means of attaching to a horizontal cross member at the bottom rear of my cage. That way, I could use the cage for balance, etc. It would require a swivel joint for up and down movement. I would also like to see a version that I can use standard plates (1 inch center hole) with.

I ended up buying this. I have a 2" x 2" TDS squat rack that only has holes going from front to back. I don't have space to use this off to the side so I bought a 5/8 in drill bit and drilled a hole to mount it. Added a couple washers to make it fit tighter on the rack. I like it. Get it with the kickstand. It's well worth it.

I attached their new kickstand. It took me about 5 minutes to attach. It makes a huge difference; although, the negative is that you have to move the weight peg up one hole which slightly reduces the true weight you are lifting. Also, Coop is right about increasing the arm length to reduce the swing angle. Overall, I am happy with the Belt Squat.

the problem with this style of belt squat is that you have to load a ton of plates to get enough resistance cause the lever isn't very long, and the weight is far away from the body and doesn't move much. I built something similar with some 2x4s and a metal pipe that attaches to pin safeties for like $50. I think these can be greatly improved by having a Y shaped design with 2 weight horns like the belt squat machines. It would be bigger, but it would be much better loading
@PeterKeller247
11 ай бұрын
Very good feedback! One benefit of our design is that the lever *is* quite a bit longer than the other options on the market. We made the design adjustable and modular to accommodate this. And as for the side mount weight horns, those are coming in the next few months and again, since the design is modular, they will fit the existing units on the market as an upgrade if needed.

@@PeterKeller247 How are you calculating that? Based on this video it looks like the weight horn is about 2/3 of the way between the fulcrum and the attachment point, which would work out to around 67% load. Still much better than something like the Revolt, which is a terrible design, but 90% seems way off.

I would love to get a belt squat, but the back and forth movement worries me. IMO, the point to getting a belt squat is to be able to do heavy reps with less chance of injury than having bar up on top of your spine. More weight, less risk. But if you are pushing yourself (say, in the three rep range) it seems to me even a little back and forth movement would pose a serious risk of injury. I don't see that addressed in any videos on these things. You don't see someone doing 300 lbs. on it, for example.

@PeterKeller247

I'll give you the biased opinion (since I work for Fringe). The Rep option is a great piece of engineering, and I think generally priced OK assuming you have all the other gear that you need. The Rep option also has 2 big advantages going for it- 1:1 weight and a true vertical plane of motion. That said, A) You need the Rep rack and weight stack already to attach it to, B) I bet install and having it attached to your rack is cumbersome and C) it still suffers from the "kickstand" problem, with a solution to this problem much harder to address. With our design, we focused on interoperability (works with ALL racks or even just a wall), ease of install and tear-down (so you are not limiting your rack when not in use) and space efficiency, while delivering all this at a VERY approachable price.
