Zercher squats are ugly, uncomfortable, and very useful. Which, frankly, makes them a suspiciously good fit for jiu-jitsu.

Unlike a regular back squat, the Zercher position loads the body from the front. That forces more work from the trunk, upper back, lats, and arms while your legs still have to drive the movement.

For BJJ, that can help develop:

• stronger posture when someone is pulling or folding you
• more trunk stiffness during pressure passing and body locks
• better leg drive for takedowns, stand-ups, and scrambles
• more upper-back strength for maintaining position under pressure
• strength in a front-loaded position that feels more specific to grappling than a traditional back squat

That doesn’t make Zerchers “better” than regular squats. Regular squats are excellent for building general lower-body strength and are easier to progressively load.

Think of it this way:

Back squat = raw strength foundation
Zercher squat = front-loaded strength with more grappling-specific demand

Use both intelligently.

YOUR JIU-JITSU NEEDS MORE THAN MAT TIME. 🦍

Technique comes first. But when two athletes are fighting for the same position, strength and conditioning can make a difference.

Purposeful lifting helps you develop:

🥋 Stronger frames and posture to resist pressure and maintain position.

⚡ More explosive power for bridges, stand-ups, takedowns, and scrambles.

💪 Better pulling and grip strength to maintain connections and control.

🔋 Greater physical capacity to support consistent training on the mats.

The goal isn’t to destroy yourself in the weight room. It’s to build strength that supports your jiu-jitsu, not competes with it.

Swipe through for a sample weekly split and an upper-body session.

TRAIN BJJ 3X A WEEK? HERE’S HOW TO FIT STRENGTH AND MOBILITY AROUND IT. 🦍

You don’t need to choose between getting stronger and improving your Jiu Jitsu. You need a weekly structure that manages fatigue.

THE SILVERBACK WEEKLY SPLIT:

💪 MONDAY: Upper Body Strength + Mobility
🥋 TUESDAY: BJJ + Post-Roll Mobility
🦵 WEDNESDAY: Lower Body Strength + Mobility
🥋 THURSDAY: BJJ + Post-Roll Mobility
🔥 FRIDAY: Hypertrophy, Grip & Core
🥋 SATURDAY: BJJ / Open Mat
🧘 SUNDAY: Recovery + Mobility

3 lifting days. 3 mat days. 1 recovery day.

The key isn’t training harder every single day. It’s managing your workload so your strength sessions support your time on the mats.

Keep Friday’s volume manageable if Saturday is a hard rolling day. Adjust your lifting when recovery starts slipping.

This is a sample split, not a rigid prescription. Build around your actual BJJ schedule.

📌 SAVE THIS POST for your next training week.

GASSING OUT BEFORE THE ROUND IS OVER?

Your gas tank is more than just cardio.

BJJ demands three overlapping energy systems:

⚡ Alactic: Explosive shots, scrambles, and escapes.

🔥 Anaerobic glycolytic: Sustained high-intensity exchanges when the pace gets ugly.

🫁 Aerobic: The engine that supports sustained work and recovery between hard efforts.

All three contribute throughout a round. The goal isn’t to survive one explosive exchange. It’s to recover and keep producing effort when the next one comes.

Stop relying on random cardio. Build conditioning that works alongside your Jiu Jitsu.
