PLS–0800 Squat Press
Brand: TRUE Fitness · Category: Plate Loaded
The TRUE PLS-0800 Squat Press is a full-commercial plate-loaded seated squat press from TRUE’s Palladium series, built for commercial gyms that want heavy leg pressing through the hips with no spinal compression. A single-pivot mechanism directs force through the hips rather than the lower back and shoulders, the low-profile frame and comfortable seat make access easy, and an oversized non-skid platform with dual stops supports a variety of stances and users. It occupies 178 × 165 cm of floor.
Single pivot, no spinal compression
Maximum hip extension
Oversized non-skid platform
Dual stops for a wide range of users
Plate loaded, low-profile entry
The TRUE PLS-0800 is the squat press in TRUE Fitness’s Palladium plate-loaded line, engineered for strength and stability. Its low-profile design gives easy access and a comfortable seat position, the unique single-pivot mechanism directs force through the hips rather than the lower back and shoulders for maximum hip extension with no spinal compression, and an oversized non-skid platform supports a variety of stances while dual stops adapt the range to a wide range of users.
Who is this machine for?
The PLS-0800 suits commercial gyms, strength and athletic facilities, university and corporate fitness centres and premium home gyms in India that want members to press heavy loads with the spine unloaded, including lifters who should not squat with a barbell.
Muscles worked and key exercises
The squat press targets the quadriceps and glutes with the hamstrings and adductors assisting. Because the pivot sends the load through the hips, the glutes work through full extension, and changing stance on the oversized platform shifts the emphasis between quads, glutes and adductors.
Build quality and adjustment
The single-pivot arm carries the load into the hips, the seat and back pad are positioned low for comfort and easy entry, the platform is oversized with a non-skid surface, dual stops set the range, and the plate horns take standard Olympic plates, with an instruction placard and height-adjustment guide fitted.
Like every Palladium machine, it is TRUE’s premium plate-loaded design: unilateral lever arms that converge or diverge along the natural arc of the joint, gas-assisted seat adjustment, built-in weight-storage posts, an instruction placard and a height-adjustment guide, finished in matte-black powder coat with custom frame colours and 18 upholstery options. Resistance comes from the Olympic plates the facility already owns. TRUE backs the frame and welds for 10 years with 5 years on bearings, bushings and pulleys.
Space and installation
The PLS-0800 measures 178 × 165 × 150 cm (70" × 65" × 59") (L × W × H). The PLS-0800 measures 178 × 165 × 150 cm (L × W × H). Allow about 0.8 m clear on each side for loading plates and 0.6 m at the entry. No power is needed. Luxe Fitness delivers, assembles and levels the machine; plates are chosen separately.
Care and maintenance
Wipe the upholstery and grips after each session and unload plates between users. Check the pivot bearings, gas cylinders, plate horns and lock-outs monthly and tighten frame bolts quarterly. Book a service visit if any pivot develops play or noise.

Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the TRUE PLS-0800 and PLS-1000?
The PLS-0800 is a seated squat press that sends the load through the hips with the back supported; the PLS-1000 is a hack squat with a back pad that offloads weight against the hips while the user stands on an angled platform.
Is the TRUE PLS-0800 safe for a weak lower back?
Yes. The single pivot directs force through the hips with no spinal compression, which is exactly why it suits members who cannot squat with a barbell.
