leg extensions (3x12) 140, 170, 190ibs
front squat (10,8,5) 185, 225, 255
leg press on sled (10,10,9,10) 450, 630, 810, 630
hacks (12,12,10) 180,230, 270

lying leg curls [single led] (10,10,9) 40, 50, 60ibs
standing leg curls (10,10,12,11) 25,30,35,30


front squats were interesing. They felt great as far as my quads are concerned. But, if the bar wasnt choking me then it was slowly rolling down my shoulders. I think I just went to heavy for my first time doing them. Today was supposed to be reps of 8-10 in front squat. 225 wasn't bad so I really thought 255 would be just about right. Any suggestions on bar placement would be greatly appreciated...

yeah .. the bar is rolling once ur going heavy .. but i think chalk is the solution .. spread some chulks on ur shoulder and on the bar .. probably will stick on ur shoulder .. but haven't u noticed the differences between it and the normal squat bro :) ?

Hey bro,

when i do fronts i keep my elbows pointed up so the bar rests ontop of my front deltoid. thats the best i can offer. Keep those elbows up when u go down in the squat postition bc thats when theyll drop down causing the bar to slide down your arms.

Diesel .. take a look over this thread :
Front squat ?

[Diesel]

q80 - there was a big difference I noticed with front squats verse back. i felt it in my quads a lot more.

bigben - im guessing that was the problem. I think when the bar was choking me I had it too far back and I would then move my elbows down but that would cause the bar to roll. ill have to keep an eye on that next time.
