Split Jerk

Workout 10 November 2010:

Split Jerk 1-1-1-1-1-1-1

Results: 135-145-155-165-175-180-185lbs
Previous best: 150-155-160-165-170-175-180lbs (2 Jan 09)

Today's workout was at CrossFit Confluence. I haven't been able to get past a 180lb jerk in over a year but was finally able to break the streak tonight at 185lbs. The three areas where I need the most work on this lift are getting under the bar quickly, dropping deeper into the catch, and maintaining a better shoulder lockout.

Afterwards, I did a 1000m row at about 80-90% effort with a time of 3'46.6. My best time at near-100% effort is 3'43, so I should be able to get a sub 3'40 row in the near future.
