Today’s Olympic Lifting Accessory work continues our work on Cleans. Â Last week, we saw some technique work. Â This week, we will work on some strength building to help improve our Squat Clean. Â The Squat Clean is the most powerful way to pull a barbell from the ground and catch it on your shoulders. Â If you have not developed the skill yet to catch the barbell in the squat, then catch in the power position and drop into the front squat.
