Glad it helped, there are some more similar videos on the pipe work so hope they help too. Let me know if there’s anything specifically you’d like to see
Guess I have to stop wimping out of front squats! Seriously though great informative video, I’d love to see a series with you and Steve doing home-gym alternatives for different machines.

Haha yeah… I honestly hated them at first, but weirdly grew to like them and I think it fixed a lot of my issues with back squats! There are more to come hope they help
undiscovered treasure, v helpful.
What about a vertical leg press machine? They are one of the cheapest machines I could find for home, and also don't seem to take up that much space.

I know people that love them and yeah makes sense for the money and space saving design- but heard others say it feels awkward and some even say they get pain (but it’s not likely from the machine but some other underlying issue) It’s not on this list as it’s technically still a leg press (not an alternative)
Im subscribed with notifications turned on, why am i only seeing this 11 days after its release. this makes me sad. Great content as always. not a fan of weight lifting shoes but thats just a preference. My lower back is also in bits so glad ive got something to work on now. Thanks
