What are your guys frontsquats?

[maxiscool]

Compared to your backsquat. Right now im frontsquating instead of backsquating for various reasons and I noticed I cant do crap for front squat.

Yeah I knew it! Whew thats good I thought I got alot weaker but I guess front squat is just alot harder.

Front squats isolate the quads a lot more than deep back squats.

[ddegroff]

Yeah that's normal.

[Natetaco]

squat:300x5
front squat:225x5

My max front squat is about 80% of my back squat and that number is rising.

But then again, I don't back squat any more and I front squat 2-3 times a week.

[maxiscool]

Yeah I frontsquat because I workout at my house and I dont have a squat rack. But I can raise the bars on the bench so I can just take it off and do front squats instead. Its also good because if you fail you could just push the weight off you plus you dont have to as heavy weights as backsquat.


Edit:

By the way tofer do you have any new pics? I saw your 5 month ones and thats pretty impressive. You must be huge by now.

[Tofer]

Thanks man. I don't have any recent pics, but I definitely will post a new set at some point.

Once you get your mechanics down on front squat it will start to take off.

Nice to see you squatting 415 again, I remember you posting in your journal about that.

For me, back squat is 315 and front squat is 250 maybe.

Yeah, I cut all wrong and lost strength. I was 232 when I was squating 415 back in Jan. Now I am 210 and back on track.

[getfit]

135 here

[Built]

Heaviest I've front squatted for a 5-rep set was 165 a little earlier in my cut.

Heaviest I've back squatted for a triple was 185, but that was a few years ago.

Just tested these last night.
255 front, 315 back. Had a little left in the tank for both, but both of these were PRs, so I held it there.
