Hack Squat

Hack Squat

Preparation
Place your back on the back pad of the machine. Hook your shoulders under the shoulder pads. Place feet on platform at a comfortable width apart, around shoulder width or slightly wider. Toes pointed straight or slightly outward. Extend hips and knees. Release the safety levers.

Execution
Flex hips and knees to descend until knees are just short of complete flexion. Raise sled by extending knees and hips. Do not fully lock out the knees at the top position. Repeat.

Comments
Adjust machine to accommodate near full range of motion without forcing pelvis to rise at waist. Keep knees pointed same directions as feet. Do not allow heels to raise off of platform, pushing with both heel and forefoot.
