Overview

The power clean from blocks is a weightlifting exercise that targets the hamstrings. It is performed by starting with the weight on blocks that are about kneeheight. The lifter then bends over and grabs the bar with an overhand grip, with the hands about shoulder-width apart. The lifter then pulls the bar up to the shoulders, keeping the elbows close to the body. The lifter then stands up explosively, extending the hips and knees. The bar is then racked on the shoulders. The power clean from blocks is a challenging exercise that requires a lot of strength and power. It is a great exercise for building strength in the hamstrings and for improving overall weightlifting performance.
