What do you think? Too complicated?

@djbakasan 8 месяцев назад

Maybe I missed it, but any reason the hack squat setup is using the landmine + J cup combo vs a Henny strap? The landmine side def seems more stable but the J cup portion less so while the loaded bar is resting on it and angled like that. Def intrigued about picking up all the various bits and pieces to do it though since I’ve a lot of the parts already.

@Trumeris 8 месяцев назад

You could use a spotter arm below the j cup to catch the weight should you fail. Stay safe out there

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

The Henny setup requires a lot more weight to get an effective load through the ROM

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

That’s an awesome idea. I’m also toying with adding leg rollers vertically as a back rest. They’re taller and may act as a safety themselves.

@KOstradivarius21 8 месяцев назад

It’s content and products like this that will truly innovate the home gym space. An alternative to a leg press and hack squat are on of the biggest needs in the home gym space. And like you touched on some of the other set ups and alternatives are too complicated for most to be practical. Thank you!

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

Thanks for the compliment. Hopefully this will inspire some people to either try or innovate using other things.

So true about coming into your workout with a game plan. It’s so much better to set up your next exercise in between sets of you current exercise. Helps keep hour hr up during your entire workout

Great idea for smaller spaces. BWTG is the best! I have a custom rack, 10" log and many other pieces from Dean and they are superb quality. Supporting a veteran owned small business is icing on the cake. 🗽

@jamestonbellajo 8 месяцев назад

Great hack Kurt. I’ve actually done hack squats and calf raises in almost the exact same way except I just use a Viking press attachment. I cut a cheap barbell squat pad in half and put them on the inside handles of the attachment.

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

Had another comment like that. They used pool noodles as the pads.

@scooobyj8714 8 месяцев назад

Awesome set up. I do something very similar with a landmine. Only difference is I use a titan fitness Viking press attachment with pool noodles as padding.

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

Pool noodles to the rescue!

@@TheKurtlocker yeah...I suppose I could’ve picke a better word. Perhaps fiddley...I mean, I dig where you’re coming from, and wanting to do those moves. I’m just not certain I’d bother. But that’s why I appreciate guys like you and the smaller manufacturer’s driving innovations.

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

@Invictus13666 it’s all good man. I took your comment productively and I appreciate it. I think that making something as simple as possible can be the difference between success and failure. If I can make this easier, I will.

@themalloftheinternet5682 2 месяца назад

I agree safety first. I have a traditional landmine were it sits on the floor. I use the side of a safety spotter arm to hold the bar at whatever elevation I decide on. This allows me to do almost the same thing (not quite as high). If you have a smith machine you could use that bar as your safety to support the bar using a landmine as well. If you do that I suggest putting foam padding (pool noodle or plumbing pipe insulation) over the smith machine bar so it doesn't get scratched up. Just cut a straight line thru one side of the padding so it can easily be taken on and off the smith machine bar.

@TheKurtlocker 2 месяца назад

Awesome ideas but I still will be a safety third kind of person. Thanks for watching!

@briand5047 8 месяцев назад

Great video. Regarding safety and if injured and not getting help until found, I've wondered if anyone uses an old baby monitor as a home gym monitor for that reason. Seems like not a bad idea.

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

I have a home security system that does 2-way audio. My wife will sometimes get concerned and just check on me.

@joeblair77 8 месяцев назад

I like it! For more safety I think you should set up one of the safety arms so if you get stuck you got the arm to set the bar on. Otherwise fantastic!

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

That’s an awesome idea and it would be a lot safer

@meisdetermined 4 месяца назад

Man I appreciate the info about setting up for your next movement. I wonder if videos about “how to quickly get through my workout” would be a good video or possibly series? And if people don’t like one movement they can possibly pull from your ideas from others. Just a thought. Great stuff/video (as always!)

@TheKurtlocker 4 месяца назад

That’s a good idea for a series. When u do my own programming I’ll take setup into consideration to improve flow and timing.

@raps7027 8 месяцев назад

That's fairly creative Kurtis, the only day I actually train at my commercial Gym is when I train legs, because I like using the Hack Squat and Leg Press and Smith Machine, unfortunately I have no room in my Garage for these machines. (LoL). I was wondering if you could put some Mutant Handles (7 inch/12 inch) in that last hole beside the shoulders pads for more stability and grip your hands? I use mine for my Lever arms as I don't like the original Lever arms, but I love my custom knurled Mutant metals ones.

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

I’ll give it a try! I actually had an idea to customize a set of rack rollers by taking off the forward pad and replacing that space with a knurled handle portion..maybe even bend them down like on a transformer bar

@minhinh0 7 месяцев назад

if you turn around and stand on a plate this setup would be great for calf raises. have you tried calf raises yet? currently doing landmine calf raises and this would be quite an improvement.

@TheKurtlocker 7 месяцев назад

I haven’t tried that yet but I’ll give it a shot

@joecowan3719 8 месяцев назад

Very cool set up of a movement many people miss when they start their home gym. How does it feel on your knees, would squat wedges turned around feel even better? It almost looks like a sissy-hack squat combo move, but it also could just be the angle of the camera. Always cooking up some fun training stuff in your small garage gym. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!

@TheKurtlocker 8 месяцев назад

Happy thanksgiving to you as well! 🦃 squat wedges would be nice but aren’t necessary. Knees felt great the whole time. I just snap crackle and pop a lot!

@MrPanthers23 6 месяцев назад

Ive been intrigued by this attachment. I think if i were to do it, id have the landmine facing the side. That way, i can have a safety strap underneath the bar on the opposite side as a bail out to catch the bar if something happens. Does that make sense?

@TheKurtlocker 6 месяцев назад

That does make sense. Not a bad idea at all. Safer can be better

Do you have a video on a DIY pendulum squat at home?

@TheKurtlocker 23 дня назад

On my instagram I do but it was a bit ago. Is that something you're interested in seeing?

@brianmccrum299 22 дня назад

@@TheKurtlocker Yeah, I don't know how doable it would be. I realize that I can't just mount a landmine on my basement concrete wall, because it's not like there's a socket that secures the lever arm to the fulcrum. Ideally, a longer jammer arm that I could mount on my wall for the right angled height (I'm 6' 7") and then some sort of loading mechanism behind me, like those linebacker attachments that Titan sells. Idk, I wonder how doable it would be for home gym, probably too unrealistic honestly. Your video here looks like a much better hack for the home gym.
