Front squat was much better this time. Tried the clean grip and my wrists won’t allow it, the cross over is better as long as I set it up before unracking, I can’t do the zombie arms. The bar does rest heavily on my arms though.
Something happened on Monday…I went to the gym a 2nd time, the local one this time and did 30mins on the crosstrainer, a few leg raises, reverse pull ups using smith machine bar (had it too low so position wasn’t right).
Unless you have a specific medical condition or injury history that is causing this, I highly recommend overcoming this particular obstacle, because it is a thing that can be fixed. stretching every day, and particularly directly prior to front squatting, will likely fix the issue. That’s how I did it. You can perform a forearm/wrist stretch by placing your palm flat against the wall, finger tips up, and pushing against the wall, and also with your wrist rotated around so your fingertips go down. If this doesn’t make sense I can find a video explaining it properly. I promise you, addressing mobility issues directly, and sooner rather than later, is the best thing you can do for yourself.
