TKO Signature Hack Squat for Guided Plate-Loaded Leg Training:
The TKO (714HS) Plate-Loaded Hack Squat uses a linear guided path and supportive angled back pad to create a controlled lower-body pressing movement with the familiar resistance of Olympic plates. The supported body position reduces the balance demands of a free-weight squat and is designed to lessen spinal stress while keeping the legs responsible for driving the load. This combination makes the machine well suited to commercial strength rooms that want a dedicated squat pattern with straightforward setup and repeatable mechanics.
Oversized Foot Platform Expands Stance Options:
This plate-loaded hack squat machine provides a broad foot platform that gives users room to adjust stance width and foot position within the guided movement. The angled back support helps stabilize the torso, while easy-access safety handles let users lock or release the carriage from the exercise position. Together, those features make setup intuitive for experienced lifters and easier for coaches or staff to explain in schools, athletic facilities, military gyms, studios, and commercial fitness centers.
Integrated Plate Storage Keeps the Strength Area Organized:
This TKO Commercial Hack Squat Machine includes onboard storage horns so Olympic plates can remain close to the machine instead of occupying separate floor storage during busy training periods. The heavy commercial frame, supportive contact surfaces, and guided pressing mechanism are built for repeated shared use, while plate-loaded resistance lets facilities use the same Olympic inventory already common throughout a strength room. The result is a focused lower-body station that pairs free-weight loading flexibility with a more controlled movement path than traditional barbell squatting.

Frequently Asked Questions:
- Does the TKO 714HS Hack Squat ship free? Yes. Gtech Fitness includes free shipping on the 714HS within the contiguous United States, which helps simplify budgeting for facilities planning to add a dedicated commercial plate-loaded hack squat station.
- Are Olympic weight plates included? No. The base unit does not come with plates. This machine is designed to be loaded with Olympic-style weight plates for resistance, so most facilities will use their existing plate inventory or purchase additional gym weight plates separately as needed.
- How does the 714HS differ from a barbell squat? The 714HS moves on a linear guided track and uses an angled, supportive back pad instead of a barbell resting on the shoulders. This design reduces balance demands and can lessen stress on the lower back while still challenging the legs with plate-loaded resistance. Many facilities use it to offer a consistent squat pattern for a wide range of users alongside free-weight squat options.
- What does the safety handle do? The integrated safety handle allows the user to lock or release the moving carriage from the exercise position. Once on the seat pad, the user can unlock the sled to begin the set, then re-engage the mechanism at the end of the range of motion. This helps make starts and finishes more controlled, especially in busy commercial environments.
- How much space should I reserve for the machine? TKO lists the 714HS at approximately 86.7 inches long, 74.8 inches wide, and 51 inches high. In addition to this footprint, allow extra clearance at the front and sides for loading and unloading plates, plus room behind and beside the machine so users can enter, exit, and adjust stance safely without crowding nearby equipment.
