Front squat is my favorite. Try to learn it. Better than regular squat!

How much weight you use for the Front squat of your regular training?

How much weight you use for the Front squat of your regular training?

Well, nowadays I don't use big weights during my leg training...but when I used them I did front squats with 350 lbs like it was nothing...and my best was 2x485 deep...but it was very-very heavy... 

[Mrdibbs]

If it aint full, it aint right.

Wow, Thats quite strong. No wonder. You have a great pair of wheels

Dont get me wrong. My question is not a typical fan question.
Just I want to know how much weight is sufficient for your training.

For example, if you ask me about Pacos Back squat.
He is capable of doing 300kg X10 with good depth.
But, He dont do it more than 200kg for training. Cus under 200kg is sufficient for him.
My best is 220kg X 6. But as you see me in the video, I dont do more than 150kg.


So how much weight do you use for your front squat right now?

Forget about Platz.
The guy was born to squat.

Very true sir, yet the oly squat is highly superior than the ''legit bb squat''.

Guys like wolf and heath could do quarter reps with 100lbs and still gain in mass though  .

Only one thing i dont like his squat is the negative movement. Its too fast!!

So how much weight do you use for your front squat right now?

Right now I didn't start yet training hard and heavy after my contest season...especially for legs which is my strong point. So for legs now I just use machines and some stiff leg deadlift, maybe some walking lunges sometimes.

But I think I won't use more than 180 kg (about 400 lbs) for front squats in the offseason.


Here is one of the episode of the Hungarian Bodybuilding TV show...it started with my leg training...front squats, leg press ect...

I was so angry because we had a limited time (30 min) for the show...and I did that 2x285 front squat...my all time best... Anyway the director had no idea about how big thing that was...and the time was limited, so there was just one rep in the TV about that set...   Fuck.

But maybe it's still interesting for a few users:

You are damn strong guy. 180kg front squat is really amazing.
How much is your off-season weight?

This year I started to diet at 226 and I was 198-200 onstage.

After the contests I started to eat.. ..I ended at 235...

Now, 6 weeks after my contests I'm 229.

Of course i know you are one of the favourite under 202 category pro.
 Anyway, around 100kg off season bodyweight and training with 180kg FRONT squat is quite amazing.

You are a hard trainee. Respect.

hhahahaha

I struggle for it 15 reps. Many getbigers laugh at me.
I saw Jay does 4 plates each. I saw Paco strived for 20reps of 4plates each.
Branch Warren also show same kind of strength.

In reality, I rarely witness people doing 3plates each of bbing style squat.
So Getbigers are monsters?

the fact that you actually squat says alot for you. Most people in gyms dont want to do barbell squats because its the most difficult and painful exercise when done correctly. 

The fact that you can do 315 for 15 attests to your strength.  315 for 15 is very good.  Im guessing your max is around 405-450, when is very good.
