Overview
This squat wedge is a black slant board weighing about 1.5 pounds, designed to elevate the heels during squats and other weightlifting movements.
Heel elevation changes the angle of a squat, letting lifters with limited ankle mobility sit deeper without the heels lifting off the floor. A dedicated wedge block is a more stable alternative to stacking plates under the heels for the same effect.
- Weighs 1.5 pounds
- Black finish
- Heel elevation design
- Built for squats
Who it's for
Useful for lifters working on squat depth or dealing with ankle mobility limits, and for coaches cueing form in a home or commercial gym. Not needed by lifters who already squat flat footed to full depth.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Purpose built for heel elevation
- Lightweight and easy to store
- More stable than stacking plates
- Dimensions and incline angle not specified
Performance notes
Elevating the heels shifts the shin angle forward, which reduces how much ankle dorsiflexion a squat demands and can let a lifter reach a deeper position while staying stable. Being a purpose built wedge rather than stacked plates, it should sit flatter and more securely under the heels.
