I'd do low bar squats if I'd also be doing front squats with them. Doing front squats and high bar squats at the same time is kinda redundant.

Basically you can go with FS + LBBS (not the forum member) and some posterior chain high rep assistance work (2x12) - think RDL and hip thrust DONE CORRECTLY (glute dominant, pay attention to the pelvis being in neutral, especially when doing hip thrusts).

Otherwise, since you've lost so much weight, I believe your calves aren't an issue right now and therefore your only thing left to improve MORE would be the hip extensors.

Why don't you do this test?

You go up pretty good considering how slow you move... you're not using your arms at all on the jumps (ok, just very little).

To me it looks like you actually have good quad strength, it's more the posterior chain that you should work more on. When you plant you can really maintain the knee position... a thing I can't.

Alrighty. This isnt the best but....its what I have right now. I was texting the fiance about you guys doubting me (I hate being doubted, I think a man is his word/reputation :) I do understand you're doubts though) and she says 'babe, I think I have an old vid on my phone' and then texted me this vid which IveACT uploaded to youtube (first upload ever woohoo!). Anyway shes says the file info dates it to Aug 3 2012. :)

Not sure how to embed on phone sorry. :(

lol, quality ain't bad but i think you need to have a chat with your GF about framing shots.

 :lololol:

I just can't understand people like that... I mean why the heck would you "frame" it like she did there? It's just crazy.

Make sure the... "camera battery is not running low on those 45 inch jumps"

Shit that's a wall of text, sorry. For raptor's sake, i'll post a TLDR:
TLDR: For my muscle mass and strength, am I overachieving on the front squat or underachieving on the backsquat?


3263
No. If you use a dumbbell you will spontaneously combust.

3264
high bar or low bar?
