Hi BBM Team,
My wife and I had a baby last year and it rocked my world. Coming back from an 8 or 10-month layoff and I plan to use the beginner template to on ramp back into training. I feel like pushing front squats this time around. So, phase 1 would be 3 days of FS, phase 2 would include front paused squats, and phase 3 would include front pin squats. Are there any changes or special considerations for this swap?
Thank you

Not really any special considerations when replacing one squat variation for another, assuming you can train the front squat productively, i.e. you have a good rack position, technique is efficient, and so on.
FWIW, I wouldn’t program 3 days of front squats per week, as I don’t think you’re a real beginner. I’d prefer more variety in squat pattern movements, e.g. front squats, leg press, and DB split squats for example.
