Front squats are tough to get used to. There's a few different grips, find one that works and you'll get the hang of it.

Glad the leg strength is coming on. Sessions look good. It's worth trying to persevere with the front squats and finding the right grip/position to make them work for you!

keep at the front squats, it might take a while, but once you get used to them it'll make a world of difference in your quads

i dont think im gonna do the show in march, just not enough time to prepare learned about it to late. everyone i talk to think im not going to make it, and i dont want to be up there fat and hitting horrible poses, so i think im just going to still diet down to about 9% or so and try and stay about 9-10 year around, clean bulk, and maybe try next year. just not ready im realizing now.

I like the squats, are you aiming to progress by adding weight or doing more sets (5x3 reps)?

thanks guys

and tim im trying to progress with weight. normally i do 3 heavy sets and once i can get my third set of those for 5 i go up again. basically i want to make sure i will be able to handle adding more weight. last time i just kept adding weight every week and my only good set was the first, but i kept adding, and i eventually started hurting my joints. i want to make sure i dont push the weight increase too fast and risk injury, especially on squats. deadlifts i normally do a 1RM increase and do singles for that and keep increasing the weight, since i dont have many joint pains increasing with that. its just my knees hurt sometimes when i overwork them with too much weight.
