Hang clean: how to do it
1 of 5
Bar in front of your thighs
Starting position
Stand hip-width with the bar in front of your thighs, grip just outside your legs and hinge with a straight back until the bar is just above your knees.
The movement
Extend your hips and knees fast, keep the bar close, catch it on your shoulders with bent knees and stand, then lower it to your thighs.
Most common mistake
Don't pull too early with your arms, extend your hips and knees first and keep the bar close to your body.
