A 16-year-old volleyball outside hitter can dip straight with an unloaded bar but, when asked to split jerk, steps only two inches and catches with both knees nearly straight. What is the best teaching progression?
Prescribe maximal push presses until the athlete has enough upper-body strength.
Have the athlete practice only power jerks because split position is too advanced.
Use footwork drills and jerk balance from the rack before adding a full dip and drive.
Ask the athlete to dip deeper so the bar travels higher before the split.
