Glute Ham Develope

Glute Ham Developer KP0701 (GHD-A) – Extended Front Fork Design for Maximum Stability

The Glute Ham Developer KP0701 (GHD-A) is a commercial-grade GHD machine designed for glute and hamstring development, back extensions, and core conditioning. Built with 50×70×2.5mm steel tube, this machine provides exceptional stability for explosive movements. The overall dimensions are 2230mm × 790mm × 1180mm, with a net weight of 62.5kg and gross weight of 66.5kg.

Key design features include an extended front fork floor contact design, a bottom bar holder for adding weight plates, and an improved semi-circular support pad for better explosive power support. These enhancements make the KP0701 suitable for commercial gyms, CrossFit boxes, and serious home gyms.

Extended Front Fork Floor Contact Design

The extended front fork design increases the machine's footprint on the floor, providing greater stability during dynamic movements. Unlike standard GHD machines that may shift or wobble during explosive hip extensions, the extended front fork keeps the machine firmly planted. This design is particularly beneficial for:

• Glute ham raises: Prevents the machine from tipping forward during the eccentric lowering phase
• Back extensions: Eliminates rocking during high-repetition sets
• Nordic hamstring curls: Provides a solid anchor for maximal hamstring contraction
• GHD sit-ups: Keeps the machine stable during explosive abdominal movements

The extended floor contact also distributes the user's weight over a larger area, reducing pressure on gym flooring and improving overall safety.

Bottom Bar Holder for Progressive Overload

The bottom is equipped with a bar holder that allows you to add weight plates to the machine. This feature enables progressive overload for advanced users who have mastered bodyweight GHD exercises. Benefits include:

• Weighted glute ham raises: Hold a weight plate against your chest or behind your head
• Weighted back extensions: Increase resistance for stronger erector spinae development
• Progressive loading: Start with bodyweight and gradually add weight as strength improves
• Versatility: The bar holder can also store weight plates when not in use

Improved Semi-Circular Support Pad

The improved semi-circular support pad has been redesigned to provide better support during explosive hip extension movements. Features include:

• Optimal contouring: The semi-circular shape matches the natural curve of the thighs and hips
• High-density foam: Provides comfort without sacrificing stability
• Durable vinyl cover: Resists sweat and wear in commercial environments
• Better power transfer: The improved design allows for more explosive hip drive during GHD sit-ups and glute ham raises

The support pad helps users maintain proper form throughout the range of motion, reducing the risk of lower back strain during high-volume training.

Specifications Summary

Applications and Target Muscles

The GHD machine is primarily used for developing the posterior chain – the glutes, hamstrings, and lower back muscles. Primary target muscles include:

• Gluteus maximus: Hip extension during glute ham raises and back extensions
• Hamstrings (biceps femoris, semitendinosus, semimembranosus): Knee flexion and hip extension
• Erector spinae: Spinal extension during back extensions and GHD sit-ups
• Rectus abdominis: Spinal flexion during GHD sit-ups

This GHD is suitable for:

• Commercial gyms and fitness centers
• Cross-training and functional fitness facilities
• College and university strength programs
• Physical therapy and rehabilitation clinics
• Home gyms with dedicated space

Customization Options

Customized logo is available for gym branding. OEM orders are accepted for custom powder coat colors and logo placement on the frame.

Packaging

The GHD is packaged in a polybag + paper carton with packaging dimensions of 960mm × 960mm × 260mm. Net weight is 62.5kg with gross weight of 66.5kg.
