How many here do the Jefferson lift?

[PK-V]

I always throw in a few sets to finish off leg day

Killer exercise for the quads!

[bass]

never heard of it, but watched a video on youtube, it look hard on the back! how is it on the back compare to the regular squats?

[PK-V]

when you have you pelvis rotated it can for sure put excess stress on your erector spinae
this is the main reason I use it only as a burnout exercise that and crazy back pumps are no fun at all

as said above it can be a bit harsher on the low back compared to squats but assuming you use a belt and/or keep a tight core you should be good to go

I tried these once, I don't think I did them right. These and Zercher squats I don't understand very well.

Zercher squats my arms just hurt looking at them I used to do a lot of barbell hack squats when I trained at home with no rack done the job better than the z-squat could ever do imo
