Hanging Cleans

[Shades McCool]

Wow, I have just dropped power cleans for hanging cleans. The burn I get in my shoulders is amazing. Does anyone else in here do hanging cleans and how do you like them?

I do them, I like the explosivness they build.

 

[Shades McCool]

Right now I am in love with the burning they cause in my shoulders.

Is there a site or does someone have a vid that demonstrates them?

I don't feel it in my shoulders at all, I think your form is different to mine
Its all traps, quads and posterior chain mostly.

I have a vid of me doing em - although my form isn't perfect - yet, but better than most

Proper form - except she doesn't fully extend her hips, she does a little leg flip

My crappy form from 2 weeks ago - I'm much better now.

I have a better video of a Oly lifter doing it - let me edit it first

Notice how the Oly Lifter form differs so much from a more atheletic form.

Ohhhh, they look fun as hell.

What day should I throw these in on, if I were to do them? Back?
