Front Squats with Safety squat Bar 425x6

[TheKenBanks]

I experimented with this version of the front squat tonight, with an empty safety bar. It's PERFECTLY comfortable. My question for you is do you find it defeats the purpose of doing front squats in the first place, in that by flipping the SSB around, too much of the weight winds up being "backloaded"? Does it still "feel" like a front squat when you do it?

@TheKenBanks I'm glad you liked it! It sure does still feel like a front squat. Youre able to get nice and deep and the load is certainyl carried by the quads. Load that bar up and give it a whirl :)

@keck47 Thanks a bunch for the reply. I've been doing them for a couple weeks now, as my first assistance exercise after regular squats. And yes, you are right, they DESTROY my quads (in the good way, of course). Thank you very much for posting the video!
