I am just curious to what the biggest front squat is? I have never even tried to use a squat suit in front squat, so I dont know if anyone else has either. Obviously it isnt a true powerlift, so I cant just easily look it up online. I know its over 600 lbs, since I have seen that.

probably by and olympic lifter i would guess they throw up some sick numbers in front squatting as your have to use that movement in the 2 lifts

front squats are weird... i worked up to 315 for reps and it was pretty tough but while back squatting i can get like 200 more pounds for reps i dont no maybe since you use more quads
