2 Oct 06 - Front squats - 285 x 3 x 3

Slowly but surely getting the hang of these. I use a front squat harness because of shoulder recon. surgery, and I use loose neoprene knee bands to keep old man knees happy

need to work on depth and forward lean...guest appearance by Coco the wondermutt

nice lifting with all the injuries :) forward lean isn't really an issue now, but if you ever decide to go all the way down, it'll come into play again. Do you ever try full front squats with lighter weight? What is the goal of doing front squats for you?

that was perfect

Depth on front squats are much easier to obtain then with backsquats. The fact that you aren't even making parallel is just wrong. Lower the weight, start from scratch going ATG and work your way back up.

Yeah lenchos right. how is the harness holding up? I work for getstrength so if you have any problems just let me know.

I see you working, SGT. Stay away from the forum for as long as you need to; it can be quite the distraction. The forward lean on this one was minimal, IMO. Depth is good, too. Maybe just a little lower, but you're pretty much there.
