Zercher Squat Guide
1.Stand in front of the bar and bend your knees into a slight squat position. Extend both arms and position the bar in the crook of your arms. Flex your arms and pull the weight in against your chest. Drive yourself upward into your starting position.
2.Push your hips back and lower your body into a squat until your upper thighs are at least parallel to the floor. Your elbows should hold the bar securely in place and should not move. As you squat, make sure that your chest remains upright. Pause, then press your body back up to the starting position.
