What percentage of your squat can you front squat?

What percentage of your squat can you ATG (full atg like pic related)?

What percentage of your squat can you front squat atg?

I ditched back squats for front atg after injuries and am trying to figure out if I'm weak or not. Progress has been a lot slower but I guess if you can only use like 50% of the weight that makes sense.

I can front squat 77% of my back squat. I read that optimal ratio is 80%, but again "it depends"
I always squat ATG, front and back

I almost exclusively do ATG frontsquats (and overhead squats). So I can ATG frontsquat about the same as I highbar backsquat which is 120kg for reps.

I know, learn to cope with that. You'll grow eventually.

Anyway, not every guy has the same anthropomorphic features and the same torso/leg proportions. 75%~85% is I believe the most accepted range.

I had heard front is 85% of back, but ATG seems like it's also usually another 15-20%.

Anyhow, it's weird, because years ago, 10lbs lighter, just as lean, I could parallel squat 245 for 5.

Now I can only front atg 185 for 5, but my dead went from 305 around then to 365 for 3 now.

>>42197433
Not much. Shoulders are pretty tight so I have trouble keeping the bar in place right now during a front squat. Any advice on how to improve faster?

>you need to attain a certain weight standard before you can progress to other exercises.

My max squat is 140 and my max front squat is 120.

ALso I can't squat that deep because my shins are longer than my femurs.
>>
>>42197433
>What percentage of your squat can you ATG

Redundant.
If you aren't squatting ATG then you aren't squatting.

>ALso I can't squat that deep because my shins are longer than my femurs.
That is just about as ideal as it gets
>>
>>42199518

I know. I'm pretty decent at squatting. Also I train bulgarian weightlifting so I'm squatting every day in addition to snatches and cleans.
>>
>>42199535
Then why are you complaining? That IMPROVES squat depth if anything.

That's no way to lift for life.
>>
>>42199556

Oh I wasn't complaining. I just added that I can't squat ATG. A lot of people think everyone needs to squat ATG, but fail to realize that some people actually aren't able to.
