Dual-Purpose Design for Maximum Versatility
What sets the DRE8016 apart is its dual-exercise capability. With a uniquely engineered footplate and seat configuration, users can effortlessly switch between seated leg press mode and hack squat positioning. This feature adds a layer of training diversity rarely seen in selectorized equipment—helping users target different muscle angles and joint mechanics without needing multiple machines.

This adaptability makes the DRE8016 an excellent fit for high-performance strength athletes, general gym-goers, and physical therapy clients who require movement variety without compromising safety.
Engineered for Custom Fit and Comfort
To accommodate users of all shapes, sizes, and mobility levels, the DRE8016 features multiple points of ergonomic adjustability:
- A 5-position adjustable backrest enables users to find their ideal hip and torso angle, promoting safe spinal alignment during both presses and squats.
- The 9 starting postions are designed to accommodate users of different heights and varying ankle mobility.
- 9-position shoulder pads support a stable and customizable fit for hack squat movements, providing added comfort and control under heavy loads.
These features work together to promote proper form, reduce joint stress, and enhance workout efficiency for all levels of training experience.

What exercises can I perform with the DRE8016?
The DRE8016 allows you to perform two compound leg movements—the seated leg press and the supine hack squat—on a single platform. This enables you to train quads, hamstrings, glutes, and calves with complete control and variation.
How do I switch between leg press and hack squat modes?
Transitioning between exercises is simple and seamless. Adjust the footplate and backrest positioning using the built-in mechanism to switch between seated and supine modes. The intuitive design makes it easy for users to change setups without tools or delay.
Is the machine suitable for users of different heights?
Absolutely. The machine features 9-position adjustable seat and shoulder pads, accommodating users of various heights and limb lengths. This ensures proper form and joint alignment for everyone from shorter users to tall athletes.
Does it come pre-assembled?
The DRE8016 requires assembly, but it comes with a detailed user manual for step-by-step guidance. For commercial setups, professional assembly is recommended for optimal safety and alignment.
Is this machine compatible with digital workout tracking or fitness apps?
While it doesn’t include built-in electronics, many users log workouts using popular fitness apps. The clear weight stack increments make it easy to track resistance, sets, and reps manually.
Can this machine be used by teenagers or seniors?
Yes, under supervision. Thanks to its controlled range of motion and ergonomic support, the DRE8016 is appropriate for seniors, teens, and users undergoing rehabilitation. Adjustments can be made for comfort and safety.
What is the maximum resistance offered? Can it be upgraded?
The machine includes a 309 lb selectorized weight stack, which is ideal for most strength training applications. At this time, weight upgrades are not available, but the resistance is more than adequate for both beginners and advanced users.
Does the movement feel smooth and natural?
Yes. The DRE8016 uses a commercial-grade pulley and cable system to ensure a fluid, frictionless motion. This provides consistent tension across the entire range of movement, minimizing wear and enhancing user control.
Can I use this machine in a home gym?
Definitely. The DRE8016 is compact enough for high-end home gyms while still delivering commercial-level durability and performance. It's especially great for users looking to consolidate space with dual-function equipment.
Is the DRE8016 designed for heavy lifters and athletes?
Yes. With a robust 309 lb selectorized stack and commercial-grade steel frame, the DRE8016 can handle intense training sessions, making it ideal for powerlifters, bodybuilders, and athletes seeking serious resistance and durability.
Can I isolate different muscle groups depending on my foot position?
Absolutely. Changing your foot placement on the platform allows you to emphasize different muscles—higher placement targets glutes and hamstrings, while lower placement focuses more on quads. Wider stance engages inner thighs.
Does the machine have anti-slip foot platforms?
Yes. The footplates are coated with non-slip surface material to ensure safe foot positioning during both leg press and hack squat movements.
Is there any risk of tipping or movement during use?
Not at all. Weighing in at 787 lbs total, the DRE8016 is highly stable. It remains grounded and balanced during high-resistance workouts, without requiring floor bolting in most setups.
How do I clean and maintain the DRE8016?
Maintenance is easy. Wipe the pads with a damp cloth after each use. Monthly checks on cable tension and lubrication of the guide rods will keep the system operating smoothly. Refer to the manual for full maintenance instructions.
Are there any exposed cables or moving parts that could be a safety concern?
No. The cable system is enclosed within sleek shrouds, minimizing pinch points or entanglement risks. This adds a layer of safety for both home and gym environments.
Is it noisy during operation?
Not at all. The DRE8016 is built with high-quality pulleys and bearings, ensuring quiet, fluid motion that’s suitable for apartment gyms or spaces with noise sensitivity.
What’s the difference between this and a traditional plate-loaded leg press?
This selectorized version offers quicker weight changes and better safety, especially for solo users. It doesn’t require loading/unloading plates and delivers smooth resistance ideal for volume training and joint health.
Does the hack squat position offer full range of motion?
Yes. The backrest and footplate configuration allow users to achieve a deep squat position with proper lumbar and shoulder support, ensuring full engagement of the glutes and hamstrings.
Can I pair this with other lower body machines?
Absolutely. For a complete leg day setup, we recommend pairing the DRE8016 with the DRE8015 Prone Leg Curl and Glute Training Machines for balanced development.
Is there a limit on user weight capacity?
The machine is built to handle high-performance training environments, with a user weight capacity typically exceeding 400 lbs, depending on load and motion. Always follow safety guidelines listed in the manual.
Does Dynasty Fitness offer replacement parts if needed?
