[QUOTE="bbbom, post: 717540, member: 16301"] As with any weightlifting, if you don't use proper form you can most certainly hurt yourself. I've been doing sissy squats for over 15 years and have NEVER had a problem with my knees or my lowerback due to the movement. But I did take the time to work with a trainer and learn good form many years ago. As with any lifting, if it hurts you are either not doing it correctly and need to stop and learn the proper form OR you may have a physical condition that prevents you from doing the movement. I did suggest to try it without weights because it is a more difficult movement to perform. It won't strain your knees or your lower back but you have to keep the natural curve of your lower back stable. The rule of not letting your knees go in front of your toes applies to regular squats and even then, if you do DEEP squats you will find your knees get pretty close to the threshold there. I suggest you try the sissy squat with good form before you make a blanket statement like above. But, if you don't want to then don't. I will keep them as part of my training and live happily ever after. :yeehaw: [/QUOTE]
