Home Made Roman Squat


Roman Squat made by Pat Hodgson

This looks like an awesome piece of homemade gym equipment. Superb for hitting the quads and glutes.

The key to the exercise is in the point that he makes about "without leaning forward." The mistake most people make is to rise to a vertical position so the upper body and legs are straight up and down and you’re resting flat on your feet -- doing so takes stress off the thighs. You never want to release the stress on your thighs -- you want constant tension. Once you are locked into the Roman-chair, it is most important that you are always leaning back, even in the highest position -- this keeps stress on the thighs between and through ever rep. That’s exactly why the device holds the top of your feet and the back of your calves, otherwise you’d fall over. The best way to tell if you are doing the exercise right is whether you feel it. If your thighs don’t ache even just a little bit after one set, you are doing the movement wrong.
