SEATED CALF MACHINE
Plate-loaded SEATED CALF MACHINE - seated calf raises with a padded lever. Targets the soleus, the muscle that gives the calf its size.
Features you'll feel in every workout
Plate-loaded seated calf machine. Seated, the soleus works, the deep muscle that makes up a large part of calf volume and that you cannot reach standing. The padded knee bar presses comfortably, the load is plates with a 50 mm bore.
What you train on it
Soleus (calves). High rep counts through a full range from stretch to contraction. Ideal combined with standing calf raises, which target the gastrocnemius.
Who it is for
- Commercial gym: calves are the most neglected zone, this machine closes it.
- Bodybuilding: calf volume that standing raises will not deliver.
- Home gym: small footprint, machine weight 70 kg.
Construction and safety
- Padded load bar, pressure on muscle, not bone.
- Adjustable seat for the correct knee angle.
- Plate-loaded system for 50 mm plates, delivered disassembled (assembly available as an add-on service).
Frequently asked questions
Why train calves seated?
With the knee bent the gastrocnemius switches off and the soleus works. Standing it is the other way round. A complete calf needs both.
Which plates fit it?
Olympic plates with a 50 mm bore.
Does it arrive assembled or disassembled?
As standard we deliver it disassembled with instructions. If you would rather not turn a spanner, order assembly as an add-on service: our technicians assemble it on site, or it arrives on a pallet already assembled and ready to train on.
What is the warranty?
24 months.
