uses
Used for: Heavy quad work on leg day
Praised: Allows heavy loading without hip pain
vs: Chosen over back squats, which caused hip pain
"Back squats, for me, I always got a internal hip pain... And so hack squats allow me to put a lot of weight on there and keep my nice right angle between the hip and my back."
