Hi Deb:O)
Not sure I can describe a sissy squat real good but it's basically a squat done while holding onto a support like a railing or piece of equipment framing that's solid. This allows you to really lean back into the movement. The hands aren't allowed to pull you up though;-). If you don't have Muscle and Fitness Hers for this month...check it out. They use this exercise in their perfect form article. I used the position that Susie Curry demonstrates. I was able to crank out 100 after doing my regular routine this morning, but only because I was inspired by checking here(gotta love the motivation!) this morning and posting to Andrea. I did the first 50 together, took a short break and then did two more sets of 25...both were tough, especially that last 5. I like them best at the end of the workout...one of my workout email buddies(Hello Tammy C;-)) gave me the heads up about them. I like them with this routine I'm doing. I start off with the low rep PS into the higher rep CTX and then work right down into the burn of no weight. They say the sissy squats are shapers..we'll see;-)...off to work.
