Share Strength training is on the rise, and members are looking for more efficient, results-driven workouts. At the core of a solid lower-body workout is the squat: a foundational, functional movement that’s unmatched when it comes to building strength, improving mobility, and boosting athletic performance. Squats can also be technically challenging and even unsafe if done the wrong way.
That’s why we developed the Smart Strength Squat, the latest addition to our Smart Strength machine lineup. This fully digital, guided squat machine unlocks the benefits of this essential exercise for every fitness level and is particularly attractive to younger members looking to prioritize weight training. For clubs, it’s a way to meet the demand for lower-body training, and differentiate your gym by offering industry-leading technology.
Why squats matter and what holds people back
Squats are often called the “king” of compound exercises for good reason. They activate major muscle groups across the legs, glutes, and core; improve functional strength; and support better mobility and athletic performance.
But weighted squats aren’t easy to master. Lack of guidance on proper form and weight choice can intimidate beginner-level members and even lead to injury. Experienced members also risk poor form when fatigue sets in, especially when they don’t have a spotter.
Enter the Smart Strength Squat
The Smart Strength Squat redefines what squats can be – for every fitness level. Whether members are looking to master the basics, build strength, or strive for peak performance, the Smart Strength Squat adapts to everyone.
For club operators, it’s a solution that appeals to all experience levels, enhances member satisfaction and safety, and boosts your gym’s reputation with cutting-edge technology.
