I always saw hacksquats as an compound squat movement so I try to move as much weight as possible at this one with perfect execution.
But if you use it later in the workout maybe you can do it as a kind of a stability or isolation movement.

Restday today, sunday always client checkin time and try to rest up as much as possible because tomorrow is deadliftday.
Did a nice walk outside, some mobility and stretching to stay as fresh as possible????

slightly lower bar closer to the shins everything else looks fine

Pushday today went very well picture with numbers attached.

[Kevin Stütz]

Personally I can‘t do it at the beginning of the workout because it hurts my knees + I love to do a hamstringcurl first after calves…warms up my knees so well.

I place calves first because at the end of the workout I am just fatigued and wouldn‘t mind skipping them. Another reason to put calves first is ankle mobility for your squat(-variation).

Back to your question I can do every legextension I ever used full stack+ some kgs for more than 10-15 reps at the end of the workout. So I don‘t see a point putting them before the compounds and do a million reps????

Hope this answers your question sufficient enough ????

[Kevin Stütz]

Extra days off are the best you can do to your body give the body time to grow and if you are well rested and recovered go in with full effort????????????

Decent legsession today:
seated Calfraises 2
lying hamstringcurls 2
rev banded hacksquats 2
horizontal legpress 2
banded hipthrusts 3
leg extensions 2
add abd superset 3/3

overall good session couldn’t get more reps on the hacksquat at the loading set but 1 more at the backoff
which is fine
all other numbers progressed.

[Kevin Stütz]

Also my opinion controlled est levels throughout the prep but at the end of the prep near contest time on the lower half to get rid of all the water.

[Kevin Stütz]

Had a superb Pushday today
cybex high incline press
precor shoulderpress
hs dipmachine
atlantis side raisesmachine
hs flymachine
tri db overheadextensions

all in all very good session
touched 7pps on the cybex for 4 reps and 6pps on the precor for 5 reps
that‘s a wrap????

[Kevin Stütz]

The slack out of the bar you can do with pulling your shoulderblades back and downwards to your spine.
once they are fixed the slack
is out if the bar and you just pull the weight off of this point.

If you are still progressing on the rdl don‘t even think about switching.

[Kevin Stütz]

Resting today with deep tissue massage. Which is highly needed after yesterday’s deadlift session.
Apetite is down a bit so I will just rest today and see how this goes on if the apetite isn‘t increasing I will just rest up a little more

[Kevin Stütz]

Yes completely depends on your recovery capabilities there is no one size fits all plan or programming. Even the best ones autoregulate nearly every session. If you just keep track in your logbook it will tell you where to go 🙂

[Kevin Stütz]

I think the best option is to give the body some rest from training if the appetite still stalls give yourself a good amount of days off from your daily calorie goals and eat just when you are hungry. Then apetite will increase rapidly back up again.
