Clean And Press

This total-body, gutsy move will bring out your inner Olympian.
Start
Clean And Press
  1. With a barbell on the floor in front of you, place your feet approximately shoulder-width apart.
  2. Bend down and grasp the bar with an overhand grip, making sure that your knees don't pass your toes.
  3. Lower your butt until your thighs are parallel to the floor, keeping the weight in your heels without arching your back.
  4. Contract your shoulder blades, and explode upward, extending knees and hips. Lead with your elbows and allow the weight to rest in front of your chest, palms facing up, elbows close to the body.
  5. Bend knees slightly, and extend through your hips, as you press the bar overhead.
  6. Slowly lower the weight down to your waist and then to the floor. Repeat.
