Jack Attacking his goat. From his face it looks like the goat is fighting back.

Fight those knees out little buddy

A Good set up: Elbows up, weight off the hands and on the shoulders, head in a neutral position. The weight is just a little bit on her toes.

Weight is still on the toes and she is starting to fall forward because of it. Pretty common with front squats.

Nice High elbows. Good strong core. You can't see her heels but that is where the weight is centered. I can tell b/c she is pushing her hips back not bringing her chest forward.

Around Set 3 Mark said, "Hey if I get my elbows up and let the weight rest on my shoulders it's a lot easier." Yep. I might have mentioned that earlier.

Mark looking good. In another month he's going to have awesome depth.

Camilo tried to hang out at the bottom a couple of times.  What up with that? After Jack's punishment to everyone's shoulders yesterday I thought the front rack position would be a good way to stretch them out. It looks like Camilo needed that stretch.

I'm taking that big breath I keep telling you about.

Rebe thought this was so funny she wanted me to do it again. I really wasn't shooting for the humor angle honey.
