Sled Reverse Hack Squat

1. Load the hack squat machine with the desired amount of weight

2. Stand on the platform with your back against the pad and your shoulders under the shoulder pads.

3. Position your feet at about shoulder-width apart with your toes slightly pointing out.

4. Grab the side handles of the machine, brace your core, and remove the safety bars by twisting them.

5. Slowly lower your body down by bending your knees, keeping your back flat against the pad. Inhale as you descend.

6. Lower yourself until your thighs are at least parallel to the platform or as low as you can comfortably go without compromising your form.

7. Drive through your heels and extend your legs to push the weight back up to the starting position. Exhale as you ascend.

8. Repeat for the desired number of repetitions

9. After completing your set, safely re-rack the sled by twisting the handles and securing the safety bars before exiting the machine.

Remember to perform the exercise with controlled movements and avoid locking out your knees at the top of the movement. Make sure to adjust the weight and seat settings to match your height and comfort level before beginning the exercise.
