  • Hack squats (rear-facing)
  • Reverse hack squats (forward-facing)
    Simply adjust positioning by sliding the attachment.
• Compatible with Olympic Barbells (50mm)
  Fits all standard Olympic bars, including tri-grip plates and bumper plates.
• Landmine-Compatible Design

• Foam-Padded Shoulder Support
  Built-in padding enhances comfort during heavier lifts and reduces pressure on the shoulders.
