You know the worst part is I opened that actually thinking this was a training picture. Note to self: read the replies first. At least there were no kids in my office. |

I too was thinking: "I'll check this out, I need some help with front squats........whoah." But you know what? for some reason, I'm now motivated to do front squats. Also a convincing argument, at least in this specific instance, for NOT crossing arms over chest... |

I am sure that the good people at Sorinex can place her in the proper position to fully use her assets. You guys are just good like that. |

My guess would be that Dow Corning deserves some thanks as well (at least for the chick with the barbell).
