Thanks Pat O. for sharing your B4B photos
Since today's workout included familiar body weight movements, we did an extended warm-up using an unfamiliar skill. Jerk Balance. After reading through the CrossFit Journal, I came across a bunch of articles by Bob Takano. Specifically one from August of 2010, titled Teaching The Split Jerk. Great Read. If you do not subscribe to the CrossFit Journal you are missing out on a wealth of CrossFit knowledge. Sign up today using the link on the right side of our website. It might be the best $25 investment you make this year.
