Comparison: Cable Sissy Squat/BW Sissy Squat

✅For those who want to argue that the first variation is not a traditional Sissy Squat, have at it.
🔺Call it what you want as this is for ‘comparison’ purposes only to clarify what’s happening in regards to the actual load the quadriceps are experiencing.
🔑Line of resistance relative to operating lever of target muscles.
🔺I will not engage in semantically-driven battles.

0:24 only critique I have of this execution is if you are using the heel blocks, your heels should not come off the heel blocks. Whole point of the heel blocks is to over more range of motion when you kneel back.

What about sissy squats on a hack squat machine, is it as good

[@vmac65]

Depends on the individual. Some respond as well some do not. Definitely worth experimenting.

[@cv0669]

if you don't have wedges do you think it's okay to use squat shoes and put them under plates?

[@nikolaja5979]

Can you recommend the sissy squat machine/device? Thanks.
