Leg Press Hack Squat

Hack squats are loaded on the shoulders, with the lifter having to squat down and stand up to perform the exercise. The leg presses are loaded via a platform that the lifter pushes away while laying down. Both primarily target the quads, with a secondary emphasis placed on the glutes muscles.The hack squat involves standing on the plate, leaning back onto the pads at an angle, with the weight placed on top of you by positioning yourself under the shoulder pads. The weight is then pushed in the concentric phase of the squat. Simply put, when you stand back up, that's when the weight is pushed away from you.
