Front squats - three ways to hold the bar

Front squats! Beginners, you can start out on the Smith machine, then move to the bar. I go over three ways to hold the bar. For each method, remember to:
Keep the elbows up
Rest the bar on the "divot" of your delt and against the clavicle
Chest up, and keep the knees behind the toes
Start with light weight, or just body weight :)

Erin thank you so much! I kill my wrists when doing front squats even with no weight on the bar. I tried the crossed arms but perhaps too much on my shoulders/delts. I got bruised up and pretty tender after that. The 3rd step I'll have to try.
