I’ve looked and looked and can’t find video on Crossfit situps. All i know is 8 min abs. Would anyone be kind enough to point me in the right direction? Thank you.

Question: On one of the 160s I had a slight bobble on the clean from not quite getting one elbow under the bar fast enough. Should I count that as a failed lift?

yea today was my first day ever doing clean and jerk. i think it went well. a little werid at first but get it down ok. the only problem is i cant get the kick out or when u go from shoulders to the finsh postion. do you have to spread your legs when going up to the finsh postion or can u just keep your feet shoulder with? thanks
If I catch you correctly, you are having trouble achieving the Split position during your Jerk, yes?
The Spilt Jerk is not required for this WOD, so keeping you feet about shoulder width for the Jerk is acceptable. This is called a “Push Jerk”.
The Split Jerk takes a little practice in order to train your muscles to take your feet/legs to the proper position while diving under the bar. For most people it does prove to be a little more useful because at heavy weights it doesn’t require quite as much flexibility and balance as does the Push Jerk.
Got back from Disney World yesterday and got back to the WOD today.
Did a little technique work on the Clean and Jerk then did the WOD for Feb 27

Felt good to get back into it after I got all fat and happy last week!
I have never done a clean-and-jerk before, so I did this one for form: 5x25#, 5x35#, 5x35#.
Started from the floor each time, finally felt like I was getting the hang of the clean after about five of these. I actually ended up needing to dump once (after moving up to 35#) because I was off-balance on the jerk half. This is a much more complicated motion than it seems!
Push jerk felt a LOT more stable than split-jerk, so after trying a few each way, I stuck with the push jerk. This could just be because there was a push jerk workout last week and I’m more familiar with it, so I’m going to try the split-jerk again next time it comes around.
10 min. bike
CFWU (stretch, squats, Smith machine GH sit-ups and back extension, KPU 6/6/6, and dips 10/10/10)
Tried to remember the components of the Burgener warm-up…
Hang C&J 45x5
Hang C&J 65/75/85/95 (hang power C&J)/95 (better)/105 F/105 (hang power C&J)
Obviously, I need more work on this skill.
I have been dealing with a shoulder problems. Overhead presses, push-us, and dips all aggravate the heck out of my shoulders. The clean part i can get a lot more up than I can jerk right now. Should I make 2 different excersizes?
