How do I start doing cleans?

Published in Weightlifting 1 min read

To start doing cleans, focus on proper setup and technique.

Here's a breakdown:

  • Setup:

    • Crouch down.
    • Grip the bar with a clean grip (slightly wider than your deadlift grip).
    • Chest over the bar.
    • Arms straight.
    • Wrists down.
    • Keep your spine neutral – avoid hyperextending or sticking your butt out.
  • First Pull: Initiate the pull from the floor to your knees.
