Hit Your Legs with Barbell-End Hack Squats

http://www.powerfultrainingsecrets.com - This exercise is GREAT for thigh work (note: if you have knee issues, don't squat down as deeply as I do in the demo). It's a homemade hack squat setup that allows you focus on hitting the thighs while not locking your body into the movement like with the hack machine. You get the benefits of free weight along with the stability benefits of a machine. Great for training at home when you don't have a barbell rack for squats!

I've tried this and it WORKS. I was able to increase my indurance and improve on my marathons. Most leg exercises hurt my knees and I've avoided them until I watched this video and tried it myself. Thanks Nissonnick:0)

@jewellssweety595 You're welcome! Glad it worked well for you!

neither is practical for anyone reasonbly strong as you wont be able to shoulder a weight heavy enough.You could hold the bar between your legs like a deadlift without so much back stress.

@alexjones234 they take heavy weights off racks,youd be better off holding the weight between your legs like a sumo deadlift.If you want to work quads then a full depth front squat olympic style would be hard to beat

[nilssonnick]

@alexjones234 Yeah, I don't get bored in the gym, that's for sure :)

[alexjones234]
