I like hack squats but prefer the Hammer Strength machine for it. Plus with hack squats, you're not limited by balance and your back, which allows you to push harder on legs.
If you're going to screech like a ISTtard to others demanding that they post body, then you should do the same. Otherwise, move along.
Thank you for proving my point. Further proof of a ISTtard crying like a c**t to others that demand they post body when you won't post yours. Move along, c**t.
I'm 6'5" with shit ankle mobility.
Are these hack squats actually decent? Been skipping squats for years and just taking multiple flights of stairs multiple times a day instead.
Hold up, I thought it was bad to raise your heels?
I've been doing those KotG mobility squats no problem but thought heels HAD to be on the ground for barbell mvmts
He doesnt mean stand on your tip toes, he means have your heels up on something. Something still solid, but raised.
Just thought i should make it clear.
Yes and no
You should be able to body squat with your heels on the ground. While squatting or oly lifting, many people use raised heel shoes. iirc it improves leverages, increasing the weight you can lift.
If you have shit mobility try low bar squatting.
Yeah, it's fine. You don't get much of the benefits to the core and stabilisers as you would with a barbell squat, but if for some reason you cannot do any variation of the barbell squat then there's no shame in using the squat machine.
put your feet a little more forward so that your shins are vertical during most of the lift
also do split squats or something to substitute the core engangement squats have
Why do you morons think you have to squat? Do you think the muscle fibres in your quads give a frick about whether you're squatting, leg pressing or hack squatting?

Don't need ankle mobility if you raise your heels
Hold up, I thought it was bad to raise your heels?

Yes, that's why people buy shows with a raised heel
If the alternative to squatting with raised heels is not squatting at all we'd all rather you just squat with rasied heels anon
>we'd
speak for yourself I don't give a frick what he does

morons who give advice or act like they know shit but wont post body should do dead hangs x failure.
Hurts my knees
same.
tried it but just feels really bad on the knees.
Start with less weight, hack squat demands more knee flexion but you can get used to it
get stronger knees
also dont use hack squats with a powerlifting mentality dumb frick
put your feet a little more forward so that your shins are vertical during most of the lift
also do split squats or something to substitute the core engangement squats have
Correct
who tf says barbell back squats? seriously; tell us you don't lift without telling us you don't lift, gay
MOGGED
Hack squats are something you do at the end of leg day AFTER barbell squats.
You will not make it with these
Why do you morons think you have to squat? Do you think the muscle fibres in your quads give a frick about whether you're squatting, leg pressing or hack squatting?
yes
Still didn't post body gay
