DB Clean & Press, Pullup: 10.09.02

For Time: 21/15/9 of

1. DB Hang Power Clean and Push Press with 1/6 BW DB (i.e. 180# man uses 30# DB)
- Right Arm
- Left Arm
2. Pullups

Important:
1. The HANG portion of the lift means that DB starts hanging above the knee. The POWER portion of this lift means that you catch it in a relatively upright position. Remember that this is a hang power clean and press.
2. Pause between the finish of the clean and beginning of the press - don't forget that the push press starts with a quick dip and drive from the hips.
3. "Jump" the weight up. Jump so that your hips are being used to displace the weight vertically. Do not turn this exercise into an upright row and shoulder press. JUMP!!!
