Squat press

[51FTY]

I can't do squats. It does nothing for my ass and just makes my back hurt like hell. I am addicted to this machine and use it almost everyday with a very low weight. It does make my hamstrings tight and sore, but at least in a good way. Do you notice this with this machine? I have a bad back and am curious. I broke my back a long time ago.

Is this the hack squat machine?

It says squat press on it. It's where you sit and the barbells are on both sides, kinda inclined.

Maybe it but never did anything for me. I love the squat press press results. I used the smith machine for squats, I don't think I did it wrong.

I have this in my back. Doing squats makes my back hurt really bad. I know how to do squats and I never used weight, just the bar on the smith machine.

Side view.

Ouch, I would definitely avoid anything that would aggravate my back.

As of the last couple of months I'm getting a burning feeling in my lower back. Has that happened to you?

a flexible muscle is a strong muscle, not tight and stiff one.

Mobility work is so important!

Is there any natural supplements that help with back pain?
