1. How exactly do you create the shelf across your shoulders for the bar? I tried them during my last workout and used the clean grip. The grip itself wasn’t uncomfortable but it seemed like the bar was resting against my collarbone and this caused some discomfort. Is this just something I need to accept or is there a better way to hold the bar across my shoulders?

2. There’s less glute/hip movement during them, right? I’m used to back-squatting and I really like to push my hips back during my back squat. During a front squat should my hips be moving back or should my torso be nearly vertical throughout the movement?

3. It seems like my feet will rotate out a bit with a closer stance, is this OK?
