FYI Not The DB method!
Machine arrived fast, it was easy to assemble despite the bad instructions. The translation to English is horrible. Most importantly this machine is NOTHING like the DB method. I wish I had paid more attention to the photos and setup before purchasing. First off the foot paddles are not in the same position, they are pretty high off the ground in comparison. So when doing the exercise I felt more burn in my quads and none at all in my glutes (butt). Also the resistance bands only work going upwards when you press the pedals down with your feet. The DB machine pedals don’t move, your feet are placed closer to the ground so that your body is in position for a “proper squat” I don’t know about anyone else but my goal was to work my booty and this machine didn’t cut it for me. If you want to work your but save yourself the hassle and spend the extra money on the real machine or stick to basic squats on your own.
