You should stop trying to change this program and just do it.

Are you referring to my squats, my additional exercises or my diet?

you have an injury, so it is right to adjust. I honestly think what happens is that we go into this program too quick. Many people are going from a totally deconditioned state to lifting heavy complex movements. That's a recipe for injury. Many people end up having to drop weight anyways and work on form (getting to full squat depth safely), so you might as well get it done in the beginning.

Thremp is just rar hardcore, so take that into account. Front squats are totally fine. The difference in the grand scheme is miniscule.

I actually don't see the contradiction between recommending one sticks to the program and one stepping backwards to focus on form and progressing with care.

i don't either. I just thought maybe thremp was like, "blah keep on adding weight follow the program". He might not be. If your form sucks it doesn't make sense to add weight really. Just letting wolf know that was fine.
