Hammer Strength machines are great but this is my least favorite. Not sure if I am just too much of a pussy but I don't feel like I get shit from this.
Your thoughts on this machine?
They have some good machines, but many of the are ergonomically so fucking weird, that you must have body structure of the gibbon to use them efficiently. This is great example of those. This machine is hopeless piece of shit and where it is, no one uses it because it is so bad. You simply cant get good range of motion with it, no stretch at all. Another good example is their seated calf rise:
If you look at the padded support which you put on your thighs while you are pressing weight with your calves, how you can use it in that angle? In that position it looks good, but when you use it, it tilt forward so it turns edge of the pad towards your thighs. Only way to use it is put it against your kneecaps, and then you have that angle as it should be, but how you can lift serious amount of weight with your kneecaps? Similar machine from another brand is made differently, you have wide well padded support resting on your thighs and there is no problem what so ever. I don't say it is easy to make ergonomically correct gym machines, because it isn't, but how about to fix existing flaws in your products? That would be nice, while these machines cost lot of money.
