nice thruster
thats not why you crossfit.
Well I’m fairly impressed by this video because I wasn’t aware there were any crossfitters who actually look like they lift weights.
The rules stated only the need to lock out the weight overhead. Since Jason is insanely strong he did not need to jerk the weight, hence his faster time (less ROM).
sorry, Jason. good job on the weight, but that’s not a Jerk, that’s a press or thruster…
c’mon man….
Then you need to watch the Kallista one off of the main website. All I can say is wow!
I love this video…it’s my favorite CF video now…so much excitement at the end. Congrats Jason, awesome job. By the way you’re huge for a CF’er.
Jason, thanks for your video. It appears to be a better view both for extension of elbows and getting your head through… much better then the one here. There will always be detractors, great win and congrats.
jcebedo…..I understand your concern, please watch my full video on youtube I think it will give you a better representation of my ROM. Thank you for your input..I just posted the video last night
those reps do not count. pause some of the reps you will see clearly. the rules:
The finish position is with the arms, hips and knees fully extended, arms overhead, with at least a portion of the ear visible in front of the arm. Dropping the barbell is acceptable.
the arms, knees and hips were not fully extended. parts of it were but not all at once
I will have a better video posted soon, this one was not mine someone else put it up. The video I will put out has my entire workout so you can see the ROM which I understand does not seem very complete in this video
some of his reps don’t appear to lockout completely. Amazing effort none the less, but it doesn’t look like jason obtains full ROM on some of the reps. possibly a better angle or video quality would change that.
I have to agree and I am the annoying person in the video!!!
The goal of “Grace” is to get it from the ground to overhead in anyway possible. What an effort. I only wish I was there to witness it in person! Ditto on the Pat Barber pre-race favorite in 2009.
You would be correct about the clean and jerk being two defined movements. This would be considered a squat clean into a push press. Hard to tell in the video how the other competitors performed their movement, but I did see some jerk movements. No doubt he is incredibly strong to press that much weight 30 times in 2:38.
If you take Speal, at 135lbs lifting 155lbs. He would almost have to do a jerk movement, as the jerk is a more powerful move, but takes more time to complete than a press.
Not much of a jerk on these but great job all the same
Well, the burpees with them were definitely a factor and probably were the majority of everyone’s time in the event, so it might not have been an advantage to smaller guys, but its wasn’t a disadvantage considering the smaller guys got the best times in the event!
How does 5×5x275# DLs favor smaller guys? o_O
Khalipa, you’re a beast, man. Congratulations. That looked like one herculean effort.
Props go out to all the competitors in my book, though… anyone who has a first-hand clue about what CrossFit is can only have tremendous respect for you all.
As impressive as this is, its even more impressive that Jason was able to stay within striking distance through the first 3 events that favored the smaller guys! Awesome job everyone! Early prediction for next year. . . .Pat Barber!
Beautiful! Way to CrossFit Jason.
Congratulations!
Hell yea man! Good job
He is dropping late but it doesn’t matter per the rules, maybe it was faster or easier for him to do it that way. The rules didn’t say you had to do any specific type of jerk motion/split or separate the movements, so I guess it’s fine to thrust/push press/press it up like that rather than doing a pause. Definitely powerful. congrats.
whoever is shouting “go Jason go” a million times during this three minute clip I have to say is probably the most annoying person EVER! Kick *** job Jason.
sorry Pat!! Great job this weekend man, look forward to seeing you on thurs. we will hit up a WOD for sure.
