2 Hang Power Cleans (below the knee)
2 Hang Power Cleans
2. Strength Prep
Give athletes 10-12 minutes to work up to a heavy complex of 1 Power Clean + 1 Below the Knee Power Clean + 1 Hang Power Clean. Grip fatigue will be the major limiting factor on this complex, as athletes cannot drop the bar until the Hang Power Clean is completed. Cueing athletes to breathe with each movement will help keep athletes as organized/strong as possible across their attempts. This strength session should focus on smooth pulls and fast hips with a solid receiving position. We want athletes to lift heavier, but not at the expense of losing form.
