Exercise:

Mistake

The knees are moving too far forward and the heels are leaving the ground during the forward movement of the knees (ankle dorsiflexion).

Solution

Push the hips back, keep the weight on the heels and full feet, and/or less bend in the ankles. The hips should be above the ankles or behind them when looking side on. The force should travel through the heels first and can then continue through the balls of the feet.

Description

In the jerk or the push press, the feet should remain connected to the ground when the knees move forward (ankle dorsiflexion).

This mistake is usually paired with the hips going past the ankles at the front, which can be observed when looking side-on.

A quick breakdown for clarity:

  1. Standing straight
  2. Bending the ankles
  3. The knees move forward
  4. The knees move back
  5. The heels are driven into the ground
  6. The weight is pushed up

The issue at hand occurs in step 3.
