WHY USE ECCENTRIC BENCH/SQUAT HOOKS?

Enhanced muscle engagement: By emphasising the eccentric phase, where the muscle elongates under tension, these hooks can increase muscle strength and size more effectively than concentric-focused training. The eccentric phase is important because it generates greater muscle damage and stimulates more growth, making it particularly popular with bodybuilders. 

Increased strength in sticking points: They enable overloading in the eccentric phase, helping to strengthen the points in your lift where you're typically weakest.

Versatility: Suitable for various exercises, these hooks can be adjusted for height and accommodate different training needs, allowing for paused reps, controlled descents, and explosive ascents.

Safety: When set correctly, the hooks unload the weight as soon as it touches the ground, preventing overexertion and reducing the risk of injury.

FEATURES

Adjustable height: With 30mm increments available, you can customize the hook height from 58cm to 106cm to match your specific range of motion for different exercises.

Robust construction: Designed to support heavy loads with a solid base that ensures stability during use.

Compatibility: These hooks are made for standard 50 mm Olympic plates.

Quality bit of kit, well worth it

I have had these for about 4 weeks and have been using them mainly for benching, I have to say great bit of kit, I've added probably 4-reps to what was my 1 rep max. I have not been able to find these anywhere else in the UK, I have only seen US based people use them and wondered what difference they make. Well they defo do and well worth the money, I bought them on a special with £50 discount. Can't fault the service from Strength Shop either, they came within a day and half from ordering. Just about to start squatting with them, may drop another review once I see how that goes. Highly recommend for anyone looking to bump up their max strength.
