The Watson Gym Zercher Squat Bar The Zercher Squat is a little known exercise but is great for building upper quad mass. The Watson Zercher Squat Bar is held on the forearms (either with the arms out straight or crossed). The Zercher Squar Bar puts the loads & centre of gravity much lower than when performing a front squat. Great also for Strongman training, the Watson Zercher Squat can carried like a stone. The Zercher Squat Bar 2" Thick bar makes it comfortable to hold & it won't cut into your arms. Have a look at our EZ version of this Bar.
