Whiteboard of the Day

Today, you'll go for a heavy, unbroken clean and jerk complex.

For most of you, working sets should start around 60% of your 1-rep-max clean and jerk. If you're not sure what that is, choose a load for your first set that you could potentially perform for 3-5 cleans and 2-3 jerks without putting the bar down.

Beginners may increase the volume of the jerks to provide more opportunities to practice at light loads.

Lift once every 4 minutes. Use the remaining time after each complex to recover before your next set.

We'll spend the majority of our warm-up time drilling the clean and jerk to dial-in mechanics and give plenty of time to practice technique.
