[JackDaScarecrow]

@al251992 he's not a body builder he's a football player a DB at that.

[al251992]

@JackDaScarecrow bodybuilders dont do this sort of thing, but yeah i get wut u mean, but still, pretty pussy weight, only 70kg.......................... cmon thats nothing im sure he can atleast squat 160 kg, given hes a DB, a sprinter and has powerfull legs, besides hes aspiring to be a pro nfl player he should atleast be a bit over ordinary dont you think?

[LexPhilogus]

@al251992 How do you know he's not just warming up here? Maybe he's working on form. Maybe it's his 30th rep.

[GANGSTAELPASO]

@al251992 he's a corner you douche, one of the smallest guys on the field, now if you want to see some weight on that bar look at the line man lifts

push jerk ftw

[hekoka]

oh haha my bad...misread the title. to be honest i was oblivious of the term power jerk. as far as i knew it was either a strict press, push press or a jerk....what hes doing to me seems a push press.

a jerk and a press are entirely differnt movements even though both involve hoisting the bar overhead.

[grambo22]

Press = bar from shoulder to overhead lockout, no knee/hip movement

Push press = Dip in knees then leg drive to lock bar out overhead (no re-dip)

Push/power jerk = Push press with a re-bend in knees to catch the bar in a lower position, then stand up to complete

Split jerk = same as push/power except athlete lands in a split after the re-dip whereas the power/push they land in a 1/4 squat or 1/8 squat position

Also that gym looks AMAZING

[hekoka]

i knew all that as taught by one albanian weightlifting national coach :)

[chitownp1noy]

that is a hang clean and jerk

[ginroth]

This is the first footballer I've seen do this with correct form. Good luck at the combine!

[southbayvelocity]

First timehe ever did it. Good athlete. Doing upto110 now. Just needs to have core catch up to leg strength.

[ginroth]

How much does he weigh? Also, how much does he squat?

[hekoka]

no! this is not a clean and jerk! it is a hang clean and a nincorrect jerk attempt. it is more of a push press.

wehn you jerk , you dip, explode upwards with your leg and hips, then dip again low. if the bar is pressed then it is faulty.

this is a clean and press. far from a jerk.

[ginroth]

It's actually a correct form power jerk, read the title of the video.
