So, i'm going through a divorce and going to pick up my homegym equipment in the morning. My squat rack is a wooden diy guillotine tier abomination, so i'm planning on just leaving it behind.
How does /fit/ feel about zercher squats? Or are there other better variations i can use until i get a suitable power cage?

clean the weight and front squat it.

Not a bad idea. Plus it would help me work on my power cleans, i've never really included them (still pretty dyel). If i want to squat heavier would zercher be a decent alternative? I know damn well i cant clean 200lbs

ftfy.
I was the one fucking around on her, and the divorce was my idea.
Are they that hard on the elbows?

No successful squatter has zercher squats in their programming, they may have experimented with them at one time, but they are not a stable of a good program.

Fair enough. Looks like i'll just front squat whatever i can clean till i get a new rack, which should only be a week or two. Still gonna try a few sets of zerchers for the hell of it.

Do lots of sumo deadlifts. They hit legs a bit more than conventional.
In your situation i'd probably focus on driving my semi-sumo deadlift up, and then doing front squats after as accessory more lightly

My deadlift is always a semi-sumo stance. Not feet damn near touching the plates sumo, but wider than conventional and hands inside knees. Conventional just doesn't feel right to me
