Nelmsjer's 2006 Journal

Yeah, I see what you mean on the elbows up part. I catch the bar in the bottom with my elbows already up, but I will concentrate on making it even faster.

What's interesting is that when I DO catch it with my pinky in the right position, my front squat from the bottom is slower and more difficult. When I catch it and my pinky slips off, for SOME reason I am in a better position, and I just stand right up. Annoying as heck. It's not even an issue of "oh...my pinky is off, this is going to be hard to stand up". It's "wow, that was easy. (looking over) Crap, my pinky is off." or "gosh, that was slow...but it's in my hands" Ridiculous.

More practice...more flexibility...and more pop after the front squat for a regrab if it is absolutely required.

Hey, all...exceptionally busy again. I'll hopefully post up the workouts in the next few days. I am finally "enjoying" the higher reps and not feeling like I'm going to die. It's not as fun as 5x5, but it's not quite as miserable.

Take care...be back soon!
