Default Front Squat?

I tried out the front squat for the first time today and i really didn't feel anything, i think it was cause i couldn't hold enough weight to really hit my legs.

So I'm wondering is it any better than the back squat to the point of spending weeks learning how to do it? or should I just stick with the back squat until I stall out on it?

Thanks

front squats are more know for being quad and core builders, if those areas are lacking for you then I would throw them into the workout every now and then.

My man the front squat is advanced but good. give it time! any free squat is good as long as you drive hard!

Peace
