An important tip he didn't mention is: Fill your lungs with air and brace your abs to avoid arching of your back.

Awesome stuff, I consider myself quite a strong squatter but as soon as it comes to front squat I'm a total beginner.

4:24 dude said “goood” to his own rep lmao

The quietest gym ever, love it.

He looks like a hot and young version of Hopper from Stranger Things

Id like a tutorial on how to grow a beard like that im sick of people mistaking me for a young child

How to perform the FRONT SQUAT! Look for lots more single exercise tutorials, all featured in our BULKING BOOK which releases JANUARY 30th! Hope you enjoy. STAY BUFF! -Hudson

This tutorial covers everything concerning front squats, most people have already done squats before they attempt front squats as a progression. Breathing correctly is the same as back squats so that's why he doesn't mention it but otherwise everything you need to know about front squats is here. Excellent tutorial. This guy is awesome.

The Buff Dudes are how I started my weightlifting journey, and I've never looked back. Thank you so much for all the great advice, fun videos, and humor! Keep it up and stay buff!

Call me crazy but I train with both the back and front squats. I love the results. My quads are starting to get more vascular and veiny. I'll be 60 this September and I still train heavy in the squat. Even in the front squat. I am just surprised that the bar in your throat isn't mentioned. In the front squat it makes the move challenging being in your throat. But I still train with the front squat. I'm not going to punk out because of a little discomfort.

For the life of me, I can't wrap my hands around the bar like that

this one of the videos I requested for y'all to do thanks. was a great help I don't have the mobility in my wrist so I use the cross way. y'all are doing great keep it up

Thank you Bryce Harper!

that elbows up propulsion is exactly what i needed to learn.. great tip man!

“Get some 45s here nothing to crazy” 😂😂

Awesome tutorial! I recently added front squats back into my routine and had been struggling with form! This really helped.

I subluxed my shoulder with back squats a week ago. Now that I can slowly start training again, I'll try the front squats. Great video!

This video is perfect! Thank you Buff Dudes.

kudos on making this. Super hard to talk and do anything that systemically demanding, even if it wasn't heavy weight. Very well done!

Been working up to hang cleans and this is the critical move before one even attempts them seriously. Hugely helpful, thank you!

loving this series please do more

Been wanting to try this. Looks like it will challenge your balance and ankle flexibility as well. Thanks dude

Thank you. Very helpful for a 40 something yr old newbie to front squat!!!

I can't thank you enough for putting this video up explaining and performing the correct way to do front squats i really appreciate the time and effort that was put into this I'm definitely going to do it the perfect way you did my bro you was absolutely awesome keep up the great work !!💪💪😀👍👍👏👏👏👏👏

A huge tip that helped me was to only grab the bar with 2 fingers because I didnt have the wrist/ hand mobility to comfortably grab the bar with all 4 fingers

awesome video, I'm doing home workouts, but in the gym, the front squats were my favorite exercise

Back to the roots guys. I love it

It took me time to get my wrists used to it, but it really is worth the trouble, they do hit the quads much better, especially if your gym has no fancy machines for legs, this is the only free weight exercise that can give you that vertical angle needed to truly hit the quads. Training only with regular squats only ends up giving you that overgrown ass that just doesnt look good if the quads are lacking... also heel raised are a good option to change the angle if the back so to put more strain on the quads

Great video. Super informative and to the point.

love these how videos. Thanks guys!

Great video dudes!!! Finally can COMFORTABLY perform front squats!!!

My legs feels so good since i started doing this excercise a month ago. Good video

thanks for this--tomorrow i start front squats to supplement my regular squats--hopefully with nice gains

Excellent instruction. Very helpful. Thank you.

Thanks for your help dude! Great help!

Great video thanks again for your time and help 🏋️

Good tutorial!! Will share it right away on Facebook!

Thank you buff dudes!

that woman in the background is gonna break her neck at 2:42

Thank you sir that was all I needed 🙏

Thank you for this very informative video x

Thank you for this tutorial!

First time I understand how to perform this exercise! 👏

front squats are solid for building your legs and hitting the quads more as well. but know to that if you cant cup your hands under the bar because you don't have the flexibility in your wrists? then you can also tie straps to the bar and hold those OR you can put the bear across your chest and hold it in place by crossing your arms. doing this also takes some of the load off your back as well.

Like it. Simple, no fancy gimicks. But spot on!

Tried this, shoulder suddenly starts hurting, immediately abort the squat 😂 i was using horrible form (shoulder press form) while squatting. Now im here and now i know how 👍

If you struggle to get into the clean position and don’t like the cross position, try putting straps on the bar and wrap your hands around the straps and go into the clean position but with hands toward the top of your head if that makes sense. Athlean X has a video explaining it called front squat mobility problems fixed

Thx buff dudes

Great lesson. Thanks

Thanks for this dudes.

Thanks for Sharing this 🙏

Very helpful, thanks a lot!

That a best workout video

Very helpful !! Thank you

Very well explained keep it up!

“Nothing too crazy” …. *proceeds to put 45s

Sick man thank u very much!!

Tried them, I went really light 25’s just to get a feel for it. My quads felt like they were on fire. Thank you!

Love doing these. I cannot do the regular barbell squats due to scoliosis (curvature of the spine near the neck).

I just got done checking my wrist mobility just before I came to your page.

Good stuff !!!!!!

love it thanks!

awesome class

Super helpful! Thank you :)

If you're not comfortable with the Clean position for holding the bar, use a pair of wrist straps on the bar (put the bar inside of the straps, like you would your wrists). Position them around or just inside your shoulder width, cinch them shut and pull the tail of the strap upwards. Grab the base of the tail of the straps with your fists, and this will go a long way in helping you keep your elbows high and a vertical posture. It made such a huge, immediate impact on my front squat that I went from struggling to hold form (with crossed arms) to adding 40lbs. Now I'm not saying this will make you squat more weight, but if the weakest link is the vertical torso part of the form, this can help alleviate that and potentially allow you to squat more.

perfect. Thank you so much

Great tutorial

Very helpful, thanks

Can also try the Stingray Front Squat device. Makes all the difference

Thanks buff Jim Halpert

Ty

Ahh i was doing a narrower stance, will def try this next time, i do like front squats, seems to me that i get injured far less than on back squats

Thank you!

Great video

Thanks dudes!

That was very helpful! Thank you for showing me how to do this properly!

Thank you... It was helpfull

Good vid bro

Hey guys, just wanna say a massive thank you. I had been front squatting wrong for years and had knee pain. I tried a wider stance and squatting in forwards like you showed in the video, and boom - no more knee pain, PLUS it didn't feel fucking awkward! Thanks so much

Amazing

thanks for the video

Hi how do you program the bench press in a barbell complex workouts thanks for your time and help this video is very helpful to me thanks🏋️

I attach two deadlift straps to the bar...helps support the weight and takes the strain off the wrists....

This exercises feels like a final boss on nSuns

My ass is getting too big from regular rear loaded squats. Hopefully front squats will balance the look.

Informative thanks for sharing

If they ever make a spin off Netflix series about the sheriff from stranger things when he was younger this guys is the dude for the part.

Thanks. I have extreme limitted mobility in my shoulders and can no longer reach the bar for back squats. I sort of instinctively knew that with front squats there'd be difficulty keeping the bar from rolling forward but I think what to watch for and do was pretty well covered. I'll give it a try. Thumbs up.

awesome single one shot!
