Doesn't seem excessive to me. Do this and change your hand position often.

Partly true. I sense that the lower body position engages more of the butt muscles (gluts, etc.). It doesn't seem to give me more power from my quads, but assists the quads, yielding a balanced engagement of all the muscles involved. Some may disagree with me. I'm just stating what I've noticed or perceived.
