Where everyone is an athlete…

Here’s an exercise for developing power…

If you want to develop powerful hips in order to gain that extra yard of pace or to be able to out jump your opponents…

Give this a go!

This exercise is a derivative of the olympic lift, the clean

If you adjust your grip so it’s wider it can be used as a derivative of the olympic lift, the snatch

By working from a hang you’ll already add tension to the muscles of your posterior chain (back, glutes, hamstrings)

And by explosively extending the hips, knees and ankles you’ll drive the bar up whilst performing an upright row movement

The key to this exercise is to move the bar quickly

Be aggressive

Be explosive

Pop those hips

and snap the bar up to the chin

Enjoy
