“The York Combo”

Bill Starr mentions this in his York exhibition articles :

Clean & jerk, then drop the bar into a 10 rep set of back squats, then obviously back over the head, and lowered nicely.

This obviously necessitates good control and lifting within your means.

It doesn’t need a squat rack.

It’d be pretty badass hitting this with good #s (better yet with a power clean and power jerk, that’s my style).

I do have access to 500lbs. How high can I go?

The power clean and behind the neck jerk under fatigue would be my limiting factors.

Go be awesome.

Persistence & Tenacity

P.S. (Cold Air Barbell Club – Fall 2022) I’m now doing this as a power clean and press into back squats
