The OG Strive Smart Strength pieces still hit different. 👊
These aren’t just selectorized machines… they were way ahead of their time.
The Smart Strength Technology allows you to manipulate the resistance curve through the entire movement by changing the cam position:
🟡 Position 1 = easier peak contraction
âš« Position 2 = balanced resistance
đź”´ Position 3 = heavier peak contraction / more shortened overload
Essentially giving you multiple resistance profiles in ONE machine.
This setup includes:
▪️ Strive Smart Strength Leg Extension
▪️ Strive Smart Strength Seated Leg Curl
For the people who appreciate biomechanics, feel, and true muscle loading… these machines were special. The ability to change where the exercise is hardest completely changes the stimulus without changing the movement itself.
A lot of modern equipment still hasn’t caught up to what Strive was doing years ago.
Vintage innovation. Elite feel. Still some of the best leg pieces ever made.
