{"product_id":"onyx-pendulum-squat","title":"ONYX Pendulum Squat","description":"\u003c!-- Product Description --\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe ONYX Pendulum Squat is a premium plate-loaded strength machine engineered for powerful lower-body development with smooth, joint-aligned squat mechanics. Built for commercial gyms and high-end personal training studios, its reinforced construction maintains exceptional structural stability under heavy loads for precise power delivery throughout the full squat range.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe movement arm follows a trajectory aligned with natural lower-body joint motion for controlled, comfortable squatting performance. A professionally angled backrest provides firm support while minimizing lower-back pressure, and high-resilience shoulder pads reduce discomfort under heavy weight-bearing loads. Dual handle positions allow users to switch grips based on preference for improved control. Safety is enhanced with a prominently placed safety hook and a 12-position adjustable safety stop to accommodate different heights, leg lengths, and range-of-motion needs. An innovative counterbalance system allows users to adjust the machine’s base resistance, making it suitable for both beginner and advanced training. A large 5-position adjustable anti-slip footplate supports multiple stance widths and dorsiflexion angles for improved stability and targeted muscle engagement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.accordion-section {\n  margin-bottom: 10px;\n  border: 1px solid #ddd;\n  border-radius: 6px;\n  overflow: hidden;\n}\n.accordion-label {\n  display: block;\n  background-color: #f7f7f7;\n  padding: 12px;\n  font-weight: bold;\n  cursor: pointer;\n}\n.accordion-content {\n  max-height: 0;\n  overflow: hidden;\n  background: #fff;\n  padding: 0 12px;\n  transition: max-height 0.4s ease, padding 0.4s ease;\n}\ninput.accordion-toggle {\n  display: none;\n}\ninput.accordion-toggle:checked ~ .accordion-content {\n  max-height: 4000px;\n  padding: 12px;\n}\n.accordion-content ul {\n  margin: 0;\n  padding-left: 20px;\n  list-style-type: disc;\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-section\"\u003e\n  \u003cinput class=\"accordion-toggle\" id=\"accordion-onyx-pendulum-squat-features\" type=\"checkbox\"\u003e\n  \u003clabel for=\"accordion-onyx-pendulum-squat-features\" class=\"accordion-label\"\u003eKey Features\u003c\/label\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"accordion-content\"\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlate-Loaded Pendulum Squat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Built for intense lower-body training with smooth, stable squatting mechanics and guided power output.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJoint-Aligned Squat Trajectory:\u003c\/strong\u003e Movement arm follows natural lower-body joint motion for more controlled reps and efficient force transfer.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMulti-Point Support System:\u003c\/strong\u003e Professionally angled backrest and high-resilience shoulder pads provide secure support while reducing lower-back pressure.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual Handle Options:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports both barbell-style and front-position grips for seamless switching and improved control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCounterbalance System:\u003c\/strong\u003e Adjustable base resistance allows users to scale starting load based on strength level and training goals.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAdjustable Safety Stop (12 Positions):\u003c\/strong\u003e Accommodates different heights and leg lengths for an optimal, safe range of motion.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e5-Position Anti-Slip Footplate:\u003c\/strong\u003e Large adjustable platform supports multiple stances and dorsiflexion angles for stability and targeting.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Visibility Safety Hook:\u003c\/strong\u003e Prominently positioned for fast, low-effort operation and enhanced training safety.\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv class=\"accordion-section\"\u003e\n  \u003cinput class=\"accordion-toggle\" id=\"accordion-onyx-pendulum-squat-training\" type=\"checkbox\"\u003e\n  \u003clabel for=\"accordion-onyx-pendulum-squat-training\" class=\"accordion-label\"\u003eTraining Options\u003c\/label\u003e\n  \u003cdiv class=\"accordion-content\"\u003e\n    \u003cul\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePendulum Squat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Primary squat movement targeting quads and glutes with stable guided mechanics.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eQuad-Dominant Training:\u003c\/strong\u003e Foot placement options allow increased quadriceps engagement and knee drive control.\u003c\/li\u003e\n      \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGlute \u0026amp;
