Russian girls don't want to do jerk. They think that this is damaging for woman's body.
What do you think about this?

I don't see why would one arm jerk be dangerous to a woman's body. I think it would be good for balancing the training.

Here's a woman jerking 36kg kettlebell.

The concern is that it is damaging to the breasts if it is dropped on them.

We don't drop the bell on our "Breasts". We drop the bell so the impact of the drop is typically between our forearms and biceps. There are a few women that are built (bigger breasts) where it probably isn't feasible for them to do the sport because they cannot get a good rack position. I feel these women are the exception and not the rule. Most women can safely do One Arm Jerks. I personally have been doing them for 3 years and they've made my snatch lockout much stronger.

I hope the Russian women will reconsider and try it.

Thanks.

Yes, I know that people?s notions of what is healthy or not, are often hard to change.

Still, I think that Russian girls should reconsider and take up one arm jerks. That would make training and competition more varied and fun. That will then attract more ladies to kettlebell lifting.
