How to Power Clean (Olympic Weightlifting 101)
Need help perfecting the power clean? Dr. Aaron Horschig and elite weightlifter Darren Barnes walk you through a step-by-step process to learning and performing this lift. Key points: 1) Keep your arms long and your elbows turned out to the side (shoulder internal rotation). This will keep the bar close to you during the initial pull. 2) Keep your bodyweight spread evenly across your entire foot. Often athletes will shift onto their toes or back onto their heels during the pull of a clean. This leads to an off balance lift and subsequent jumping forward or back in order to save the lift. 3) Extend! Don't cut your pull short. At the top of the lift you will see extension of the trunk, hips and ankles.
