Gym Gear Perform Series Leg Press Calf Raise

Product Overview

The Gym Gear Perform Series Leg Press Calf Raise is a dual-function powerhouse engineered to deliver comprehensive lower-body training through controlled, joint-friendly movements. Combining a squat-like leg press motion with dedicated calf raise functionality, this machine targets the quadriceps, hamstrings, glutes, and calves while significantly reducing strain on the spine and knees compared to free-weight squats. Featuring a multi-position back pad, adjustable seat, and customizable start position, it accommodates users of all sizes and ensures proper biomechanical alignment. Built to commercial-grade standards with EN957 certification and equipped with a massive 134 kg weight stack—the largest in the Perform Series—this machine provides the serious resistance needed for advanced leg development in a safe, spine-friendly platform.
