There has been controversy regarding "full" Cleans, or Squat Cleans, and Power Cleans. Some coaches say a full Clean is simply a missed Power Clean. Other coaches arbitrarily add the squat unless the word 'Power' is in the workout prescription.

The inclusion of the squat with either the Clean, or the Snatch changes the exercise profoundly, increasing ROM, strength, and energy requirements. At CFSF when we Clean, or Snatch, we always add the squat unless otherwise specified. Today it paid off.

Olympic lifts for reps can get ugly. Remembering the cues we've talked about, resetting at the bottom, and staying focused are key. Good job guys. You all hit it again.

Great job puppies. From the Deadlift set-up, to getting some lifts, all looking good. The Deadlift is the first pull of the Clean, and one of CrossFit's staple exercises. Thanks for your hard work. Now you see why doing your homework pays off. Tight hams? Good luck getting into a good set-up... Homework makes everything at CFSF easier and more efficient.

Thanks for another great day at CFSF. Thanks for all the terrific efforts and good fuel.
