3 Tips To Improve Your Jerk (OLYMPIC WEIGHTLIFTING 101)

[@Ale-mv3gr]

I read it as "improve, you jerk". Best advice ever.

[@musclemonster1993]

I find raising my elbows while I dip is super helpful to get the bar to launch off and not go forward. Tip I got from my brother who was a 6 time national school age champ

[@LassBass59]

Never thought to do pause jerk dips. Thank you for this.

[@SquatUniversity]

You're welcome!

[@michaeldyer3244]

Chinese do these a lot at end of work out.

[@osiris3yhn]

3:35 so never do overhead jerk with straps Incase the bar goes behind your head and ur hand gets trapped like that right ??

[@SquatUniversity]

I don't do any cleans or jerks with straps - no.

[@bryanmarlar229]

Gonna try the straps for mobility

[@coralBlue]

Can we get a video on how to get the most out of a dip

[@nick-xu1714]

What are your thoughts on reverse hyperextensions?

[@bartbtsful]

Thanks 👍

[@atab7999]

Can the left hip be retroverted and right hip normal??

[@sheikyabootie]

The wife sent this to me. She'd clicked on it originally thinking it was a video to help with a better husband.

[@Alejandro-te2nt]

what should the position of the hips and legs be in the catch?

[@smolboyi]

There are videos on this but both legs should be bent, back leg only slightly, they should be equidistant from start position, approximately same width as squat form. This is for split jerk of course

[@ade1234123]

no hookgrip?

[@swiftskilly]

Hey what about his wrist position in the catch????

[@SquatUniversity]

Ideally an extended wrist is a position of stability.

[@Alejandro-te2nt]

@@SquatUniversity by extended do you mean straight?

[@mcculloughmethod6912]

@@Alejandro-te2nt no. don’t keep it totally straight or totally bent back but bent back at about 10 degrees

[@pbj5521]

@@Alejandro-te2ntwrist bent back. Think about your wrist position in the front rack.
