Powerclean Weightlifting Exercise Instructions

Power Clean Technique

Purpose of Exercise: An excellent exercise that stresses almost every muscle group in the body. It will primarily develop the trapezius, spinal erectors and most middle back muscles. Secondary stress will be felt in the biceps, forearm flexors, glutes, brachialis and thighs.

Execution of Exercise: Assume the same position as in the 'Deadlift' except do not use an alternate grip, have both palms facing you. Pull the bar up explosively as in the deadlift and when the bar reaches your mid thighs shrug the weight up as you simultaneously drop under the weight and effectively reverse curl the weight to your shoulders, whilst standing erect, from the finish position let the bar drop to arms length as you bend your knees and lean forward to place the bar on the floor. Repeat for the desired number of reps.

Important Points: Always remember to keep your back tight and look up. It is VITAL on this difficult and technical exercise that someone with good form and experience demonstrates correct technique and observes you so as to offer advice. The power clean lift is a back and leg exercise and not an arm exercise, remember this and it will serve you well.
