Vertical leg press machines
Vertical leg press machines: our professional selection
On a vertical leg press the user pushes the load upwards with the back flat on the floor or against a steeply inclined pad, which cuts the floor area needed to a fraction of that taken by a conventional 45 degree press. That single property is why it appears on compact gym floors, in studios and in performance rooms where a full inclined press could never be justified per square metre.

| PL2567 | Etenon | Vertical leg press, plate loaded |
The vertical position changes the exercise as well as the footprint. The line of resistance is aligned with gravity throughout, so loading is continuous and the hips work through a deep range, which trained users find demanding at loads well below what they would use on an inclined press. Set-up and dismount need a moment of coaching for new users, and that is worth planning for in a self-service area.
Ceiling height should be checked against the top of the loaded carriage, not against the machine at rest. Equipment follows the EN ISO 20957-1 class S requirements with a professional warranty of two to five years depending on the range.
