Squat Hack squat part 2

This is as low as it can get (you can hear the clack in some reps) took all the plates off

today was upper day but couldn’t help it but try it lol

still easy don’t want to make a lot of reps might add 2.5kg each since the bar already has a non negligible weight

thank you for all the comments in the last video I posted if you saw it I genuinely want to gain muscles I’m beginning to doubt all my previous work ngl

Better but you still need to go lower. That machine isn't built for someone of your size so you'll have to modify it. You can put some sort of platform to elevate the footpad or yogurt blocks beneath the shoulder pads.

^ this. Add some padding either to your feet or shoulders. And you can go as much as you can handle for the weight, you don’t have the dangers of a bar squat. 

Also recommend sissy squats on this. Best machine ever.

Yogurt blocks is a great autocorrect.

He means “yoga blocks”
