JERK BLOCKS

Our Range of Jerk Blocks

At Factory Weights, we understand the daily demands of both home gyms and commercial fitness clubs. This is why every product meets strict ISO 9001 accreditation standards. Backed by years of hands-on industry experience, our team knows what it takes to equip tough training spaces.

No matter your training intensity, our jerk blocks are built strong to take maximum impact off your body and gym floor. Designed for high-volume drops, they give lifters a stable platform to safely hit clean releases and heavy overhead presses. Pair them with quality gym weights to create the perfect setup for building explosive power without destroying your gear.

Here’s what you can expect from our durable jerk block selection.

FW Hex Lifting Blocks

Elevating your starting position makes heavy pulls and deadlifts far more manageable. Finished with a moulded FW logo, our rubberised units cushion loaded bars to protect both your equipment and gym flooring. 

Built-in handles make them easy to carry, stack and adjust to the exact size or height you need. This range offers two distinct options to build your setup:

1. Standard interlocking base: Bevelled edges snap together to form a secure, wobble-free platform for safely performing cleans, snatches and partial deadlifts. Grab a pair to set up a complete dual-stack station.

2. Flat top cap: Designed without interlocking teeth, this cap creates a smooth, level top surface. This provides a great landing area for box squats, step-ups and explosive plyometrics.

Note: Flat tops do not interlock and should not be stacked directly on top of each other. All blocks featured on our website are sold individually. 

Stackable Jerk Boxes

Skipping the tiring initial pull lets lifters hoist directly from the rack position, channelling all their energy into perfecting overhead movements and heavy drives. Setting the bar on top blocks at preferred heights allows athletes and beginners alike to focus on technique without wasting strength resetting each rep.

These adjustable jerk blocks provide a robust, flexible foundation for targeted weight training, making them ideal for:

• Block pulls

• Floor presses

• Partial deadlifts 

With a versatile size profile that adapts to any training station, they also double as durable plyometric bases for step-ups and box jumps.

Olympic Lifting Blocks

Trading in wood platforms makes a world of difference during high-volume Olympic lifts. Perfect for heavy drops, these durable modular platforms absorb shock, vibration and noise, pairing seamlessly with your Olympic weightlifting equipment.

Engineered from heavy-duty recycled crumb rubber, these jerk blocks for weightlifting training feature raised interlocking teeth that slot tightly together. This keeps your setup completely stable under heavy loads, while offering a compact size built for tough spaces.

Recycled Rubber DC Blocks®

Designed by Olympian Derrick Crass, these US-made modules are built from 100% recycled plastics to eliminate the heavy clatter of traditional plywood setups. Offering extreme impact durability and UV resistance, they feature interlocking crenellated sections that key together firmly. This makes them ideal for building a custom-height set for heavy pulls and barbell drops.

Choose from two distinct styles to build your setup:

1. Stackable base: Offers a versatile platform size for pulling, deficit deadlifts and overhead work.

2. Level surface capper: Provides a smooth, flat top surface for plyometric jumps and box work.

Jerk Block FAQs

Find answers to common questions about our jerk blocks for sale here.

What equipment can I use to refine my jerk technique? 

While high-quality barbells are the standard for Olympic jerks, integrating other tools helps build stability, power and symmetry. Elevating these movements with dedicated blocks provides plenty of versatility, removing the unnecessary strain required to cleanly lift the bar off the floor each set.

Choose from these key training styles:

• Dumbbell training: Excellent for fixing unilateral imbalances and developing explosive overhead stability during single-arm or double jerk drives.

• Kettlebell training: Ideal for practising fluid double kettlebell jerks, building wrist alignment and conditioning fast rack-to-overhead transitions.

• Barbell training: The gold standard for heavy jerk splits and dips, allowing lifters to handle maximum loads off blocks.

What other strength training accessories pair well with jerk blocks? 

To get the most out of your weight training routine, you can use jerk blocks alongside other key gym accessories to improve safety and performance.

• Deadlift bar jack: Speeds up loading up weight plates between sets so you can save energy for heavy block pulls.

• Lifting straps: Provide crucial wrist support during heavy overhead jerks and prevent grip fatigue during high-volume pulls.

• Powdered chalk: Keeps your hands dry for a secure grip, alongside our liquid chalk option for a clean, zero-mess base coat.
