hey, my Gym in Peterborough Definition Gym UK has this piece of kit but it is so un common that its almost impossible to find out how the angle works the legs differently
That 'one thin cylinder' is designed to handle 10 tonne so it's working at a fraction of it's capacity in this application. It also has a safety valve so if there was a hose failure (highly unlikely in this light weight application) the piston would very slowly drop to it's retracted position.
@@WatsonGym I think you have taken this out of context , cylinder being in the middle obviously hinged either end . No support either side what's stopping the frame from twisting?
@@gripmonkeydevelopments1608 The 2 pivot points at the bottom or the frame are 850mm apart giving a stable 3 point structure. The frame is incredibly rigid so there is no twisting.
Hi, there are 2 videos that will be able to help you get a better idea of how adjusting the angle changes the machine ua-cam.com/video/IGrRbUlEvY8/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/Y4xjKwJjQNM/v-deo.html
The amount of force required to move the carriage of the hack squat will vary depending on which angle you're using. At a steeper angle you'll require more force to move the unloaded carriage than at a lesser angle. Therefore, the weight of the carriage will change depending on the angle you're using the machine at.
@@WatsonGym OK, but can you provide a guide per angle please ? What is the weight at 45 degrees? 70 degrees? Or let us know the base weight and we can apply the formulas ourselves? Are you suggesting the pieces of metal that make up the frame cannot be weighed due to some ethereal force?
@@WatsonGym you’re correct that the amount of force required changes however the weight does not change. The weight is the same regardless of what angle it is at. Can you let everyone know what the starting resistance is
The Big Ben 'High Tech' Pakulsky and WatsonGym, a good partnership. Greetings from Recife, Brasil.

I’m planning to open my gym in China, your equipment seems interesting, do you ship to China ?
Hi Kareem, yes no problem, we ship worldwide. Email sales@watsongym.co.uk and we can quote.
can you manufacture this with the weight horns ontop of the machine rather on the sides to save space?
Where is the support? How does that one thin hydraulic cylinder support the frame?

wish I got this over the regular one that hurts my knees@@WatsonGym
Available in the US?
Yes, no problem to ship to the US. Drop us a message and we'll quote - sales@watsongym.co.uk
camera angles horrible..cant see how the hydraulic actually affects the hack squat

Why don't Watson state what the weight is minus any plates? Pretty poor from someone like Watson
