push jerk and pullups

Push jerk, 3 reps, 5 sets

155, 165, 175, 185, 165

I'm finally starting to grok this motion. In the past, I'd done it with my fingers under the bar, between the bar and my shoulders, and my elbows down. Now, I've figured out that my fingers need to be outside my shoulders. This forces me to drive more with my legs to get the bar off my shoulders, as I can't just push it off my chest now. I've also found this to be far easier on the wrists.

Alternated with 4 sets of 12 pullups. First three sets were L pullups, last set was strict slow regular pulls
