NOTES:
Jerks:
** each set starts at the top of the minute - so for the 12 - I paced myself 12 jerks in 1 min. switching hands at the top of the min, to do 12 jerks in 1 min on the left side.... I continued to pace and switch hands at the top of the min.
** I rested with the kb overhead instead of the rack position to make it more challenging.  By the 2/2 I was holding the kb overhead for :25 seconds, for the 1/1 I held the kb overhead for :25 then switched arms at the half min. mark to finish the  workout in 23 minutes.
