Push Jerk + Rowing

Strength Workout (SWOD) 5/3/1 Push Jerk Wu @ 50% 5 @ 75% 3 @ 85% 1+ @ 95-100% Push Jerk Tip: If the leg drive is not directed straight up the bar will be sent out front where the combination of heavy weight and too-long moment arm will result in a failure. As with most lifts, the heavier the weight is the greater will be the chance of doing this. So the lift requires some technique, a surprising amount. The push press requires a press-like hand position at the start, not a jerk-like one. The hands must fully grip the bar, no finger tip-only contact. This is needed for the drive. An important part of the lift is the transition from leg drive to press-out. This occurs at about the same place as the sticking point in a strict press. The better the leg drive, the higher that transition point will be, and the easier the lock-out will be due to better triceps leverage. So drive those legs.
