Impulse Fitness Vertical Knee Raise / Dip Station (SL7045)

The Impulse Fitness Vertical Knee Raise SL7045 is a professional core and abdominal training station for gyms, athletic centers, personal training studios, and demanding home gyms. The equipment was specifically designed for training the abdominal muscles and overall core stability. Thanks to its ergonomic design, the station allows for effective and joint-friendly training of the rectus abdominis, lower abdominal muscles, and hip flexors. The integrated dip handles further expand training possibilities with effective exercises for triceps, shoulders, and chest muscles.

The Impulse Fitness SL series stands for high-quality commercial strength training equipment focusing on stability, ergonomics, and durability. The series was developed for professional training environments and impresses with massive steel frame constructions, high-quality upholstery, and a biomechanically optimized design. This makes the SL series ideal for heavily used gyms and performance centers.

Vertical knee raises are among the most effective exercises for building a strong core. Compared to classic crunches, the abdominal muscles are particularly intensely challenged by the vertical body position. At the same time, hip flexors, core stabilizers, and other supporting muscle groups are activated. This not only improves abdominal muscles but also contributes to better posture, stability, and athletic performance.

HOW DOES THE VERTICAL KNEE RAISE STATION WORK?
The user rests their forearms on the ergonomically shaped armrests and leans their back against the stable back pad. Then, the knees are controlled upwards towards the chest and slowly lowered again. This movement intensively activates the abdominal muscles throughout the entire range of motion. Advanced athletes can also perform the exercise with straight legs or additional weights to further increase training intensity.

EFFECTIVE CORE TRAINING
The station enables targeted training of the rectus abdominis and lower abdominal muscles. The stable body position allows the target muscles to be trained in isolation, while minimizing unwanted compensatory movements.

INTEGRATED DIP STATION
The integrated parallel handles also allow for classic dips to strengthen the triceps, chest, and shoulders. This means the equipment offers multiple training options within a single station.

ERGONOMIC ARM AND BACK PADS
The generously sized pads are ergonomically shaped and slightly angled inwards. This provides the user with optimal support and high comfort even during intense training sessions.

SAFE ENTRY FOR ALL BODY SIZES
The integrated non-slip step assist facilitates safe entry onto the equipment. This allows for comfortable use for users of different body sizes.

ROBUST CONSTRUCTION FOR GYM USE
The reinforced steel frame with professional powder coating was developed for continuous daily use. The four-point supported construction ensures maximum stability even with intensive use.
