Front to
Back to Wide Squats - A Leverage Drop-Set For the Lower
Body
This technique is basically
a "variation drop set", though you could also call
it a giant set (3 or more exercises in a row with no rest).
You're going to be doing 3 different types of squats, using
the different leverages of each variation as the drop instead
of reducing weight.
It's a pretty straightforward
concept once you see it in action.
1. Start with Front Squats -
do as many reps as you can - use a weight you can get 8 to
10 reps with. This is the toughest variation.
2. Rerack the bar and go directly
to back squats with a fairly narrow to medium width foot placement
with the same weight. Do as many reps as you can.
3. Finally, set your feet out
wide and do as many more reps as you can - no need to rerack
the bar here - just go right into it. This is the position
where you will be strongest at.
By the time you're done with
these 3 exercises in a row, your entire lower body will be
pretty well trashed. It's a great squat giant set!
