Jerk Balance

This is a skill-focused Olympic weightlifting drill for FitnessTracker users working on precision. It builds control during the jerk and helps prevent common errors in foot placement.

Instructions

1. Start with a light barbell in the front rack position, standing tall with a slight staggered stance.
2. Dip your knees slightly and drive the bar upward using your legs (not arms) while keeping your torso vertical.
3. As the bar rises, move your front foot into a full split position under the bar while keeping your back foot stationary.
4. Catch the bar overhead with your arms fully extended and your torso stable.
5. Stand up with control to finish the lift, then return the bar to the starting position.
