Barbell Full Clean

Expert Advice

Focus on generating power from your hips and legs to drive the barbell upwards. Ensure you catch the barbell in a solid front rack position with elbows high to prevent strain on the wrists.

How-to-do Steps

  1. Start with feet shoulder-width apart, barbell on the ground.
  2. Squat down with a straight back, grip the barbell slightly wider than shoulder-width.
  3. Explosively stand up, extending hips and knees fully to lift the barbell.
  4. As the barbell reaches chest height, drop into a front squat position.
  5. Catch the barbell on the front of your shoulders with elbows high.
  6. Stand up from the squat position.
  7. Reset and prepare for the next repetition.
