The ONYX V-Squat is a premium plate-loaded lower-body strength machine engineered for complete leg development in commercial gyms and high-end personal training studios. Featuring a robust build and modern aesthetic, it delivers two squat modalities in one unit—forward-facing squats to emphasize the quadriceps and reverse-facing squats to activate the gluteus maximus for a full lower-body training solution.
Front shoulder pads conform to the natural contours of the chest and shoulders for stable, comfortable support and smooth resistance transfer, while rear pads align with the trapezius and scapula to reduce pressure and prevent discomfort. High-density padding in both positions minimizes shoulder strain, and dual-position handles provide ergonomic grip options to improve stability in either squat direction. An enlarged backrest supports the spine and pelvis to reduce lumbar compensation and enhance movement precision. A pneumatic-assisted safety catch system enables quick, low-effort re-racking under fatigue, with two height settings to accommodate a wide range of users. The oversized anti-slip footplate features seven adjustable tilt angles and supports multiple stance widths and foot positions—allowing natural ankle mobility, reducing knee shear forces, and maximizing activation of the quads, glutes, and adductors.
