Who knows how to Clean and Jerk or Snatch?
    #15746198 - 02/01/12 07:20 AM (12 years, 1 month ago)

I "know how" to Clean and Jerk but its really sloppy and I know its very incorrect. One time I put 170 up with a Clean and Jerk but I wont try it again because I know my form is off. As far as my other lifts go I am perfect but these C&J's are just so much more complex. There is so much going on during the lift(compared to others) that it blows my mind.

I guess what I am asking is how did you learn how to C&J or Snatch?


I was thinking about taking a class at some point in time. It seems that they have a small crossfit gym near me. They offer a class on how to Clean and Jerk. These guys are "crossfit certified 1", which really doesnt mean too much to me but maybe they know how to clean. Especially since Olympic lifts are a big part of crossfit.

Or is there a better place I should be looking to take lessons? I would really love to take lessons from a professional but I dont know how to find one.

i've never had a problem with a single snatch in my life... you just got to know how to talk to them... be yourself if being yourself is cool... say Hi, I'm XUL, you don't know me but your gonna dig me... it'll work, cause U seem cool... if you do this right you'll never have to jerk nuttin ever again... of course you'll always have to clean after yourself though... :wink:

do lower weight, and watch some videos.  I think it would be better just to learn how to power clean first then upgrade to cleana nd snatch or jerk.

once you get this exercise down you wont need to do any other exercise :wink:

Yeah, watch videos of record lifters, study and practise with no weight, practise till the lift is done without thinking. Overthinking is when the lift gore baadd.

Pain is temporary. It may last for a minute or an hour or a day or even a year but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it will last forever.
