@bcg347 He "presses it out." In the essence of the movements, your elbows have to be straight while catching both the snatch and jerk. It's a fast transition from the shoulders to overhead. Jason, though getting the jerk over head, clearly "presses out" with his elbows; i.e. he jerks to a point where his elbows are still bent and presses the rest of the way. Good showing of strength and will... needs a bit of work with his maximal loading jerks.
Congrats on the PR cleans. He pushed out the jerk very blatantly though. Call me a snob, but in the essence of olympic lifting, I wouldn't really call that a PR Jerk.
did he really just clean and jerk 317? that is damn impressive.....i always hear people in the bodybuilding community saying CrossFit is for pussies, but CF guys seems to be very strong
Good God! Your PB cleans are 14lbs heavier than my PB deads. Think it's time to eat :+)

why go heavier when he couldnt even lock out the 317? Bent arms - FAILED lift

@badrock4 No he cleaned and pressed it because that jerk was a failure.

@EndlersaurusRex This is true, but not within the scope of crossfit.

@novan08 So it's alright that he fails at an exercise because it's already impressive enough in accordance to his sport?
