    Zercher squat can honestly be a main lower body lift, it has a easier learning curve then backsquat and i think its safer, not to mention it has great carryover to deadlift so your not missing much I think it can be a better option for non powerlifter general population types .

    • @PG.Coaching
      @PG.Coaching  4 года назад +5

      Its a great lift and a zercher can be rotated as a main lift from time to time if you aren't a competitive powerlifter for sure, let me know how your progress goes!

    Why would you want to rest a heavy, awkward barbell on your back? that sounds really dangerous! I personally can't think of a more comfortable place to hold hundreds of pounds than in the crooks of my arms

    I love Zercher Exercises. I include Zercher Squats, Goodmorning, and Shrugs into my program. I found that once I included seated barbell curls, JM press, and wrist curls/extensions it made the exercise more comfortable

    The one off of pins at or below parallel with a pause at the pins will help blow your conventional deadlift up, really any zercher squat.

    Attempt zercher lifts with caution. The bar only needs to move a bit and you will feel awful pain/numbness in your arm. Much safer lifts exist without the risk

      the way I found to mitigate that is to move with the bar like it's fused to your body, keep it close and slow down enough to pay attention to natural movement
