Erf, those split squats sound dirty 
Good work
Good work
Erf, those split squats sound dirty
as always
gota love them though. They kill the top of my hamstrings and glutes big time.
lol that's quite a lot of work! High reps on fronties kills me
naa..not really. Its one 1 hard set per exercise really...unlike some of your workouts
Im starting to like fronts actually...if I can keep my elbows up and my weight back. Started these to keep to try keep some load of my back (its not very great) which you get more from back squats.

Shifting some nice weight there mate 
I'm same as you, I much prefer the Front Squats, they just feel a much more rounded exercise and a lot less stress on the back. Awesome exercise, so under-rated. Hardly ever see anyone else doing them. 95x10 is about the same level I'm at, once I go over 100kg it's a struggle keeping the reps high.

cheers dude...but issues, issues, issues lol. Havent really fronted over 100Kg for a long time...but its my wrists that give up first usually (use clean type grip). I plan on using these lots more in the future with constant back problems just now.

ye maybe should just keep adding the weight by 2.5kg or so regardless of reps. Ive been at that for about 3 weeks now as a max..so need to change something. Probably could doing with adding some bodyweight also..last time I benched 10+ reps fo 100K I was over 80Kg and after a couple of bouts of HST...now at 75-76...so not to bad really I suppose. But trying to avoid dem fat gains
100kg still feels friggin heavy though.
