How to do Push Jerk: - Begin with a barbell in the front "rack" positon (see "front squat"). - Dip your body downwards slightly by flexing the hip, knee and ankle joints, making sure to keep the torso as upright as possible. - Jump upwards out of the dip position by violently extending the said joints, and press the barbell upwards. - Upon completion of full joint extension, and while the weight is moving upwards, push yourself under the bar and receive it in a partial squat. - The foot should move from a position under the hips to a shoulder-width position. - Elbows should be fully extended upon receiving the bar. - Complete the jerk by standing up out of the partial squat position with barbell supported overhead and returning the feet to hip position. - Athlete must show complete control of the bar at the top before lowering it.
