Narrow Stance Hack Squat (Machine)

Also known as: Narrow Stance Hack Squat (Machine).

Plate-loaded sled hack squat with feet deliberately closer than hip width.

How to perform this exercise

1. Set back and pelvis against the inclined pad with shoulders under the supports. Place both feet slightly narrower than hip width on the platform with both heels supported.
2. Hold both handles, extend the legs nearly straight and release the carriage according to the machine controls.
3. Bend the hips and knees to lower the carriage to a depth that retains heel and pelvic support, tracking knees with toes.
4. Push through the whole feet to return without forcefully locking the knees. Re-engage the machine catches after the set.
