I really like this machine. It looks gay to use but it really gets the glutes going after about 5 solid sets. Anyone else like this thing? Both the players loaded and selectorized varieties are pretty decent.

>tfw abs too weak and ego too strong to build my glutes with this machine
I should be using this more often, but knowing a random thot can load more weight than me puts me off.

>>76283738
Yeah it sucks to see girls get on and load it up but they are all obsessed with this thing. I go really early and theres hardly anyone there to see me humping the sky.

>>76283708 (OP)
Its pretty good. The higher elevation on the legs really let's you get a good glute squeeze

>>76283708 (OP)
I remove the sling thing and attach my belt squat to the hooks, it works

>>76283708 (OP)
I have this one at my gym. The pump feels ok, but there's something about the proportions of the restraint and my legs that makes it feel awkward. I should use it more anyways. Meh

>>76283708 (OP)
Love it.
It's basically a deadlift but it's all on your glutes if you squeeze right.
I remember the first weeka of trying it, couldn't sit without great discomfort, it was that precise.

>>76284732
That seat is way too high, if you go even deeper it's a huge difference. Like a legpress equivalent sort of depth in the rom.

>>76284732
That's just it. The seat isn't adjustable, but the restraint and foot pad are. I look the same way when I use it. The restraint is maybe 1 notch away from feeling solid. I can't get it any lower.

DO NOT USE THIS MACHINE. ITS BEEN 3 DAYS AND MY ASS STILL HURTS FROM DOMS

DO NOT USE THIS MACHINE!

>>76286099
I wish it still gave me doms after 3 days.

>>76286222
No you dont. Im in so much pain. It hurts to shit. Can't even squeeze out a turd without feeling the burn

>>76286348
Then it could be:

1. it's your first time on it or working out in general, novel stimulus, or

2. You overtrained, doing junk volume

Or both.

>>76286579
I maxed out 3 sets at 330lbs 5 reps with a 5 second squeeze at the top so yeah, kinda over did it. But damn it inma get juicy fucking glutes even if it kills me

>>76286598
5 seconds, what's the point? 1 second is good enough, then start eccentric phase.

>>76286604
Time under tension. Builds size

>>76286615
You're better off hitting higher reps, but if it works for you.

>>76286673
Maybe so but it seems to be working. That 5 second squeeze really gets the glutes activated, like I said I've been in pain with DOMS for 3 days. If it was overtraining then I need to get stronger, but I know the muscles are getting affected and thats more than I ever felt while squatting
