Performing the: A Step-by-Step Tutorial Barbell Hang Clean
Bend your hips and knees slightly while keeping your back straight, lowering the barbell to just above your knees; this is your hang position.
Quickly and powerfully extend your hips, knees, and ankles (as if jumping) while simultaneously shrugging your shoulders and pulling the barbell upward with your arms.
As the barbell reaches its maximum height, quickly drop under it by bending your knees and hips, catching the barbell on your front shoulders while keeping your elbows high and pointed forward.
Stand up straight to complete the lift, then lower the barbell back to the hang position to prepare for the next repetition.
