Description The REP® Cork Squat Wedge is built to help lifters unlock deeper, safer, and more effective lower-body training. By addressing limited ankle mobility, this wedge improves range of motion (ROM) in the knees, hips, and ankles, enhancing movement mechanics and muscle activation across the quads, glutes, and hamstrings. Elevating the heels reduces the need for ankle dorsiflexion (pulling the toes toward the shin), allowing for deeper squats with a more upright torso—helping minimize strain on the lower back and knees. The result is cleaner form, greater comfort, and more targeted strength development with every rep. Key REP Cork Squat Wedge Features Enhanced Mobility: Promotes improved squat depth and posture by compensating for limited ankle ROM. Muscle Activation: Increases quad, glute, and hamstring engagement for more effective lower-body training. Injury Prevention: Supports an upright squat position to reduce joint stress on the spine and knees. High Grip Surface: Textured, nonslip cork provides stable footing and confident lifts. Superior Material: Made from biodegradable cork, offering a sustainable, eco-friendly alternative to metal or foam wedges. Lightweight Yet Strong: Weighs only ~2 lb (0.9 kg) but supports up to 700 lb (317.5 kg)—ideal for heavy lifters and on-the-go athletes. Naturally Hygienic: Cork resists moisture and bacteria, keeping your training surface fresh and clean. Versatile Use: Perfect for squats, calf raises, heel-elevated lunges, and mobility work. Portable Design: Compact and easy to fit in a gym bag or store between sessions. Whether you’re chasing deeper squats, smoother mobility, or a stronger base, the REP® Cork Squat Wedge delivers durability, performance, and sustainability—all in one compact training tool Specification Length: 8.8" (22.4 cm) Width: 5.3" (13.5 cm) Height: 4.9" (12.4 cm) Product Weight: 2.2 lb (1.0 kg) Weight Capacity: 700 lb (317.5 kg) Front Slope Angle: 25° for optimal heel elevation and natural squat mechanics Rear Slope Angle: 45° for enhanced support and stability during lifts
