My back squat pr is 365 for 5 reps but I can’t even reach 3 plate front squat. How do I improve my core strength that doesn’t tip me over with heavy front squat?
i do agree that high bar back squat is good. but something about hte front squat feels amazing. i love shoving my neck against the bar when i go to place it and almost choking myself
No one who says this ever has a good front squat. You need to have a good back squat to get a good front squat. Even most olympic weightlifters can't get away with only front squatting. And the few people that do, like Ilya, are phenoms + on tons of gear.
what i and you personally lift is irrelevant to the question of whether you need back squats for a good front squat, and the answer is, mechanically speaking, you do not.

I’m in the exact same boat. I’ve always been dogshit at front squats but my quads are much stronger than my hamstrings.
Multiple squat variations on different days > any single exercise
Zercher squat > all others
>front squat
Sorry but front squats hurt my wrists.

i'd like to shove my bar against her neck if you know what i'm saying
what did anon mean by this
he's a gay male friend that wants to cheat on his boyfriend
also i like sort of bouncing the bar on my delts at the top of each rep.
helps my posture as well.
backs squat would always feel weird
>cheat on him
what did she mean by this?
she's telling her gay male friends to cheat on their boyfriends
>bounces the bar on delts
When I do this I get massive bruises because I actually have weight on the bar.
maybe ur just a fag
I'd hit her back squat if you catch my drift
