    Not familiar with this particular model, but can you place a scale under your feet when you are standing in the hack squat position and then subtract your weight from the total?

    Why didn't it work?

    1) Did you weigh yourself on the hack squat without the sled on your shoulders and then with it on your shoulders? (may require someone to help - hold the sled off of your shoulders)

    or, 2) Did you just weigh yourself on the hack squat with the sled and try to subtract your weight.

    I would assume that number 2 won't work because a portion of your weight would be exerted against the machine where your back is rather than all of it being at your feet.

    Hopefully this makes sense.
