If something hurts

Not medical advice. Sharp pain, numbness or swelling needs someone qualified to look at it.

Each swap below spares one joint.

Supported back, adjustable depth.
Knee-only movement; the hip barely moves.

When it stalls, these usually help

Direct work for your glutes, which this lift also depends on.
Direct work for your hamstrings, which this lift also depends on.

How Swolver coaches it

This lift is read from your own sessions. When it goes flat for four weeks, Swolver names the likely cause in plain words, such as weekly sets that dropped, and the one change to make. The rules are all on the method page.
