3RM Clean and Jerk

There will be a 2 minute transition between DT and Part 2.
Athletes will have 6 minutes to establish a 3RM Clean and Jerk.
At the call of 3, 2, 1 GO the barbell can be loaded to the athletes first attempt with collars on the end of the barbell. The barbell will start on the floor and will be cleaned to the shoulder. Power Cleans, Squat Cleans and Split Cleans are permitted. The rep is credited when the athlete shows full extenstion of the hips and knees and the bar is supported in the front rack position. Any style Jerk will follow the Clean as long as the required finish position is achieved. The rep is credited when the barbell is locked out overhead with the arms, hips and legs extended with feet together and in line. The athlete will then perform 2 more reps, touch and go style.
The barbell CANNOT rest on the floor or the set will not count and must be attempted again. If the athlete misses the Jerk, they can reattempt as long as the barbell is reracked into the front rack position. Control of the lockout must be shown on all three reps for the set to count.
