The Zercher squat

[chubbman]

I was in gym today zercher squatting away as you do, 450lbs of course. I failed to complete a set and then had some guy try convert me to the front squat. Talking mad shit about elbow joints and soreness and injuries... I like the soreness.



So I come to you sherbros, what's your opinion on the zercher squat?

I think it's a gimmick lift.

A lil bit, I like that if you fail you can just gently drop it into the rack without making a big show of it.
