I already said I would I’m more than confident so post your best because when it’s done there’s not going to be a oh ill do them again etc… 1 shot … You better bring your A game zero excuses.
I didn’t build my legs standing around thinking about squatting… In all fairness I rarely back squat … That’s all I do is front squat…

i tell you what… YOU pick the weight and how many reps. we’ll see who has the higher front squat.
i made that video without even knowing this thread existed. My whole point was that it’s good to do them without the hands at times to reinforce good form. maybe front squatting in the 300’s is heavy for you, but it’s not for me. if your form is good the hands don’t do anything. it’s all about bar position and body position. i actually had a guy in the gym today that was attempting to front squat and he had the bar too far forward. i had him get the bar up against his throat and behind his delts and hand out in front. his form improved instantly. he came up and thanked me for the advice as he left.
i love competition… let’s do a set with 405…i’ll do mine with no hands and you can use your hands… let’s see who can do the most. are yuou up for some friendly competition since you seem to insist on calling me weak. no knee wraps of course. [/quote]
I normally don’t buy tickets to a train wreck, but I have to point out that meat issued the above challenge on page 2. Since then it has just been posturing and delaying by Swolle.
What delaying… He said 405… Im waiting for said video… it hasnt happened… period… the only thing thats happened are his buddies creating accounts and talking shit… Post me that video and I’ll 1 up it and considering the depth ive seen so far… I will be at least 4-6 inches deeper on every single rep… without wraps. Ive accepted long ago… Get after it.

Lol @ 4-6 inches deeper for more reps. And at him “delaying”…wasn’t the challenge issued yesterday or the day before? So where is YOUR video then? Rest assured, meat will have a vid up of him repping 405 soon. How about you?

Lol x2 @ 4-6 inches deeper. I look forward to meat continuing to post on this site.

I believe there has only been one account created during this thread. He did say 405 and told you to pick the day for both your videos to go up. I don’t see why you would need to wait for him, just rep out 405 and post it.

rest assured that none of my friends have created accounts to talk shit. I really wish Swolle could just step back for a second and actually think about WHY so many people are jumping on him right now. If anything comes out of this, I really hope he starts to see the error of his ways. I’ve read some of his posts and he has given out some sound advice. The difference is realizing when you make a mistake. just suck it up and move forward. I’ve made many many mistakes throughout my long life and if i’ve learned anything, it’s that different points of view are necessary when making an educated decision. One can’t live a life in extremes. Life is more grey. It’s more about finding the middle ground.

Well, he needs to wait on meat so that he has a number in mind, and then proceed to dig up the most obscure video on the interwebz of someone repping 1 more rep than that and posting it here as his own.
DUH!
How have I missed this thread so far?
Looking forward to the vids, hope that they both actually get posted.
Swole is coming across as a real tool.

it was actually Swolle’s response to your post below that prompted me to post and then the downward spiral.
"if you’re doing it right you dont need to hold the bar at all.
I got this tip from H4M and occasionally do front squats with my arms straight out in front of me.
Use straps like the above post shows and work on your wrist flexibility."
Swolle’s response to you-
"as for not holding the bar… yeah with light wieght that idea has legitimacy but when you start putting some working weight on that biotch… Good luck with the not holding the bar. Good way to F*&k yourself up in a hurry. Not a recommended practice. And for anoyone who would argue that … Your not putting enough weight on the bar… "
after this…it just became him insulting me.
^^i saw that… I guess this whole thing was my fault then lol.
I remember seeing Swolle post before and he didn’t come across like he does in this thread. I have a hard time believing that this is legit. Maybe he’s trolling (really seems like it cause who would be that big of an a-hole for no real reason?) or someone got his log on and is trolling with that account?
I’m not sure but it really all seems strange.

i thought you made a great point and i use hands free front squats all the time and so does H4M. i was just trying to show him that there is a valid reason for using them.
something that struck me strange…how do you hurt yourself front squatting? i feel like that of all the squat variations it is the safest. if you get in trouble, you just dump it forward.

Yeah. This has taken a turn for the surreal.
Well whoever is using the swolle account now is a fucking bitch with no respect. Meat has posted video after video and we haven’t gotten shit from swolle yet. I’m waiting for him to find a fake video on the internet and pass it off as himself. That’s probably what’s taking him so long.
On a side note you’re the fucking man meat. You’re vids and posts have inspired me and many other members since I joined the forums. This spineless worm isn’t even worth your time.

Yeah the no hands tip helped me quite a bit whn starting out front squatting. It’s useful for sure.
The only way I could see yourself really getting hurt front squatting is if you were in the bottom position and lost the bar forward onto your thighs or knees… But you’d have to e squatting outside of the cage for that or had the pins too low.

Meat is one of the most helpful and humble people that has “been there, done that.” This site would be worse off without him.

100% correct.
Most of the experienced helpful posters have either left or been banned.
Meat, Stu, H4M & Chris Colluci (sp?) are about all that’s left who post regularly and are sensible/levelheaded.
(no offense to someone I might have left off that list. Particularly in the PL section… Never really go over there)
It’d be a shame for MM to go but I think, based on the fact that Swolle semi boasted of FS’ing more than 365 and MM posting a 500lb FS vid, that he’ll be around for a while longer.
