The glute muscles are usually engaged throughout the exercise, especially during deep repetitions.

• Hamstrings

• Adductors

• Calves

• Hip stabilizers

Benefits of Using the Atlantis Pendulum Squat Pro Model PW212

Reduced Spinal Loading

The Atlantis PW212 ideal machine for targeting the lower body with reduced spinal loading. This allows you to perform heavy-body training. 

Excellent Quadriceps Development

Deep knee flexion is achieved due to the machine’s unique movement patterns, which produce greater quadriceps activation.

Safe Heavy Training

With the guided path, athletes can lift heavier loads safely without worrying about maintaining balance, making it ideal for both beginners and advanced lifters. 

Greater Range of Motion

PW212 Atlantis Strength machine allows you to achieve a deeper squat position while increasing muscle recruitment. 

Progressive Overload

Its plate-loaded design allows users to increase resistance over time, which makes this machine suitable for a long-term strength program. 

Foot Placement Options

A huge benefit of the Atlantis Strength PW212, it will let you emphasize one set of muscles over another with just slight foot positioning changes.

Low Foot Placement

Positioning your feet further down the platform would result in greater knee flexion, thus placing greater stress on your quadriceps muscles.

High Foot Placement

It places more of the strain on the hamstrings and the glutes so a good variant if posterior chain development is a primary goal.

Narrow Stance

Tight stances can offer more quad engagement and targeted stimulus for leg building.

Wide Stance

A wider stance recruits the adductors and glute muscles more effectively while improving hip mobility.
