Stability in this position is better forward and backward because the base is large in that direction. But the base is narrow from side to side. Even small movements by the athlete in a sideways direction can shift the common line of gravity of athlete and barbell outside the periphery of the base. From the final leg split position of the jerk, the weightlifter must bring his feet together, stand erect, and control the barbell for 3 s. Obviously, controlling a heavy barbell in this position is difficult. The slightest shift of the barbell out of line can cause loss of control and failure of the lift.
