The ATX® Squat Block certainly looks the part. But the real highlight is its clever design which lets you get into the perfect squatting position.
In the good old days if you lacked the flexibility to get the required depth in the squat you resorted to desperate measures to elevate the heels, using whatever you could get your hands on; from pieces of timber to weight plates.
While these worked fine if you were just messing about in the gym, for a high-performance coach or trainer a more professional solution was required. That’s where ATX® stepped in.
- Improve your squat technique.
- Angled for optimal squat form.
- Extremely durable solid robber – virtually unbreakable.
- Ribbed for grip and getting correct heel positioning.
- Great for calf raises!
- When you are not using it for squatting, it doubles as a deadlift wedge.
- 70cm in length to cater for wider stances.
Add Variety To Your Training
The heel block is made mostly for squats, but is also great for bodybuilders wishing to better isolate their quads. I can hear the chorus of disapproval from the hardcore strength trainers who think this sort of thinking is nonsense. But after years of seeing the benefits of squatting on an angle with the Leverage Squat machines, I can vouch for the effectiveness of this method.
If you are a home trainer, this squat block is a great way to add some variety to your leg training. Continue doing your heavy barbell squats in the traditional method. But for some variety, get your Squat Stand Block out and do some higher rep work.
The angled position takes some load off your lower back, so you will be able to really blast your quads!

Really impressed with this squat block. I’ve been lifting my heels a little on squats for a while and my friend told me to get one of these. I tested using a weight plate first and it made a huge difference so I thought I’d get a proper squat block. This is so much better than individual wedges which can move around. The ATX block is really solid and stays put. It gives you a lot of confidence. I’ve tried it with many different squats and it’s perfect. It’s the ideal height in my opinion as a bit of a one size fits all solution. And it’s brilliant for calf raises too. In a home gym where space is precious it’s awesome having something that does two things. Couldn’t be happier with it.
