Ain’t trying to hit snap city best I’ve done in the past was 175x5 for front squats so 225x1 ain’t looking bad.

Form check pls. Last rep neck felt a bit odd perhaps need to work on better neck placement on the descend.

Well they look to depth and 7" shorts aren't bad.

But you look soft, like 14 year old schoolgirl core soft. Look at Aidan's front squat, tight solid.

Good to see you putting up some respectable row numbers. Gone are the days of the 16kg kB row.

Have you considered that your leg training is too quad dominant and not enough posterior chain? I see a lot of front squat, hack squat, leg press etc. and then maybe one PC exercise that’s done pretty light. I know you have had low back issues in the past so I assume your avoiding a lot of PC exercises for fear of injury. This is a mistake imo and you should address your weak points including low back, core, glutes instead of avoiding them/training them minimally.

Not saying you need to pull heavy DLs or even do RDLs btw. I would prob start with the safer stuff like glute bridge/hip thrusts (and actually progress then over time with weight or moving to unilateral movements), back extensions, and McGill big 3 for core. I think if you build up with these you can eventually get back to heavy pulls or RDLs with respectable weight instead of using 70 pounds forever
