Default Front Squats!

They are awesome. I'm loving them.
Back squats lost some of its allure to me, but front squats....wow.

Even though I'm trying to move up on the weights, I'm really liking them.
I can really feel it work my core which is an added plus.

My favorite lift are deadlifts, but front squats are making a quick move on them.

Anyways, this post has no point except for how awesome front squats are.

Signing out!

I hated front squats the first few times I tried them. Now, when I want to shock my quads,I call on the fronts. Guess what, next week there is gonna be a whole lotta quad shocking going on.

I like em! Great lift for core/ab work too, but dont use a belt while doing them, I got the tip to use it to improve my deadlift. Sounds resonable
