Push Jerk:
- 1-1-1-1-1
Then,
21-15-9 for Time:
- Push Jerk (50% of today’s 1 rep)
- Bar over Burpee
- Situp
Today is a mostly based off of the push jerk. This is also known as the power jerk and is not as commonly used as a split jerk in the Olympic clean and jerk. As CrossFitters we use this lift a lot in metcons to speed up our cycle time and keep the intensity high. Today we will start with a 1 rep max push jerk and then speed it up a bit with 50% of that number in our metcon.
