Scaling:
The split jerk allows most athletes to get more weight overhead than any other technique. Newer athletes should spend ample time drilling their mechanics prior to adding lots of weight.
Continue until time expires, adding 3 handstand push-ups each round and 3 overhead squats every 3 rounds.
