The Clean and Jerk is a weightlifting movement that consists of two main parts: the clean and the jerk. In the clean, the lifter lifts the barbell from the ground to their shoulders in one smooth motion. This requires strength, technique, and coordination. After the clean, the lifter performs the jerk, which involves pushing the barbell overhead. This part of the lift can be done using various techniques, such as the split jerk or the power jerk. The Clean and Jerk is a key event in competitions like the Olympics and is essential for developing overall strength and power.
