Kinematic Comparison of Successful Split Jerk and Unsuccessful Frontward Barbell Drop Among Japanese National-Level Male Weightlifters
These results suggest that moving the barbell backward widely is one of success factors of the split jerk, which may have been influenced by the trunk movement associated with the hip extension motion. In addition, rapid knee flexion during the dip phase may reduce the likelihood of a successful split jerk.
