Did a Zercher squat with 1 rep of 225 today. Felt so awkward. Compared to a front squat, it seemed like it was somehow more stable with my center of gravity and balance, but less stable in the sense that my arms had less control over its positioning. Maybe it's a learned skill, could probably get used to it as an accessory.
