That would be nuts.

Craig, really thought you had a second one in there. Great work though.

Craig, I am VERY IMPRESSED. That was poetry in motion! I have no doubt there is a second rep in there.

What is it about front squats (esp ATG) that are just so beautiful?!!! (maybe it was Craig's bottom on that one.... :lol: )

You have inspired me to try and find a way with the wonky arm and no safety squat bar to do some free front squats.

Very very very nice...and I look forward to the competition!!! :D

video it if you feel strong today, that would be 1.75bw for 3 rep so that would kinda rule you out of this contest. Still I'm always up for a challenge if you can think of one.

Great work! I should try that grip for front squats instead of cross armed. Really nice.

^^ you should be fine with that grip since you do Cleans. Although I do know some people still don't get their elbows up when catching the bar. This proper grip will add a few kgs to your PB.

I get the elbows fairly high so maybe should give it a go. I can do a good 5x110kg niec and deep with cross armed grip... I don't have 140kg in me though, back squats no probs, but not front! lol! He made it look easy and at nearly 100kg the ratio would look crap :p

Look on the bright side I can't even do body weight front squats, let alone have a nice ratio like that! :D

Sigh...I want to try but without someone to train with I am a little too nervous to really try the free squats, esp with the wonky arm making grip difficult.

Nice lifting


negs where fast, but I'm sure you'll slow them down for the 150 and 160 vids to come ;)

why do you need a spot on front squat, just ditch the weight if your going to fail............. so thats just pure bum fun :D


When my phone gets mended I'll put up my progess and maybe a power clean from the hang vid
