That could be it. I front squat at least once a week, to help with my cleans.

Nobody can answer a squat question without a video. 95% of gym lifters do not squat to depth. Perhaps you are going deeper with your back squats. Put the bar lower on your back squats, point your feet out, spread your legs wider, and learn to breathe and you will see your poundage go up.

I wouldn't worry about it - if you must, work on hip flexibility and maybe add in box squats and/or a low-bar grip for a cycle (Stronglifts is a good resource for that.)

I never did until I had back issues in my upper neck from grappling and had to go to the front for about 4 months. I really don't like doing them much but will still hit them about every 3rd or 4th quad workout just to mix things up.

I've done a front squat in a competition before, about 9 months ago, and I front squatted 345# for it and it counted.
What sort of competition was this? I have never heard of such a thing.

Rhymes with Mossfit.
