Any tips on improving front rack position for front squats?

I do the method of crossing my arms and then just raise my chest area up high. Gave up trying to it the other way because I couldn’t get my elbows high enough.

I don't feel as secure doing the crossed arms.

I can't do the bent wrist way of front squatting so I have to use cross arms. It's more comfortable for me.

And if you're making em on giphy it should automatically make em the right size.

Elbows too low?

 

[DonRafa]

hands are too narrow. they should be outside of your shoulders. that should help get your elbows up a bit too


might help you get a fuller grip on the bar which will activate you’re lats

other than that great job!

Did you lock your knees out on these?

If so, don’t do that.

Also how’d you make this?

 

[DonRafa]

yeah, you wanna start with you knees unlocked and externally rotated and quads flexed

Ezgif is a site where you can convert videos to gifs aNYone

It’s like making a citation for a paper, it does all the work for you and creates it.

My phone has a native GIF Capture. I just resized for NT. So I shouldn't stand straight up?

Unlocked as in a slight bend?

Never heard this before

I know he says no pause but isn't he taking a pause between each rep.

Think he's referring to pause at the bottom of each rep

Looks like he’s gonna fall back every time he comes up.

Nice setup kind of reminds me a little of the old gyms back during the Pumping Iron days.

How much does your bar weight? Think dudes said his was 70lbs.
