I come from a powerlifting background and started o-lifting 3 months ago. I am having extreme troubles with my jerk. I can clean close to 100 pounds more than I can jerk. I feel completely all over the place and don't know what is going wrong. Any feedback would be highly valued. Thanks! Here is a video of a 80% jerk, a new PR, then 2 failed attempts at 105% I know it is normal to get hard in the 105% range. My concern is that I can almost push press the same amount of weight that I jerk. Something isn't right.
