It's been a bit over a month since I went for a max Front Squat, Well today was Front Squat Day at my CrossFit gym and I could not remember what my best to date front squat was so I just did what felt good, our work up to max was based on a 3-2-1-1-1. So in other words we started out lighter and did three reps, then upped the weight and did 2 reps, then added some more for a single rep and then we added weight two more times to hopefully get to a max single Front Squat.

I ended up maxing out today at 245 pounds which after I checked back against my last personal front squat workout journal entry was 30 pounds over! Not bad improvements. I have been doing back squats and dead lifts which will for sure improve my overall front squat strength.
