Thanks for the great answer as always. It seems Ben and others are advocates of continuous tension throughout the maximum range of motion where the majority of tension is on the muscle. This is pretty clear cut for most muscle groups to me, with the trickiest being legs.
In an instance of squats/hacks, the deeper one goes the more likely they are to probably recruit muscles outside the quad once they approach/pass parallel. Likely more hip, glute and hamstring involvement and less direct focus on the quad as you bottom out a squat or hack.
Thoughts?
