The Clean. Another Olympic lift with a terrific aesthetic value that looks much easier to pull off than it really is. Relying on timing, proper rack placement, and as usual, a strong base. The Clean is a monster lift.

Clean  1-1-1-1-1-1-1

Casey- 205*
Erin- 135
Todd McK- 100
Delaina- 100
Kathryn- 115
Russell- 205
Paul- (FS) 225
Quincy- (FS) 135
Mary- (FS) 100

Great job everyone. Nice weight Casey, and Russell, and Kathryn. The addition of the squat changes things a bit, huh?

Good Front squat practice Mary, Paul, and Quincy. Another tough exercise that is a big component of the Clean.

At CFSF we include a squat with any of the Olympic lifts unless otherwise specified. If CFHQ wanted us to omit the squat, they'd call the move a Power clean. Unless the word 'power' is in the title, we'll be squatting to receive the bar.

Big THANKS to Kathryn, and Casey for running the rodeo.
