Zerchers are evil, specially if you start from the ground and not from a rack

Are you talking about the same Zerchers that I'm thinking of? Cos I'm not even sure that's physically possible...


Unless you're the size of this motherfucker...

 

[jonathan]

Nothing is impossible. I do my zechers starting on the bottom position standing on a plateau to enlarge the movement.

What is strict presses?

a strict press is in fact a military press. You push the weight up with NO legdrive.
