First time front squatting since June '15.  155X10 is a Rep PR, hahahaa.  Ended up with a bit wider stance.  Since I lift in Chucks, it makes it easier to keep my heels down.  Also used a very controlled eccentric to make sure I stayed tight and didn't lose form hitting the hole and rebounding.  I've actually tweaked my back on this lift a few times in the past and want to err on the side of not repeating that.

Inclines were also a deliberate, controlled eccentric but really focusing on being both explosive AND controlled on the press.

Rows are rows.
