Sissy Squats

What a silly name! There's nothing sissy about these things! My quads are killing.

Maybe it's short hand for "assisted". :rolleyes:

well those just look like torture!!

Hmmm.... now I want to try some. Be back later to report if I lived through them.

Glutes are getting sore now too. Although that could be from the plyometric stuff I did in between.

wow- that was not easy. And I wasn't even using any added weight.
How do you keep your knees from hurting while doing that? I appeared to be doing it just like the little video lady, but my knees did not appreciate that.
I can see how they would be beneficial tho for sure!!! Well-done! :)

Now get back to teaching!!;)

My trainer puts a weight belt around a post and I lean back against the weight belt which is just below my knees.
