    Did the grip and stance feel better on front squats?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭JJayoo


    Hard to tell today, all I had eaten in 10 hours was 100g of cheese and then the deadlifts before hand. Will give them a proper whack on Sunday when back in shed HQ

    I did get a DB curl pb........that's a thing right?

    Well...looks like you found your back-squatting mojo.

    I am trying to rebuild my relationship with back squats, it will take a while but I think we will make it

    Bring yourself out for dinner. Chocolates.

    Before you know it, you'll have a big weight on your back and be coming out steadily out of the hole.

    So to speak.

    There's probably an (in)appropriate sloth meme...

    How'd the front squat setup feel?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,561 ✭✭✭JJayoo


    Everything feels decent although I always place my left foot a few inches ahead of my right, just feels more comfortable. I also suck at reading my depth so I always just go as low as physically possible, onward and upward.
