Barbell Push Jerk

Starting Position

1. Hold the barbell in front of your shoulders and place your feet shoulder-width apart.

2. Engage your core and prepare with your chest open.

Proper Form

1. Slightly bend your knees and hips to gather strength in your lower body.

2. Push your legs strongly to press the barbell overhead, fully extending your arms to stabilize it.

3. Again, slightly bend your knees to absorb the impact and lower the barbell to shoulder height.

Breathing Technique

Inhale when bending your lower body, and exhale when pushing the barbell upward.
