The Hammer Strength V-Squat combines freedom of movement with machine-guided stability to deliver powerful, athletic strength training. Its V-shaped motion path aligns with natural hip mechanics—minimizing knee and spinal strain while maximizing lower-body engagement in a pattern that mirrors free-weight squats. Ideal for users wanting hip-dominant power, this machine supports heavy loading, promotes better form, and bridges the gap between guided machines and traditional squats.
