“Grace”

For time:

Clean and jerk, 30 reps (Men 135 lbs, Women 85 lbs)

Use 95 pounds, 65 pounds or broomstick as needed and post time and load to responses.

Check out this video, courtesy of CrossFit Again Faster, that was posted on CrossFit.com. Pay close attention to the ladies form and how they get set before each rep, keep the bar close to their body, accelerate the bar when it comes above the knees, keep the arms straight until full hip extension, the bar making contact with the mid thighs, quick turn of the elbows, and the bar landing on the shoulders in the rack position. They both demonstrate excellent form and show how a clean and jerk should be performed.

  1. Well, I got cleared from the doctor to start working out again! Yay! I just have to start back slow & easy…which is really no fun!

    Anyway, I should see you guys in the next few days, although I will probably just get to do the warm-up for a while.
