My quads have become more solid and shapely after only a short time Happy

Strongman/strength stuff is largely posterior dominant. I actually find front squats posterior dominant too, contrary to accepted wisdom.

I'm enjoying doing some alternative exercises, specifically ones that put less stress on the spine/body. Also did some weighted handstand press-ups this session using some parallettes (which allow a full range of movement).

Things I've learnt so far regarding the sissies...

Knee wraps eradicate knee discomfort (for me anyway).

You want to get the apparatus adjusted so that your lower legs are proper clamped stationary.

If the gyms shut again I reckon I'll buy one. Great piece of kit. I didn't know of their existence previously.

Just been looking. They range from about £50 to £400!
The £50 ones don't look too bad to me.

So did anyone get a sissy squat?
Heard about corona virus, and the American election?

Just had an extra gym session, while I've got the chance. The session included 2x10 with 50kg on sissy squats.

A month's gym closure probably doesn't justify buying one of these contraptions. I wonder if I can improvise a way of clamping my legs in this manner...?

im trying to imagine what a failed rep on one of these contraptions would result in.

Well, you don't need much weight, so it wouldn't be catastrophic! You could probably rock/cheat your way back up.

I wonder if someone will buy one, lose interest in it in favour of some cardio based fad and then sell it to me for a VERY generous price Wink
