WOD 3/30/09

Don't I know I'm supposed to have knuckles to the ceiling? Probably a pretty bad split jerk too...

Clean & Jerk 135lbs/95lbs 30 reps for time



Here is Jason Khalipa, 2008 CF Games Champion, doing it in some ridiculous time. If you want to press/push press it instead of jerking it, go right ahead.

Great job everyone. Remember, these are very technical movements and we incorporate them into the WOD to become better CrossFitters. Keep working on these movements and you will get good at them, just like anything else. Here is the clean and jerk demo off the CrossFit site.

Here is some Olympic footage of heavy clean and jerks. These guys have to do a full clean/squat clean with very large loads. Today we did power cleans for "Grace".
