Hack Squats for Females

Step 1
Load weight plates on either side of the machine. Place the same amount of weight on each side.
Step 2
Step onto the platform with your feet a few inches wider than shoulder width and place your back firmly against the pad. Push up on the shoulder pads and lift the weight enough to flip the locking lever open.
Step 3
Squat down as if you are about to sit in a chair until your thighs are parallel to the platform. Push yourself back up into the start position and repeat.
Step 4
Close the lever to lock the weight in place before you step off the machine.
