I needed this video. I’ve seen this machine at my gym and had no idea what it was, but it’s exactly what I need. I have a very hard time doing traditional squats due to lower back issues. I’m excited to use this machine next leg day!
Hey Dalton! Really happy you found the information helpful! I have back issues as well, but with this machine, I'm still able to train legs effectively, with zero back pain. Check out some of the other videos I did for more helpful tips
Same as well. Even lower weight. Nags at my back. Takes the fun out of exercise. Going to switch to this
I’m right there with you with the back problems. This is a great substitute
Try hitting the roman chair for back extensions and hamstring work before and in between squat sets. Really helps.

I so so so needed this video. This piece is at my gym and I see plenty of men working on it but just like you said it looks very intimidating for me. But you have gave the confidence to tackle it! Thanks so much!!❤❤
Best pit shark demo on here 🔥
My gym has this and the pendulum squat machine what a game changer when it comes to my leg development.
Just used this tonight and pumped I did it right can't wait till next leg day
Thank you for this video you explained this very well😊
THIS IS THE HOLY GRAIL OF SQUAT
thanks for the video
Where you connect the belt actually impact which muscle fibers fire off most. Something I learned from a client when trying to show them our facility.
I'm a low bar (hip/posterior chain dominant) squatter, and I'm experimenting with using belt squats to target my quads more, and overcoming that urge to lean too far forward on the ascent of the squat (screws up my bar path and makes the lift unnecessarily hard on my back). My quads burn like heck when doing belt squats, even with a light weight.
Perfetto
I love this over traditional back squats. No pressure on my lower back, and it works just as well. My pilates works my core, and if needed, I can do hip thrusts to work the glutes. I feel my whole legs working with pit shark squats. We would not be doing back squats. Our backs are not designed to support weight like that.
Thank you for this because I’ve used this with my coach and I want to use it without her hooking me up… lol I’ve went to the gym solo one day and just looked at the machine and walked away 😂 like “ what if I hook it up wrong and end up hurting my self 🤦🏽♀️”
weight horns are so much closer to the pivot point giving you a large mechanical advantage. Force on the belt is about 1/2 of the weight plates.

Where do I buy a dip belt that's strong enough to perform these heavy belt squats? My dip belt is only rated for 80kgs
Damn, I gotta find one of these machines somewhere around my area in SoCal. I have weird proportions to where when I try to back squat, I can't lean back like everyone else I see. I'm pretty much leaned almost all the way forward, chest damn near facing the ground. I've had trainers tell me to keep my back straight and chest up, so I'll tell them to stand behind me when I try, so when I tip backwards right away, I can fling the weight back at them. It just doesn't work at all for my body type, so this machine seems perfect to still be able to get the effect.

I had that problem too. It took over a year to be able to lean back and get my form right. Having this machine is nicer that back squats though.
I wish someone would explain how ro adjust the chain. How do I go from short to longer?
is there any way to prevent the belt from chafing against your thighs?
I just started using the belt and pendulum squat machines. Our gym has 2 floors. I'm glad they have an elevator
Where i get that belt?
Can you get full depth? Hamstrings covering calves for maximum quad stretch? With this device, not your personally that is
Yes, I was doing ATG on this yesterday. You just have to hook the belt around your waist so that the chain which attaches to the machine is shorter.
How does the weight translate on the pitshark. For example... if someone squats X amount on back squat they could probably squat Y amount on the pit shark
I have a bad Lower back and I’m doing this now. It works great for me I’m just curious how strong my legs are. I’ve only measured them w back squat
It's waaaaaayyyy easier. For reference max back squat is about 500 on the pit shark can easily do 675 for reps
@@jakewolfe7588 you can do 675 for reps? That’s insane. Any tips for building leg strength like that without doing back squats? I have a bad back. Right now I do 4 sets of 30 reps of front squats with a kettle bell. 30lbs right now, my goal is 100lbs.
Sorry I misread but 500 is still insane lol.
If you’re using this machine it’s not about loading stupid amounts of weight, it’s about range of motion and squeeze and really controlling the weight all the way through the motion. You’re going to get such a great pump and great development from this machine without damaging your spine. Such a great machine.
Where can I find that belt?
It’s usually available with the machines. Hopefully nobody steals them
Always found the belts to rub and be uncomfortable.
Why does the belt hurt my groin it puts pressure on it ????
Try a chainless belt
🍑
Bro, it doesn't pinch or wack you? Private area.
Not at all man
No lol
Do you need a carabeaner?
I don’t like it. The belt cuts into my hips
Try a chainless belt
Shouldn’t
talks too much
Turn to Jesus people he died for your sins, Repent of what the New Testament describes as sin. Believe the gospel obey the teachings of Jesus documented in Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Jesus is the only way to be saved, be baptized if you have faith in Jesus then you will live life with him as your example. If you need prayer i'll pray for you. If you want to keep contact with a brother in Christ i’ll keep contact with you. The love of God is beyond our understanding. God bless.,..
Reps for Jesus 💥💥💥 stop spamming random videos. It has nothing to do with the video..
@@raunefare it has everything to do with the video. Jesus gave instruction to spread the gospel. One of the ways to do that is to spread the gospel wherever you go. So if I'm on a video that I'm looking at or I come across. I'm going to spread the gospel. But Jesus loves you he died for your sins. Turn to him if you haven't already. Grow in the faith of the Lord.

@@weknowhisvoice9296 I slept with a guy named Jesus once. He was inside me.
@@weknowhisvoice9296 I dare u to go spread the gospel in a real gym
Cut to the chase buddy. We all know how this works. Too expensive to support people who don’t know. The same can be experienced with a squat rack and bar bell. Tell the truth.
@sampatane793 You are lying or just stupid.
This is really weird. When i use this machine 200kg for 14 reps a piece of cake. I think the only downside to this machine is that, PLEASE GET A REALLY STRONG BELT.
