Oly Class 140831

THE CLEAN

Starting From Where We Left Off Last Week
On any exercise the lifter should perform no more than 2 reps a minute.

Emphasizing The Pull (And Prepping The Shoulders)...
"A lot of people rely too heavily on the powerful hip extension and not enough on the legs in the first place"

  •  1 High Hang Squat Clean + 2 Strict Press (7 Min)
Emphasizing Speed Through The Middle...
"I see a lot of people slow down once the bar passes their knees, when in actuality you want to be building up speed"

  • 1 Hang Squat Clean  (7 Min)


Putting It All Together...
"The goal is to accelerate the bar through the entire lift"

  • 1 Full Clean Squat Clean (5 Min)


CORRECTING POSTURE IN THE JERK/DIP (AND SOME ABS BY G)

Strengthening Movements, Which Reinforce Good Form

The First Drill Stresses Proper Position


  • Dip-Pause-Push Press (7 Min)

This should help with those droopy elbows we see so often.

The Second Drill Forces You To Maintain Proper Position Under A Heavy Load

Athletes should use 85%+ Loads, No need to be explosive on positive portion.

  • Dip-Pause-Hold (4 x 5 Reps) (7 Min)

PVC Split Jerk Warm-up For Proper Foot Position and Practice

  • 2 Split Jerks (7 Min)
