If Rick Bugez taught me anything about the Zercher squat, it's that it is all about the MINDSET!!!

This dude is Georges St Pierre’s older brother.

I do Zercher Squats almost EXCLUSIVELY and my legs have grown and gotten stronger faster than regular squatting.
Plus my traps have gotten much more rigid and helps with all other shoulder workouts.
I LOVE IT.

Open up those ipps

Zercher squat is my favorite Squat variation, it's so underrated.

how did the egg get in shape?

I love opening my "Ips".

I started doing these about 5 years ago and think they're an excellent exercise.  Everybody seems to be overly concerned with the amount of weight that is used; always wanting to do as much as they can for a single rep.  Well, max singles do more in the way of causing injuries than inducing dopamine rushes.  I supinate my hands, keeping them a little less than shoulder width apart rather than with palms facing each other.  I was 59 years old when I started doing them and have never used more than 130 lbs.  I go to complete failure and do only one set.  That's plenty....and only once a week.  I try to get a minimum of 15 reps and try for 20.  I'm not there yet, but I'm 64 years old now.  They're difficult but a damn good exercise if done properly.

I workout from a home gym and I absolutely don't have any more space (or money) to get a squat rack. Therefore I started doing zerchers on my lower body days. I love it!

Did the Zercher squat for the first time at home today. Absolutely love how much it engages the back & trunk

Do you get hit with that yellow stick when bad form is displayed?

This is a multi-purpose movement 99% of the people I see in my gym just don't do..." it hurts my arms"....." I can't lift as much, so why do it?" ...this lift is hard as hell, and the biggest thing for me is it has helped my Deadlift and when done with low to moderate Weight and high reps 15 to 30 I fell like I just ran a marathon...this is an under-rated exercise that can be a awesome "secret ' weapon if guys stop wining and Man up....awesome video .

Now this is gold one I replaced with this from back squat routine and now I love it

Alright, you sold me on this.
I do love the core engagement of front and goblet squats. This does the same, and frankly it’s almost more comfortable for me than a front squat.

I have long femurs and I tried to switch to front squats but breathing was an issue. I started doing these and they solve the breathing problem (or at least it’s a lot better) and I love the upper back stimulation

Just added these and I love them already. I don't have a squat rack and honestly hate back squatting. This is a nice variation to really compliment my deadlifts. Great teacher too.

That Dude knows what he is talking about.chapeau!

There's nothing better than an egg-ercise.

I started incorporating this recently.. and it's a goldmine 💪👍 thanks.

"Eggs-ersice" - love the accent. The demo guy makes Thib look tiny!
