Show Notes

What's up, Achievers?! In the first question, we dive into how to get into a better front rack position for front squats. Check out this youtube video for a visual of the exercises we discussed [here](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3olJCZoaV4k) (2:15). We then talked about how to increase squat strength by adding additional squat days or by adding assistance work (7:46). Finally, we discuss some lower-back friendly strength training exercises as well as a mobility/stability strategy to help with lower back pain. Here's another [youtube video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7EG7bvlvCPw) to help with visuals as well (11:38). We hope you enjoyed this episode! If you did, we'd love you forever if you left a rating and review on iTunes - it seriously helps us out a lot! Please DM us @achievefitnessboston on Instagram if you have any questions you'd like us to answer. Until next time, Peace, Love, and Muscles! Jason and Lauren
