Clean 

1-1-1-1-1-1-1

View video of the clean

Full cleans are one of the very best exercises for any strength athlete.  They are beneficial because they involve so many of the large muscles of the body in a dynamic fashion.  When performed correctly, full cleans work the hips, legs, back, shoulders and arms.  And while these groups can be strengthened with other exercises, none do so in the same manner.  Primarily, full cleans force the nervous system to work much harder than any other exercise—except for full snatches.  ~Bill Starr

    Of note, the last failure resulted in a broken radius and ulna. Brian, feel free to make fun of me in my absence.

    Wish you a fast recovery Bryan. Nice work the last few months man, you have come a long way… Rest up and as Evaline said, you’ll be able to work legs and core…. BACK SQUATS!!!!!

    185-205-220-235-245(F)-245-255

    Nice work today on a complex, explosive movement.. Keep working on the form..

    This was a big accomplishment for me… knowing now that I can Rx “King Kong”… with a little more practicing the accuracy of pulling under the bar…

    135-155-165-175-180-185(PR)-195F probably could’ve pushed farther but was a bit drained from Fran.
