V Squat
The V Squat is a great exercise for going heavy and putting a lot of good stress on your body. Unlike regular squats, using the V squat, your back is supported and you are on a track so you balance doesn't come into play.
Primary Muscles Used
V Squat Instructions
- Place your shoulders on the designated area on the machine.
- Keep your knees slightly bent, spine straight (but neutral), and core tight.
- Squat down - bending your knees until your upper legs are parallel to the ground.
- Mimic movement as though you're sitting down into a chair.

Tim's list of benefits for the V Squat
- The V Squat machine allows you to get the benefits of a barbell squat for developing the quadriceps, glutes, calves, and hamstrings without having to worry about balance.
- By varying your foot position you can emphasize different muscles. It builds strength in these muscles and you can use it to overcome imbalances.
- This is one of the safest exercise for heavy leg workouts.
- Heavy V Squats put a lot of good stress on your body, and your body responds to this stress by increasing testosterone and growth hormone release.
