what is your hight and weight? 

[spytechceo]

@nikolatesla08 5'10", and in that vid I was around 235lbs I believe. 245-250 right now.

[nikolatesla08]

@nikolatesla08 were about the same hight, Im 5'11 195. do you find its easier to do zercher squats? I was able to hit 545 last week and might of been able to hit 600. I think it was around 28 inc judging by the bend in your kines in the video. Iv never squatted over 450 or deadlifted over 400. I lover zercher squats. impressive videos by the way. What type of training split do you use?

[spytechceo]

@nikolatesla08 thanks man. well partial zerchers should be easier than a full dead/squat an day due to the shortened rom and more upright posture. being such it is hard to compare them to full rom deads/squats. apples and oranges. I've worked up to 675 for a double on zerchers at this range of motion, and can do 500+ (never maxed) with a full squat zercher. Not sure if it would come close to my full squat max (585-600). I've been doing various Sheiko routines for the last 35-40 weeks.

Very nice. How much can you deadlift?

[spytechceo]

@zerk54 Not sure what my max is at the moment. I took a long time off from deads after I did that 700x2 from the top (posted in another vid) and just started up again this summer. Right now I'm repping 660+ pretty handily, so I think I could hit low 700's...but hard to say.
