Nothing beats having 420lbs on your back then you have to sink down into the hole and come up with it. One of the best feelings in the world. . . many people tend to disagree

Never had that much on my back... I had in the mid 300's... back in 1998 before I injured my shoulder... my squats gain weight fast... I just hope this method can be as effective as with the bar on the back of my shoulders
That safety bar looks cool. I've seen bars with a similar indentation in them... with an indentation near the center of the bar... so if I wanted to hold the bar, my hands would be further forward... I think that would allow me to put the weight on my back.
But for now, front squats will do... I look forward to be doing 300+ in a few weeks...

Niche said:Have you ever thought about using Vice Grips to aid you in doing squats? Just buy a pair of large vice grips and clamp them down onto the bar. Hopefully they would be able to extend your grip out into your ROM.

Interesting first post for a great philosopher...
That is a very interesting idea... I could hook them up to the bar and then use them to hold onto the bar with.... I wonder how 24/7 fitness would feel about all that noise... hehe, or if I lost a grip on one of the vices... or worse yet, if one came loose!
But still, it is a great suggestion!
