Here is what I call a Textbook C+J. I am not suggesting it is a “perfect” lift, there is no such thing. I feel a “perfect” lift is relative to the individual athlete. We are all just a bit different. One size does NOT fit all. So long as a person’s technique meets my 3-point criteria; safe, efficient, and comfortable, then it is a good lift. This video shows an athlete I train whose technique I felt was very “textbook”, in that it just happens to correlate with many books, articles, and curriculum of various certification courses. You will notice how I breakdown all the positions as she lifts
