The hack squat machine builds massive quad strength while supporting your back. It lets you squat heavy without worrying about balance or falling backward.
1. Set the hack squat machine shoulder pads at the right height for your frame 2. Step onto the platform with feet shoulder-width apart, toes slightly pointed out 3. Position your shoulders under the pads and release the safety handles 4. Lower down slowly by bending your knees until thighs are parallel to the platform 5. Push through your heels to drive back up to the starting position on the hack squat machine
• Keep your core tight throughout the entire hack squat machine movement • Don't let your knees cave inward - push them out in line with your toes • Control the weight down slowly rather than dropping fast • Keep your back flat against the pad during the hack squat machine exercise
• Placing feet too high on the platform reduces quad activation in the hack squat machine • Going too fast on the way down puts stress on your knees and joints • Not going deep enough limits the benefits of the hack squat machine exercise
