Instructional: Dumbbell Clean

Extend your hips fully, stand up hard!
Arms stay completely straight until you are fully extended
Dumbbells stay close to your body
Dumbbells do not swing in front of you
Drive up fast! Drop down fast!

Just wanna say … THANK YOU! Such a great instructional video.

This is the best video on the internet on how to perform a dumbbell clean bar none!

[alisonutley]

Only db clean video that made sense! I actually got the hang of it! Thank you!

[beegsjgil]

By far the best DB clean video I've seen yet. I'm now a subscriber. Thank you for your clear instructions. Making it more about the movement and less about you. Great job!

As a few other people have said, you've explained this, step-by-step in a clear and complete manner. I've looked over other videos which fail to explain this in any way nearly as completely as you have. I'm doing this exercise as part of an online workout regimen, so I don't have anyone to teach me proper form. Thank you so much for this!

Such a great and in depth explanation. I actually think this is the only real vid on this lift with dumbbells that is correct.

One of the best and complete videos on this important exercise. You make the complexity of it simple and clearly explain form issues to avoid. Many thanks!

Well, I see I'm a little late with this comment, because several others have already said it. This is by far, bar none the best YouTube video out there about this exercise. Thank you for taking the time to record this and share this. Wishing you the best of success.

The Fitbod app added this exercise into my workout regime and it looked like there was more to it than their simple 5 second video clip demonstration that comes with the app. This was the first video that came up when I searched for “dumbbell clean” and so I watched it and I really think this video couldn’t have more perfectly explained this exercise. Now I am going to practice this at my house until I get it down right and then eventually will put it to use at the gym.

This was VERY, VERY helpful. I'm just going to practice this with light weights until its very ingrained. Thanks.

[georgeiliescu]

Very good explanation! This step - by - step approach really demystify this complex movement. All the details and necessary checking and corrections are covered, explained and exemplified clearly and intuitively. Thanks!

You're the man. Superb vid. Subbed

[YimmyT]

[faribaakbar]

[JeOrillaza]

WOW 1st time to do this! thanks for the very detailed instruction!

[rosalinacanlas]

That's what i'm talking about...instructor gym.... Very nice demo...its clear....to know the proper lifting... Very simple but is so effective... !👍

[johnsond]

Great video. What’s the recommended rep scheme?. The internet is all over the place. My best guess is lower such as 3x5 as it’s an explosive move…

[jiff]

Thank you. This is a tough exercise to master. Very helpful.

Excellent teaching video! There's so little information on proper training with dumbbells out there
