To satisfy the demand for new ways to get a assembly and better toned body, fitness equipment becomes developing and versatile than ever. The HIP sequence was designed with regard to versatility. This hardworking machine has been designed to work the strongest muscles in your body - those from your feet.

The typical hip sled is designed using heavy measuring steel and has a weight capacity of up to £ 1800 (816.47 kilograms). The roller system with closed bearings allows a weighted pad or "sled" to slip up and down along the front of the frame. The type of exercise determines whether you are sitting or standing on your hip.

Most hip sans can accommodate several different exercises. Two primary exercises that can be carried out on sled hips are squats and presses. Squats are performed in the stos and positions while pressing the legs is donein the seating position.

"Hack Squat" is done by standing in a half -back half -back against the upper pad. Then bend the hips and knees until you reach the squat position, and then re -rise by stretching your knees.
