Sled Closer Hack Squat
The hack squat on the sled with the feet close together; the narrow stance keeps the knees tracking straight forward.
How to do it
Setup
Back on the pad, shoulders under the rests, feet a fist apart mid-platform.
Steps
- Release the stops and lower with the knees together.
- Keep the heels planted at the bottom.
- Press up; lock the stops after the set.
Common mistakes
Heels lifting in the narrow stance: set the feet higher. Knees knocking inward: point them straight ahead over the toes. Lower back rounding at the bottom: end the rep before it curls.
Breathing
Inhale down, exhale on the press.
