**Didn’t get enough of front squats yesterday? Good! Because we’ve got some more today. Paired with power cleans, we’ll be something that resembles a squat clean.
We keep the barbell in the workout and get in a little complex with a Curtis P. Lots of versions out there… yep.. which is why video links are included to show the version we do, and have done, since we’ve started doing this movement. Dips show a strict version on the rings, but you can also kip or use a box as a scaled version. Four reps at this weight on the Curtis Ps should be unbroken. There are usually issues with this movement in either balance with the lunges, or transitioning from the front racked lunges to the shoulder to overhead. Keep that in mind when choosing your weight. If that means going lower to maintain a good rack position, then go that route.
