Have I missed something? What's a jerk spring? Is it different from a jerk dip/squat? |

Ah. I see you have added a note to the posted workout.
If the bar is heavy enough, should we be trying to synchronize ourselves with the flex/oscillation of the shaft? it would seem that this would require a bit of a pause at the bottom, unless you really went slow on the way down...
I don't think I've ever seen you post this before; just curious - what is the reasoning behind this exercise? develop the stretch reflex of the quads? What is the diffrerent training effect compared to a standard jerk dip squat, and why shouldn't I do ALL my jerk dip squats like this? |

LP -
Springs are to improve elasticity in the bottom of the dip; dip squats are to improve basic postural/positional strength. If you pause for the whip of the bar, you will miss it. |

Had limited time this morning
Power snatch up to 60kg, then 45kg x 2 x 4
Power Clean up to 80kg, then 60 x 2 x 4
Didn't get the thread on jerk springs - not really sure I am jerking enough for this to be effective. Really need to build a better strength base (and add about 10kg of muscle mass to my lean 69kg frame - I just don't want to go through the pain and expense of buying all new uniforms).

Coming off a pelvis/SI injury suffered from slipping of pullup bars and landing on edge of stack of ill-place bumper plates...still some lingering pain, but hell, I'm getting older - time to get used to that...back at'er.
PS - 64; 50 x 2 x 4
PJ - 90; 68 x 2 x4
Pain set in pretty badly, called it a day. |
