Front Squat to Back Squat.

What should my ratios be? If I squat 2pl8, how much should I be able to front squat?
>>
70-80% assuming you don't have form issues with either.

about 3:4 for me. depends on your proportions though. if your back squat is 2plate, you probably shouldn't bother with front squats just yet.
>>
3pl8

I knew putting a picture of a girl masturbating would actually get me some useful replies.

I guess that's what it takes these days

If you are having trouble with form on your back squat front squats could help. I had bad core issues was leaning foward too much when driving up and front squat helped fix it. I was highbar squatting just over 2 pl8 at the time

I agree with the first part, my front:back ratio is around, 3:4 also. But, I disagree with you not bothering with front squats if your back squat max is 2pl8.
>>
your back squat should be as high as possible
don't worry about your front squat.

core weakness and lack of hip flexibility.

How's that? Doesn't the hip flex more for back squats?
