    The answer here for an actual machine/tower solution is to use the cable set on the "floor" setting and hold the bar in your arms like a front squat- so that way you're squatting UP with the weight- not pulling it down.

    This only works if you have an adjustable cable.

    If not- get creative with the weights.
    Bulgarian split squats
    Romanian DL/Stiff leg DL (not squats I know- but leg work)
    Pistol squats
    Shrimp squats
