u guys and gals can have my dose... of course the fascists will demand everyone take it. uuumm no thanks and fk off.

 

Front squats would be so easy if you didn’t have to maintain balance.

 

I did dumbbell squats yesterday and my hamstrings are pretty sore today. I need to get my butt moving more. This sedentary job is not good for me

 

Living would be so easy if you didn't have to maintain balance.

 

I never had issues with balance but after like 7 reps I had trouble breathing because of the weight on my clavicles. I love/hate front squats.

 

Or hold the bar in front of you lol. Keeping my elbows up is the hardest part

 

2 continuous miles this morning. Makin progress!

 

I gave up on that too. Cross your arms in front of you and rest the bar in the nook created by your front delts and clavicle...

 

SSB can suck my dick. Balance and everything about it feels so off compared to high bar for me.

 

Probably cause you don’t have enough plates on it.

 

It’s gets tricky when you start adding weight. That’s how I’ve always done it but after 315lbs, the weight and balance becomes.... difficult. Atleast that’s where I’m at.

 

Probably.

 

But for real fuck that thing. Sucks whenever your elbows hit your knees and shit too. How’s recovery going?

 

Slow. Can't so anything but squat and tricep/bicep lol still competing in January tho so we'll see what happens.

 

Can you atleast hit all the weights for comp?

 

Deadlifts will be pushing it but I can hit everything else weight wise.

 

That's fair, I never got over 405 on front squats, but if you started to lift real weight I can see that, though again, it was less about balance and more about being able to breathe in my experience.

 

You front squatted 405? Fucking gnarly.

 

Atleast you can relax a little on that side of things then.

 

HW class is fuckin stacked this year too. Bout 20 guys 10 of which are 330+ and strong as fuck. I'm not going into it looking to win anyway. Just gonna have fun.
