A "good" front squat for a woman depends on her training level and experience.
According to Christian Bosse's website, here's a general guideline:
- Achievable: A front squat equal to 1-time her body weight is achievable for female athletes.
- Excellent: A front squat exceeding 1.4 times her body weight is considered an excellent result.
This means if a woman weighs 150 pounds, a good front squat for her would be:
- Achievable: 150 pounds
- Excellent: 210 pounds (1.4 x 150)
The following table summarizes these levels:
Level | Front Squat (Relative to Bodyweight) | Example (150lb woman) |
---|---|---|
Achievable | 1 x Bodyweight | 150 lbs |
Excellent | 1.4 x Bodyweight | 210 lbs |
It's important to remember that these are general guidelines. Individual strength levels can vary based on factors like genetics, training experience, and body composition.
