Better Drive - Pause Jerk Complex
If you tend to cut the drive of your jerks short, give this a shot.
Do 1-2 pause power jerks + a pause split jerk.
Focus on a balanced, vertical dip & drive on every rep—there should be ZERO difference between the dip & drive of the power and split.
Feel your legs driving the bar up off your shoulders before you move your feet.
You can use a push jerk instead (feet stay connected to floor) if you find it helps you finish your drive better.
Remember, the sport is weightlifting, not weightgettingundering—you cannot out-split inadequate bar acceleration/elevation in a heavy jerk.
