When compared to a traditional squat, the knee extension machine can place even more stress on the patellar tendon, knee ligaments (ACL), and cartilage behind the patella.

However, Funato et al. (2008) compared the isokinetic concentric and eccentric knee extension and flexion torques between elite senior and college Olympic weightlifters.

Comparing different squat variations, Swinton et al. (2012) reported that peak knee extension moment arm lengths were greatest in the order box > traditional > powerlifting squat variations.

In agreement, Reid et al. (2011) compared eccentric plantar flexion with the knee fully extended and during a flexed position and reported superior gastrocnemius muscle activity during plantar flexion with full knee extension and no difference in soleus muscle activity.

Comparing the back squat with knee extensions, Signorile et al. (1994) found that muscle activity was greater during back squats than during knee extensions but Andersen et al. (2006) found the opposite results and Escamilla et al. (1998) found that muscle activity differences depended upon knee angle.

However, noting the significant gain in hip extension in the intervention group from prelunge to postlunge in the second session and comparing them to the results reported by Macdonald et al. (6) of immediate gains in knee flexion angle post foam rolling, it is reasonable to conclude that the effects of foam rolling are immediate, even in a dynamic movement, but do not remain for longer bouts of time.

Yamashita (1988) compared hamstrings EMG amplitude during isolated hip extension and isolated knee extension movements performed with 20 % of the MVIC moment to hamstrings EMG amplitude with a combined hip and knee extension movement using the same hip and knee extension moments.

Compare the bench press (shoulders and elbow joints) versus the dumbbell fly (elbows only), or the squat (ankles, knees, hips) versus the leg extension (knees only).

Bryanton et al. (2011) found that as relative load increased from 50 % of 1RM to 90 % of 1RM, the ratio of net hip extension moment to net knee extension moment increased from 1.1 times to 1.5 times, while Flanagan & Salem (2007) also observed a greater increase in net hip extension compared to net knee extension moment, with increasing load.

Training to increase the strength and size of the gluteus maximus may be better performed with movements that limit knee extension (e.g. hip thrusts and back extensions) compared to with movements that involve substantial knee extension (squats and step ups).

This study tested muscle activation during maximum voluntary contractions of hip extension, in different hip flexion joint angles while the knee was flexed, and found that gluteus maximus EMG amplitude was reduced by a third when the hip was flexed, compared to when it was fully extended.

This seat has significantly reduced leg room due to the angle of the row compared to the row in front and the presence of an extension of the arm - rest from the row in front, which protrudes at knee level into the seating area.
