Step-by-step instructions
- 01Start in the jerk rack with the feet already in your squat stance, the elbows slightly in front of the bar, and pressure over each whole foot.
- 02Brace and dip straight down by bending the knees while keeping the torso vertical and both feet fully connected to the floor.
- 03Brake the dip and drive vertically with the legs to accelerate the bar from the shoulders.
- 04Without lifting or replacing the feet, rebend the knees and push under the rising bar until the elbows lock over the midfoot in a power receiving position.
- 05Stabilize, stand to full extension, and lower the bar safely only after balance is secure.
