PVC Jerk Press

BeginnerBarbell

The PVC jerk press is a teaching drill for the jerk, using a light pipe so you can learn the dip, drive, and catch without real load. It primarily challenges the shoulders while coordinating leg drive with the overhead press. Practicing with a pipe locks in timing and technique before you add a barbell.

How to do it

  1. 1

    Grip a PVC pipe with both hands, wider than shoulder-width, overhand grip.

  2. 2

    Stand with feet just outside shoulder-width and rack the pipe in front of your shoulders.

  3. 3

    Dip by bending your knees slightly, keeping the pipe in the front rack.

  4. 4

    Explosively extend your legs and press the pipe overhead in one motion.

  5. 5

    As it rises, bend your knees to drop underneath and catch it with straight but unlocked arms.

  6. 6

    Stand your legs to full extension, then lower the pipe back to your shoulders.
