Tip & Technique: Burpee Combos part III

Next in our little burpee series, Burpee C&J. This is a logical progression from last week. We're simply adding in the jerk at the end of the sequence. So, follow the pattern from last time, barbell burpee into the clean. We're looking at a push jerk here as opposed to a split jerk. So, the feet don't move sagitally (front and back). After the catch there is a very slight and very fast flexion and extension at both the hip and knee. Shoot the weight up over your head and dip down slightly underneath it as it continues to rise. Stand up to full lock out, bring the bar down, rinse and repeat.

Remember that warning about taking it a step at a time, using only loads you know will be safe for you at first? Yeah that one. Watch it. Take your time. Be honest with yourself and have a blast!

Now MOVE!
