Jerk blocks are handy for working on the Olympic lifts, so Phil and Becky show you how to construct a set of blocks (these are also pulling blocks). In Part 1, we specifically cover how to build the stackers, and we'll cover how to build the top block (or "topper") in Part 2 as well as how to add the finishing touches in Part 3. See below for Parts 2 and 3 as well as the materials list for this video.
