15 Burpee Broad Jump for max distance

There is not time component to this WOD, we'll be measuring total distance covered over the 15 jumps. For the jump to count, you have to stick the landing.

Below is a video of Chad Vaughn with a 175 kg clean and jerk at the 2010 Arnold Classic. First in real time, then in super slow motion. Watch it. More than once. Think about the cues you've heard over and over again and watch him hit them. How much work do you think it takes to have a C&J look like this, regardless of load? It takes a lot of time and practice to get the oly lifts down. We know that sometimes frustration can set in, and we get it. Be patient, keep working with a focus on technique rather than load, and you will improve!
