5.1 Squat Exercises

The machine provides support and resistance for squats, helping to maintain proper form and reduce strain on joints.

• Adjust Settings: Adjust the height and length of the backrest and foot pedal to ensure proper alignment for your body. The correct height is when the roller sits just behind your knees.
