15° Duo Wedgiez — Product Features

The 15° Duo Wedgiez are a pair of high density EVA foam squat wedges designed for heel elevation during barbell squats, split squats, deadlifts, and lower body training. Each wedge features a fixed 15° slope, 13 inches of foot space, and a grippy silicone base to prevent sliding under heavy load.

High Density Foam Construction

Made from high density EVA foam, the Duo Wedgiez are built to withstand heavy barbell loads without compressing or losing their shape over time. The foam is lightweight and durable, making these wedges easy to transport to the gym, hotel gym, garage gym, or any training environment.

Travel Friendly Squat Wedges

The Duo Wedgiez are compact and lightweight enough to fit in any gym bag, making them one of the most portable heel elevation tools available. Unlike large slant boards or fixed squat platforms, these foam wedges can be taken anywhere without adding significant weight or bulk to your training bag.

Anti-Slip Silicone Base

Each wedge features a grippy silicone pad on the base that prevents sliding on gym floors, rubber mats, and hardwood surfaces. The non-slip surface ensures the wedges stay securely in place during heavy squats, Romanian deadlifts, calf raises, and split squats without needing to be repositioned between sets.

15° Fixed Slope with 13 Inches of Foot Space

The 15° slope provides optimal heel elevation for improved squat depth, more upright torso positioning, and increased quadriceps engagement during barbell squats and goblet squats. The 13-inch wide platform accommodates both narrow and wide squat stances, making the Duo Wedgiez suitable for athletes of all body types and training styles.

Stackable for Extra Range of Motion

Stack both Duo Wedgiez together to create a 30° slope for deeper calf and Achilles tendon stretches. The stacked configuration also functions as a yoga block for wrist elevation during push-ups, reducing wrist strain and improving range of motion. This dual-purpose design makes the Duo Wedgiez useful for squatting, stretching, mobility work, and injury prevention.

Who Are the Duo Wedgiez For?

The 15° Duo Wedgiez are ideal for powerlifters, Olympic weightlifters, CrossFit athletes, personal training clients, physical therapy patients recovering from knee or ankle injuries, and anyone looking to improve squat depth and lower body mechanics. They are also recommended by certified strength and conditioning coaches and physical therapists as a tool for addressing limited ankle dorsiflexion during squats.

The Science Behind It

3 Main Reasons

There's a biomechanical reason elite coaches have used heel elevation for decades — and it works from your very first rep.

Improves Squat Depth Immediately

Limited ankle mobility restricts how deep you can squat. Heel elevation reduces the dorsiflexion demand at the ankle, allowing your knees to travel forward naturally so you can hit full depth from rep one.

📄 Study Ankle dorsiflexion demand significantly decreased with heel elevation — particularly advantageous for those with limited ankle mobility. Lu et al., MDPI Bioengineering, 2022

Increases Quad Activation

Heel elevated squats shift more load onto your quads and glutes — the muscles that are supposed to be doing the work. More quad activation means stronger legs, better knee tracking, and more effective training.

📄 Study Significant increases in vastus lateralis (quad) activation observed when heels were elevated during barbell squats. MDPI Systematic Review, 2025

Keeps Your Torso More Upright

Excessive forward lean during squats is one of the most common form breakdowns. Heel elevation allows your torso to stay upright naturally, reducing trunk lean and keeping your center of mass balanced over your feet.

📄 Study Higher wedge height produced a more upright trunk position during back squats — the steepest wedge showed the greatest reduction in trunk lean. Monteiro et al., Human Movement, 2022

The Duo Wedgiez are a pair of portable 15° heel elevation wedges made from high density foam, designed for athletes who want the performance benefits of a slant board without the bulk and weight of a fixed platform. Each wedge provides individual foot heel elevation at 15°, making them ideal for squats, split squats, deadlifts, and calf raises.

What makes the Duo Wedgiez unique is their versatility. Use them separately as individual heel elevation wedges, stack them together to create a 30° slope for deep calf and Achilles tendon stretching, or flip them flat to use as yoga blocks for wrist support during push-ups and ground-based mobility work. At just 1.6 pounds each, they are the most travel-friendly squat wedge in the SquatWedgiez lineup.

Each Duo Wedgie is 6 inches wide, 13 inches long, and 3.5 inches tall with a fixed 15° slope. Each wedge weighs just 1.6 pounds, making them the lightest and most portable squat wedge in the SquatWedgiez lineup.

When stacked together the two wedges form a solid block that is 7 inches tall with a 30° slope, one of the deepest calf and Achilles tendon stretching positions you can achieve with a portable training tool.

Yes, and this is one of the most popular reasons athletes choose the Duo Wedgiez over other squat wedges. At 1.6 pounds each, they fit easily into any gym bag, backpack, or carry-on luggage. Whether you train at a commercial gym, a hotel gym, or a garage, the Duo Wedgiez go with you without adding meaningful weight to your bag.

Despite being lightweight, the high density foam construction handles heavy barbell squats without compressing or losing shape over time. You are not sacrificing durability for portability.

Yes. Stacking both Duo Wedgiez together creates a 30° slope, which is ideal for deep calf stretching and Achilles tendon loading. Research shows that calf raises performed at a greater dorsiflexion angle, with toes elevated and heels lower, produce significantly more gastrocnemius muscle growth than flat-ground calf raises. The 30° stacked configuration gives you that position in a stable, portable format.

The stacked configuration also functions as a yoga block for exercises like wrist-elevated push-ups, where having your hands on an angled surface reduces wrist strain and improves range of motion at the bottom of the movement.

No. Each Duo Wedgie features a grippy silicone base that locks it in place on rubber gym flooring, hardwood, and concrete surfaces. The silicone grip prevents the wedges from shifting between reps or sets, even under heavy barbell loads. You can squat with confidence knowing the wedge is not going anywhere mid-set.

The Duo Wedgiez are one of the most versatile heel elevation tools available. Use them for barbell squats, goblet squats, split squats, Bulgarian split squats, deadlifts, Romanian deadlifts, hip thrusts, calf raises, and lunges. Stack them for deep calf and Achilles stretching at 30°. Use them flat as yoga blocks for wrist-elevated push-ups and ground-based mobility work. They replace multiple tools with one compact pair.

Yes. The 15° heel elevation of the Duo Wedgiez reduces the ankle dorsiflexion required during squats and split squats, allowing your knees to track forward and your hips to reach full depth without the restriction that limited ankle mobility creates. Athletes with tight calves, Achilles tendon tightness, or a history of ankle sprains commonly use heel elevated squat wedges to train effectively while mobility improves over time.

The 30° stacked configuration also provides a deep Achilles and calf stretch that directly addresses the tightness contributing to limited dorsiflexion in the first place.
