I died at the "Goldie Locks and the 3 Dwarves" lol.....I remember 3 Bears but never any Dwarves haha....

Dont care about your heels that much guys. our forfoot is made to get stressed, we jump and land on those things we sprint etc. also the hacksquat is made to work like that. when you move in control you should not worry. Its a good way to load your quads even more to let the heels come up a bit also it will work on the flexibility of your ankle especially your achilles tendon which should be tolerate a ton of force you can even hang a car on that fukker if its not stiff and dead.

One thing that many hack squats get wrong is not having a shorter back pad. Not too short, but just enough to let the bum curl under ever so slightly. This takes the shearing force off the knees considerably. No more sore knees!

I think those were bears in Goldilocks not dwarfs but great video! Totally helped me with the pads above the shoulder’s considering I’m basically a dwarf myself👍

can you do a video on those horrible hack squat machines that LA fitness has. The hack squat machines with only a little pad for your butt, no shoulder support at all, and a horrible incline for your feet. My knees always hurt when I use that type of machine. thank you

Very inspiring, specially to me. I learn a lot from u … keep it up . Love from india🇮🇳

Hypertrophy Coach is the man!!!!!! Great advice as always!!! Keep up the good work brotha 👍👍👍

Imma have to get my ass in that gym and film you myself! We would all love more videos Joe!

Thanks for the informative Video!

That extra ROM idea is awesome!

Thanks for covering the challenge I face at 4’11” tall. I had noticed @michaelaaycock uses this technique with the extra pad depth under the machine shoulder pads and she spent some time training with you.

What's your opinion Joe on what Dr Mike isratael said on resistance bands attached to leg press, or hack squat a couple weeks ago on his KZfaq video

Surprised you have the Arsenal one, doesn’t seem to get too much love from most who have used other models.

Patellar tendon feels like it’s about to snap like a rubberband.. maybe hack squats aren’t for me or am I doin it wrong..?

for me putting the toes out can be painful, it happened to develop some knee joint pain. All fine if I keep the toes in line with the heels. Also I found myself comfortable having the feet on the medium-high section of the platform, if I place them further down the heels lift up. What's the reason for that? Height? (I'm 6'2")? Hip mobility?

Very informative 🙏🏼

Great Advice

Can you make more but for safety bar? Great vid Coach !

How do you know where to set the platform your feet go on? I've always wondered why it was adjustable and how to set it the right way.

hi! thanks for the video. QQ; It is necessary go to the bottom on each rep? Isn't enough to go down to 90°? I had a knee surgery and I feel that I have some limitation if I go too deep. thank you!

Hi, can you activate the automatic sub about the lower lats video? Thanks

Very helpful- is there anything we need to do with adjusting the bottom plate/platform if at all?

i really struggle with pressure on the foot when i am in the bottom position. i often have most of my pressure on the front of my foot and its really hard for me to distribute it to the middle of the foot. is this a problem? any tips?

Hack squats hurt my knee. Sticking with Front and Bulgarian split squats.

Ho Joe, do you have any tips on fixing an anterior pelvic tilt?

Any additional tips for the hammerstrength linaer hack squat?

I don't know if you answer your comment section but I have a question about the hack squat, last time i did it i pinched something in the middle/upper back and had to stop my workout because I couldn't really move after. Took 4 days of rest and it was okay after but I'm still wondering what happened in my back. Thank you

Does back angle matter for quad emphasis?

This is great, coach. I have been considering getting a leg device for the garage gym as back/front squats are getting a bit stale and to reduce axial loading. I have been looking at bells of Steele belt squat, various leg presses, hack squats and pendulum squat device. Any recommendations if you were to get one leg device?

Haha, I’m 5’7 and was wondering what I was doing wrong cause it won’t let me go deep 🤣
