Hey Pope, Love what you are doing. I wanted to thank you, I've been struggling a little with my position in the split jerk and whilst i'd tried the squat jerk before and found it ok. I never thought of doing the Power Jerk, i tired it this past session and what a revelation, i actually find i have more control, i can feel the weight better. Well it is possibly a little early to tell if i'm a convert but i like how it feels so far! so thank you once again, Good Luck from the UK for the up coming competition.
So fun to watch you explore your fitness. Keep pushing yourself I hope it brings you all the happiness you desire
Thank you for all the informative content. Your videos are very fun! As an experienced trainee that is new to the sport of weightlifting, your content has been very helpful. Cheers and good luck
I like the format of this video, with the "flash back" to the open and you lifting. Nicely done.
Thank youuuuu for posting this I compete in strongman and was having similar issues with my dip drive. I am prepping for the Arnold too!!! You are awesome! Best of luck, hoping the power jerk will help my circus dumbbell
Excellent info. So strong, keep up the great work to maintain that comeback!
Go Pope! Always great info and I don't compete, just like lifting weights and remember watching Oly lifting during Olympics and Wide World of Sports when I was a kid. Fascinating.
I prefer power jerk, because it looks cool :)
Well done young lady. i prefer the power jerk as well. Best of luck in your training.
Very excited to see the pt stuff. My back pain has made normal squating and deadlifts impossible. Been going on for 3 weeks.
Love you Pope, Love Lu xiaojun too. Tian Tao also did power jerk well. Awesome!
I’m a powerlifter but you make me want to try Olympic lifting ❤️

how do you know someone crossfits? same as vegans they start off any sentence with... im a crossfitter.
love you kris!!
Please please please do the video on your low back strain recovery. I strained mine a few weeks ago and I’m struggling to rehab it and would love suggestions!!!
I always thought if you can split it with good technique just push it or power it up really good info
Its great that you are doing better with the switch. If you can work a bit more on your leg power, you can do 10kg more easily.
Gave myself ALOT of pain for the very curve you mention - did a fast split jerk and my pelvis was tilted very forward and they have been hot every time since
Have you ever looked into the old fashioned split clean and split snatch for us folks with severe mobility problems?
We all need a CBatch in our lives!
Can't wait to see you at the Arnold!
I gotta admit....I always thought you were stronger with the split, but wow you own the power technique.
With the split stance jerk... is it easier to have a compact stanced by kicking your front foot wider
Pelvic...Positioning...Drills..... I think that's the first time I've heard those words in that sequence, and I find them suitably intriguing.
How funny, exact same situation as me. Splits bother my right side too much. I have good mobility, so can get just as low in power jerk, so power jerk it is. Feel more stable too.
And I've always wondered if female back has bigger stress while lifting, since the lower part of female spine is slightly different from the male one (it is more curved because it has to support pregnancy).
I will switch to power jerk with no reason, only because of u ❤
So ive been a powerlifter for several years, and recently been experimenting with weightlifting. Power jerks feel really natural to me while split and squat feel really foreign and awkward. Should I just continue to power or try and force myself to learn the split/squat?
would you say squart jerk is better for hitting maxes because you can get below the bar whereas if you were power jerking it you would not be able to throw it up?
yeah❤️
Pope is dope :)
I find power jerk so much easier ive had a knee injury so the idea of splitting puts me off and that throws my form of for power jerk it feels so much safer and looks cleaner to fall under it without splittin
Novice question: Why choose a power jerk over a full squat jerk? Wouldn't a full squat allow even more weight?
omg girl....your traps.........awesome

Hi Pope You had mentioned pain bringing the weight back down from overhead as the final challenge in rehabbing your back. Would you share what you did to get past that. I'm coming back from an injury and having that exact same challenge Thanks!

coloradobee i had to avoid it altogether and ease back in to it with only light weights and slowly build it back up - doesn’t seem to bother it at all anymore

I’ve been lifting for 5 years. Just starting to get interested in this type of lifting. Excited about mastering this technique. My strength gonna go through the roof! Lol
Hey Pope, maybe others have pointed it out, but when the video cuts to the lift at 6:14 the meet sound is still up and it drowns out your narrative.

yeah that was an oops.
I squat jerked more from the rack but power jerked the most with full c&j
Is there a maximum weight that the heavier barbell can hold before bending? I've always wondered it.

pile333 Olympic weightlifting barbells like the one pope uses which is a women’s 15kg bar are fine probably up to like 600 lbs and men’s 20kg weightlifting bars are good up to probably 1000 lbs but just always make sure to check ur bar before going super heavy! These bars are expensive and rated to handle this kind of weight most regular bars are not good for that

Thanks for the reply. It would be interesting to see a barbell bending for the excessive weight (Ii must search if there's a "How it is made" sort of video stuff somewhere) and I'm pretty sure that companies that make them have them tested with these kinds of weight stress. I'd have guessed that 20 kg barbells could bear more than 1000 pounds (but probably it depends on the quality of the material). Oh, I've already passed the "going super heavy" time of my life (^__^) but these videos are quite interesting to learn how to make correct movements in training (and i also like biking and too big legs are a sort of an obstacle and my legs are naturally quite big already).

Alot of them actually bend and flex to allow for more weight without permanent bending it. Most deadlift bars are quite flexible

Yes, I've noticed that. It's particularly evident when they go super heavy. It must be a quite resilient metal; that's why it would be interesting to see how they process that.

Power jerk all the way, butt, what percentage of that was due to the beautiful symmetry of the power jerk form?
Best of luck with the power jerk :) Also how come so few who do olympic lifts actually do any grunting or scream because of the heavy weights? You loose core stability then?
@ah7027

Screaming requires you to exhale air. so for me personally that causes me to lose a bit of tension. when I stand up from my squat ill breathe out and sometimes make a slight noise but never when its over head. Id lose the weight. I'm actually the opposite and cant figure out why people grunt/ scream during their lifts. guess its just a preference thing

Arnold Sports Festival should be a worldwide travelling exhibit competition.
Mobility is such a problem for me. I wish I could put my arms that back lol
Kris your strong and cute. Your power jerk technique is awesome. This video is very good.
Celebratory booty slap lol 6:49
Pope is dope.
Dude when did the Appalachian mountains transfer over to being on top of your shoulders ?
Hey, Pope, what is your height and weight? Just curious.
Somehow I knew you were going to show that Chinese weightlifter in this video.
Your legs are goals! 😄
I really hope this new style works for u lookin good tho 😁😁😁
How long does a typical weightlifting workout take to complete?

the coach im with has my program set so its around an hour and a half including warm up. so around an hour to actually complete my actual lifts. im set to do roughly 12-15 reps of each lift depending on how heavy the day will be and then squats at the end.

I do that 3 days a week. off days at the moment are lighter variation of the snatch and jerk (I don't focus much on the clean because its easily 10kg above my jerk) Usually no touch snatches and drop jerks with 45-100 lbs then some rowing, bodyweight stuff and core work. still keep those to an hour or so as well. I enjoy lifting so sometimes its hard to make myself take the day off or keep from going to long or hard on a given day. so setting a lifting plan and following it really helps lol.
Tough to be in Georgia...... First the falcons the the bulldogs
Bradley martyn used to be my favorite youtuber, but a 250 lb man doing tricep extensions gets old and just isn't as entertaining as this. Kristin pope #1

I ask you this 2-3 weeks ago????
Where is the rehab video I want to see some exercises.
6:50 she was a bit too friendly 😂
Didn't you were a Georgia fan go Dawgs. We should've won that damn game.
If I'ma ever do a heavy jerk, it'll definitely be power jerk. Don't like the split, unless it's a full split with bodyweight. LOL.
First
Power jerk beats the shit out of the split jerk...on all levels. I only coach the power jerk.
I did not even know the “power” jerk was allowed
Pope?
I don't split nor power jerk, #SquatJerkGang
