HACK SQUAT
An excellent quadriceps
exercise! It also includes the
glutes and hams.
Implementation: Go a bit past parallel
on the hack squat machine, which works the
glutes, as well. Pause for a second at the bottom;
then go straight back up, keeping your back flat against the pad at all times, which protects the lower back. “The movement back up is
under control, push with your heels rather than your toes to keep the stress off
your knees. At the top pause for a second before going back down.
