Nice to see someone that reacts well to constructive criticism. it is a rarity.
Front squats are very useful for developing power in olympic lifts and for developing good leg drive in dead lifts. If you can master front squats they certainly give you all kinds of benefits.
If I had to guess, I would say those yellow plates might be 20 or 25 kilo. That would make "granny's" front squat about 135-155lbs. Those bumpers they are using are really weird. I'm not even sure who makes weights like that. I know that 25kg bumpers are pretty beastly looking things. Almost being too thick to grasp in one hand in a lot of cases.
Oh, upon a second look, there appear to be weights on there as well! I would say that maybe her weight is closer to 145-165! Not bad!
