Muscles Targeted:

• This exercise is a compound movement that targets the quads, hamstrings, and glutes.

• Using the hex bar instead of a barbell allows for more quad use and less hamstring, glute and low back.

Form:

• Start by standing inside the hex bar at about shoulder width, and gripping the middle of each handle.

• Keep your butt down and chest up at the bottom of each movement.

• Brace your core and extend your knees and hips simultaneously.

Rep Ranges:

• This exercise can be performed in any rep range and is a good option if you want to lift heavy.
