^ Squat jerks are touchy, just gotta be technical and consistent, and balance plays a big factor IMO. He almost CJd 219 (over the 85 world record) here. The clean looked easy and the jerk was close: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h6wOHTeRI-k

Bro if you beat me to 160 I will be too soniamdissappoint.jpg in myself. Pound for pound you're already way stronger than me, I have 60lbs over you and you're only 10kg away from me in the back squat lol
But sure dude I'm down. Once we get the permanent Poverty Weightlifting gym set up you better pepper your angus brah, gains will be incoming on the regThe Long Road to Competition... My olympic weightlifting journal:

IMO, Kendrick lacks the trunk and shoulder flexibility to properly externally rotate his shoulders in the overhead position. He has incredible, freakish strength but the stability required to be putting weights overhead consistently is not there for him, unfortunately. I speculate that he is a 170/210 kinda guy if he could stack the shoulders properly. A perfect example of the difference to compare is take a look at an Apti Aukudov snatch or jerk sequence and compare that to Farris'. Apti has some of the best positions in the game right now. Again, this is all my opinion, but take a look and judge for yourself.
Best comparison I could dig up in pictures, sorry. Watch some vids and you will see what I mean. Apti has a rock solid overhead position.Subscribe to The Strength Project :

Agreed. Kendrick should just switch to doing regular split jerks. As DaTruth´s video shows, he clearly has enough power to drive the bar up but once he drops down into the jerk, the bar is just too far forward and squatting up something that heavy when holding it overhead requires a lot more strength. I know this sounds weird, a recreational lifter trying to preach to one of the world´s top athletes but I really feel that this is the case.
Strength + Speed = Power
If you never fail, you aren't truly pushing yourself to the limit. If you never push yourself to the limit, how do you know what you're truly capable of?

i have freakish external rotation of my shoulders, which i think is one of the reasoning i took to power/squat jerking so quickly.
Kendrick looks like he is capable of lifting so much more than he does (i mean with gym numbers, not because he is a swole black guy), i think in the next couple years we might see him make some progress.
also has anyone ever done 5x5 with jerks?
