The clean deadlift is a skill transfer exercise for the full clean, which means it assists with the development of a proper full clean, as well as contributing the continued improvement of an already developed full clean.

  • The clean deadlift is a little slower and develops the first pull, while the clean pull develops the second pull and transitions to a little more of an explosive element.

  • This isn't the American or Bulgarian style of clean deadlift, but Chinese. The technique as replicated in this video was taught and supervised by former Chinese Olympic weightlifting coach Jianping Ma. It's no secret that the Chinese crush everybody in Olympic Weightlifting, so we'd be unwise not to learn from them!

    As a skill transfer exercise, it's used to develop the first pull, and the slight reverse lean you see is done in order to emulate the extension that the second pull requires.

  • On the top I would not recommend leaning back as you were. And for training in the olympic movements I wouldn't really recommend this movement either. Starting out its fine, because it allows for muscle memory in the bar path/understanding the movement, but there is no explosiveness involved, and as far as I'm concerned its simply a dead lift with clean grip. Pulls; snatch and clean are assistance exercises that are most benificial to the snatch and clean&jerk. (when done properly)

  • good job big girl

  • @olympicstyles its supposed to be for beginners to the lift

  • what is the difference between clean pull and clean deadlift? I have a program that says i shall do bought, so it cant mean the same.

  • @workoutbox what you said makes perfect sense i dont know why any1 would not be able to see that it's just so clear. thanks for the vids btw looks like you got a great place to train at too.

  • @olympicstyles x2 about leaning back, stand up till your upper body forms a line with your lower body, if you lean too far back you put enormous pressure on your discs. Leaning back is actually worse than rounding your back!
