Anyone still do these? I used to do them for football in high school and college, but have'nt done them in a couple of years. I'm still convinced that their one of the best exercises for building strength and muscle in the upper back and traps. Not to mention they were awesome for explosiveness in any sport. I'd feel a little out of place being the only doing them in my gym now, though. IP: Logged |

alot of highschool ballers work out in my gym and they do them alot...i used to...do you let the weight touch the ground or let it hang mid thigh?....i might start back... OH YEAH!!! what i thought was a lower back problem is really my gluteus minimus, the little muscles on either side of your tail bone...i seem to strain them anytime i do squats....at least i haven't wrecked my spine...

We used to bring them down to mid thigh, or hang cleans. When I was on the weightlifting team in high school, we did the clean and jerk. Now I get clean and jerked by my girlfriend on a nightly basis. IP: Logged |

Bill, it actually the opposite of the clean and jerk. First she jerks it then cleans it. She's still a little hesitant about the sex thing being that we have only been seeing each other for a few weeks so I have been settling for the oral. IP: Logged |
