Finally got a bench and barbell at the fire station. No squat rack yet though. I think we can do front squats off of the bench. What other exercises can we do until we can afford a rack? Goblet squats? I want to try to replicate the back squat as closely as possible. How creative are you willing to get? 
or Clean it, front squat Clean it, jerk it, back squat Snatch it, overhead squat Snatch it, back squat Steinborn it |

I'd look into building a jerk block type, cost is time and the materiel, which shouldn't be all that bad

fuck that shit.
Looks more like a pain in the spine... --> Building Jerk boxes would be my recommendation... |

Buy a trap bar. Safer and replicates a squat without many of the lower back concerns.

Ironmind has a compact squat rack; it can be set up to do other stuff, too:

That Steinborn squat is a new one on me, never heard of that before. Looked pretty amazing but you won't catch me trying it!

You're not going to be able to squat the kind of weight needed for strength gains without a rack.
I'd focus on heavy deadlifts and lighter weight squats for assistance work. (front squat from cleaning the weight up, maybe some dumbbell squats. Whatever works for you) Also, you guys can't tell me that steinborning doesn't have a much higher chance of injury, particularly if someone isn't already well experienced with regular squats. There's so much that could go wrong. What percent of a real max squat is an experienced lifter even able to steinborn? |

How can you front squat out of your current rack but not back squat? Is your bench attached?
Another alternative movement would be sumo deadlifts. Gives you a lot more hip/leg engagement than your typical DL. |

We also found a grant for fitness equipment that we are going to apply for. |
