Overview
The split jerk is a weightlifting exercise that targets the quads. It is performed by standing with your feet shoulder-width apart and holding a barbell in front of you with your arms extended. You then bend your knees and lower the barbell until it is just below your knees. From there, you explode up and extend your legs, simultaneously pushing the barbell overhead. The split jerk is a challenging exercise, but it is also very effective for building strength and power in your legs.
