REG PARKS & SS is a lot alike... Yess, Op should stick with SS buttt... Its a lot like Babylovers, a little bit tweaked here and there...
The first set of five would be about 60% or 90 lbs, and the second set of five would be about 80% or 120lbs. After that you would get down to the grit, what Reg liked to call Stabilizer Sets; 3 sets of 5 at 150lbs.

Tested Front Squat today, Gym doesn't have a Squat rack, so i use the Incline bench, as a rack... I had no problems back squatting with it, but using the incline rack for the front squat...
It hurt my wrist trying to take it out the rack.. No more Front squatting; back squatting all the way :s
I attempted my usually work set for back squats. 5 x 5 with 185... But it seems that i did too many front squats that i didn't have enough energy. My lower back starting feeling all the tension... I should invest in a belt?
