Jay and I have the press and push press down well, but the jerk is new to him, and honestly, I’m not the greatest at it either, so there we focused on form vs. load. I’m pleased with both of efforts in the press and push press …and even the jerk training.
Shoulders=trashed.
Push Jerk Singles Day
Ok, traps, shoulders, upper arms …taxed. Hard to type.
Yea, push jerks! {wink to all the oly certs}
WOD – Push Jerk
1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 x 1 (7 singles)
Warm up to 155lbs x 3
1)175
2)175
3)185
4)185
5)185
6)190
7)190
WOD summary
I really noticed the negative with the heavier loads. Bringing 190 back down slowly, to the shoulders before racking the weight, is a struggle as the muscles fatigue in the latter sets
