Barbell Hang Clean Below the Knees

Instructions

Steps : 1.) Start by standing in front of a barbell with your feet shoulder width apart and gripping the bar with a double overhand shoulder width grip. 2.) Lift the bar up so that it is slightly below your knees, keeping your back straight, then extend through your hips and knees forcefully driving the weight upward and shrugging your shoulders to your ears at the same time. 3.) After performing this motion, flex your elbows up and out bringing your body down and the barbell up towards your shoulders. 4.) You will have the bar positioned in a front squat position with your elbows pointing out securing the barbell in place. 5.) Once in position lower your body to a bottom squat position to ease the tension and recovery process of the previous motion. 6.) Keep your knees bent and torso upright to help support the weight. 7.) Slowly and safely lower the weight back down to the starting position and repeat for as many reps and sets as desired.
