Can you guys tell me how the two hit your bodies differently? I think all that really gets lost is fronts of quads when your not doing full deads.
I'm talking about taking the bar from about two inches below the knee cap verses taking the bar from the floor.
When your doing hacks your still hitting glutes and hams and the rest of the back muscles. But when your taking the bar from the floor the angle of the initial lift will hit your lower lats and mid back much better I.M.O.
How about some thoughts on this?
Question: If your doing squats, is it necessary to do full deads or can you do just racks instead?
