Coach Focus: The purpose of this piece today is front squatting a moderately heavy load under fatigue. Coaches should remind athletes that positioning is king when it comes to the front squat, poor posture = unsafe and more difficult front squats. To improve positions, coaches should encourage athletes to wider their grip, keep a full grip around the bar, and focus the shelf the bar sits on when squatting. Poor mechanics = less safe and harder.
