How To Front Squat for Beginners (2024)
In this video I will go over how I teach my new athletes how to front squat, including where their hands and feet should be placed to maximize their lifting.
I will also briefly go over the differences between back and front squats, both have their place and are important for athletes to learn but have a few key differences that need to be understood if they are to be programmed properly.
Front squats are an important exercise for all of my athletes to learn as they develop lower body power and strength, upper back endurance and teach athletes how to be able to catch heavier clean variations.
If you are an athlete and haven't done front squats, it is never to late to learn and reap the rewards of this amazing exercise!
