This was another great session. Thanks CFHQ! A properly positioned rack requires good wrist, elbow, and shoulder flexibility. Front squats can become dicey fast with flexibility issues. Add burpee's and pull-ups and we're cooking with GAS!

Great session everyone. We had some super fast times. Outstanding! Great intensity that is highly contagious and benefits everyone. Thanks for the hard work on a summer preview for what's to come.

While more functional than its' cousins, the Front squat can expose flexibility issues with not just the rack, but the hips and knees as well. Tight hams? Good luck getting into the hole without loss of spinal stabilization. Get a little bit of mobility training every day.

We had several puppies working on Front squats, and airsquats. Great job. You know who you are. Be patient and consistent, and do your homework. Great to see Carolyn back, and DeJuan- your trip starts here. Buy the ticket and take the ride.
