I've got mixed emotions about them. On one hand, it's a welcome addition since I'm squatting thrice a week, so I can go lighter. On the other hand, I only feel a real benefit to my quads by elevating my heels on 10 lb. plates..Which in turn places more stress on my knees. At first it really killed my front delts and left brusing, but now it's not an issue.

If I'm not on this program, I do not do front squatting. If I ever feel the need to hit my quads more than they already are with A2G back squats, I'll either elevate my heels slightly or go do leg extensions for 15-20.

I've tried this program before doing all three days with back squats and didn't really care for it. The second workout using 10-15% of the previous workout's weight wasn't very beneficial. However, front squats make the weight a whole lot harder.
