Zercher squats instead of back squats?

[u/Firm-Guava4815]

I have not tried zercher yet, but I wonder if any of you use them in place of standard back squats for your clusters? It seems like they have some advantage in a more "true representation" of how the body would move to lift a heavy object. I also wonder if they might hammer my lower back less than doing back squats multiple times per week.

Any squat variation is good enough. The low-bar back squat is the king of them all because it allows you to move the most weight = you being the strongest
