The Zercher Pad transforms your standard barbell into a specialized bar, making Zercher squats, carries, and lunges exceptionally comfortable. This innovative pad allows you to perform these movements with such ease that you may forget it's even there. Simply press the Zercher Pad onto a racked barbell, and you are ready to begin your squats, lunges, or carries.
Historically, trainers and athletes often avoided Zercher movements due to the discomfort caused by placing a barbell in the elbow crease. While solutions like knee sleeves and folded yoga mats offered some relief, they were often insufficient. The Zercher Pad addresses this issue directly.
The Zercher Pad features a molded, lightweight foam construction that is soft to the touch yet robust enough to support a loaded barbell. Weighing under 2 pounds, the Zercher Pad is also convenient to store in your gym when not in use.
This AbMat innovation was inspired by Christina Lazo, a powerlifter from St. Louis, MO, and a member of the AbMat team. She expressed a desire to perform Zercher Squats with less pain, which led to the development of the Zercher Pad. After more than 12 months in development, the Zercher Pad was created.
