Never see anyone do this in the gym.. Needless to say I got a few looks... Works really well and a lot better then the machine.. Defo gonna be using this more regular ... Thanks!!
Great! Ive never seen anyone doing it, but I started doing it last week and the guys around me were surprised what Im doing :) Its actually very nice exercise :)
Another video that show face instead of the legs Come on ...we want see the legs movement and position It's legs exercise not face exercise, so don't focus the video on his face
Great video! i have a question about the hack squats. I tried it today and found that my upper back gets rounded as i squat down although my lower back is nice and arched. Is it a problem and how to deal with it? Thanks
Always do hack squat with low weight and high rep 12-20 for set of 3-5.I was using heawy weight but i was not feeling my quads and bar always slamed to calves.
How do you avoid the bar heading your ankle on the way down? How heavy should I go? My gym doesn't allow slamming in the weights. I wanna work up to 3 and a half plates
planet fitness sounds like its aweful, I would never go there, it is kind of hard not to slam the weights doing hack squats (unless I am doing something wrong as i am new to the lift)
And how would you suggest he get the barbell to the top of the movement, aside from deadlifting it? It's like saying a Romanian deadlift is actually a conventional deadlift because you have to lift the weight up at the beginning and put it down at the end of the set.
Drinking game: take a shot every time Vince Vaughn says quads.
barbell hack squat burns my quads...I love it!
Still sore from yesterday's legs day

Thank you sir!!!!
great explanation
when i do this exercise the barbell scrapes my calves. Will this stop after some practice?
Use less weight.
Baby powder - not joking. There's a reason power lifters use it for the deadlift.
+whyconfuse maybe your legs were too straight
You can also widen your hand grip. It'll miss your legs entirely
Catch the bar wider than your shouders

Great
Now I know thank u
Do you touch the floor to single rep or leave the bar?
Looks like a reverse deadlift
Same thing, different name

Ryan O'Connor let me guess, your gym is Planet fitness.

How tall are you?
Good video btw
in other words if you don't have a gym with machine you will become more functionally strong lol
Tom Hanks, is that you?
does the cameraman have parkinsons?
That's a hack Deadlift not a hack Squat, they are two different exercises.

No.
