Exercise Instructions:
The hack squat is one of the best exercises for upper leg development. Setup the hack machine by loading the weight you want to use. Position yourself with your back flat on the pad and shoulders up against the shoulder pads. Position your feet at around shoulder width apart. Push up to take the weight off the stack, place your arms on the side handles of the machine and disengage the safety bars. This is the starting position for the movement. Slowly lower the weight down until your thighs are at approximately right angles with your calves. Pause, then push the weight back up to the starting position without locking your knees at the top of the movement. Repeat for desired reps.
Tips:
Do not lock your knees out at the top of the reps. Lower the weight slowly.
