One inch dip hang powercleans

[coolcolj]

Holy crap, do these murder the hammies and calves. Dip down one inch and slam it up, bar will be very close to body off course, rack with straight legs.

I was using 135lbs with these today, sets of 5. You can bang em out like a piston. Up and down - cyclical power. Tons of hips speed, full calf and traps extension required.

I think this could be a super exercise to develop short distance sprint accleration.

Short distance sprint acceleration is what my sport is all about. I'll have to give these a try.

Did you video them?
