How to Do a Power Clean & Press 

Get yourself some 10lb bumper plates to put on the bar so you can start easily with a proper deadlift position to start the movement. I’m not far behind you in age and I recently added this great full body exercise to my program. ☝️🥴👍

Because many internet gurus are wrong... this is a push press, not a press.

@@terrystrand It was sarcasm

There are some total shitbags that occupy these spaces.

Underrated comment. Exactly what you'd expect from Rodney "Dongerfield".

The Patrick Batemans

OMG his eyes are creepy AF lol

Pre workout or heavy medication

lmaooo what ahaha

This exercise is EPIC

I pretty much only did this and one-handed push-ups in high school and I got pretty big (for a year or so lol then I got stupid)

it will get you strong AF do 5 sets of 5 and go up 10 pounds every week over time you will be a beast

Bro it ain’t that deep lol…tell you what why don’t you make a video the proper way fucking looney 😂

Wtf kind of comment is this ...

upper pecks with front delts to some degree I believe are involved

Could it be the case that with this exercise you're getting the transfer of kinetic energy from the first part of the movement into the overhead press, thus making the press feel "easier" than pressing the same weight from a static start position? Ie: momentum is doing part of the 'lifting' in place of raw muscle activation

Probably because you’re using leg drive in the push press as opposed to a strict press

Do we put the weight all the way down to the floor at the end of each rep or let it hand at the knees I’ve seen ppl doing both

Not weird. In a regular overhead press you aren't using your legs to drive up the weight. In this you are. You can definitely put on way more weight

​@@kingpotato7183 Yes, that is true. It seemed to me as if a longer range of motion would be more exhausting, but it does of course make sense that the activation of the leg muscles give a lot of extra momentum.

I’ve been doing it that way too.. wondering now if I’ll bend the knees now though, give his way a try, because I do worry about hurting my back with that last part.

You can be training cleans more efficiently though. For instance I can clean (and jerk) 185 but I can only strict press 135 so it just makes sense to train them as different movements...

Right? I was going through vids for a reminder of how to do it from my hs years and i specifically remember needing that hip thrust and upward elbow bend to support heavy loads.

And someone's lower back lol

bro, do you even lift

Its awful lol

No, the problem is literally his clean and press. I don't even do oly lifting an even I know more clean technique than the retards that made this bastardisation of a classic exercise.

if you think there was nothing wrong with it you’re fucking blind bruv

Literally anyone can crank out a sh1tty compound exercise that can't be overloaded for any progression. Let's do deadlift shoulder shrugs next. Great posterior chain activation because your traps will always be able to lift more than your glutes and hams..... Or how about the bench skull crusher combo? What a great way to build that pec deck, because we all know that your triceps are the largest and strongest muscle in the body. Squatmornings? That surely won't hurt your back or regressively overload your quad and posterior chain. All joking aside, if you are going to teach power clean, teach it in a manner where it can be overloaded as the exercise was intended. Or don't teach it at all. This particular goof will lead to thousands of people doing hybrid upright row/arm pull with that extra chiseling movement to the rack position. I shouldn't have to say that this is going to fook someone's shoulder up. But it most certainly will.

they are the sam

They are two different lifts... GOOGLE IT !!!! This is a clean and press: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cPf2KultofQ.html

Correct. That also wasn't a power clean.

Thats not even correct, thats more of a clean and jerk because he keeps bending his knees, you need to stand straight when you press it.

Link please

Im legit trying to learn this technique. What did he do wrong?

Frank Gilligan nothing much, his legs were a little turned in and wonky. It’s not rocket science. Deadlift plus reverse curl plus shoulder press. Only thing that could be wrong was he did a push press style by using leg assistance. That is optional, it just doesn’t offer quite the same benefit as a strict or military shoulder press. Your already getting assistance from momentum and speed so a push press shouldn’t be necessary unless that is your aim.
