“You haven’t taught until they’ve learned.”
Very well said.
I like how he addresses every possible mistake someone might make with regards to form and technique.
Exactly, my power clean went up 15lbs immediately after watching this
You can tell he’s an amazing coach/trainer
It’s a beautiful thing to see a true specialist at work.
Good tips for beginners, not actual oly lifting, the emphasis should be in speed and technique not ques
I wouldn't call him a true specialist. He knows enough to go over the basics with highschoolers. He's not an Olympic weightlifting coach.
@@rylandbraton1460 what do you call when you want to coach speed and technique? I will give you a hint mate… its called cues 🤷♂️🤦♂️🤣 how do you coach speed and technique? By giving what? Thats right.. cues🤫
@@tjcogger1974 This isn't for the purpose of just weightlifting, its weightlifting for athletics, mobility and power...not just standing around admiring your muscles in the mirror...
@@adambarlow81 wait... Do you think Olympic weightlifting and bodybuilding are somehow related? Hahah.
I have watched a lot of videos on proper technique for the clean. This is far and away the best one. This guy is an awesome trainer; I wish I could train under him.
Adam knows his stuff for sure!
What an great teacher. He’s also crazy strong, throwing that weight around like it’s nothing.
The best coaches/teachers are the ones who make you understand in very simple terms because it’s actually often very simple. Amazing instructions. Thank you!
That took forever simple?
I am so thankful for my athletics coach he’s teaching us all of this and we’re in 7th grade
Best clean progression explanation I have ever seen.
Supa
He’s just casually teaching with a loaded bar. 😅🤯
He probably cleans 120kg😂 I don't think 40kg might bother him
I have no doubt this guy was an NCO in the military at some point in his life. Awesome video!!!
I thought this sounded like a good way to teach a recruit .... nothing wrong with clean and simple
He definitely has that cadence good NCOs have.
No that’s called college football
Jesse bruh, he means at one point in his life.
High and tight should tell everything about him..🤣🤣🤣 the type of dude wont release his guys until 1800..🤣🤣
Great video. I love the prep work that you put into young athletes. This will pave how they continue to train for their entire career. Great start to their training to help them maximize their potential.
You are exactly right!
THE BEST TUTORIAL ON POWER CLEAN I HAVE EVEN SEEN!!!! RESPECT TO YOU ADAM SMOTHERMAN AND THANK YOU!!!!!
the best clean tutorial I've seen on RUclips. really makes you appreciate top schools and their sports programs
Very welcome!

This demonstration is excellent, Coach Smotherman. I received like a year of training things to work on in 13 minutes.
That’s a crazy high school weight room
Nicholas Bowen right 😂
Lilly Ghoul nope. It’s a high school. Read the description
It’s not a private school. It is a public school about 35 minutes from my house
@PhyZeik Nope. Its a public school. I went there.
Dorman University
I'm starting to incorporate this again and there's no better place to learn. Excellent detail oriented tutorial. From basic to advanced
This guy is the embodiment of professionalism
Lol. My highschool weight room had one squat rack, some rusty dumbbells, and a leg press machine.
@@fartsniffer1195 no it isn’t that is the strength coach at a highschool
@@c9sa I mean there are highschools in Clemson
@@fartsniffer1195 this is a high schoo
I am going to watch this just before I go to gym. This is some really good breakdown of the clean.
This is such a brilliant video 👏 thank you for talking about how to fix flexibility issues, I've been struggling with my wrists but had no idea to stretch then
I am very impressed how he doesnt even stop talking to take a breath. Power movements are not easy. Very good job teaching!
This is a damn good coach.
Focus on form and safety, absolutely critical with young athletes.
I’m a sprinter at college and I’ve struggled with this a lot as the demos we have had haven’t been great but this 1 vid really helped 👍🏼👍🏼
This is the best video for doing a power clean for athletes I've ever seen on youtube.
This guy is an amazing coach, not to mention athlete - I would be out of breath 3 min in.
This video deserves a million likes
thanks, hope it helped!
Very clear n sound step by step teaching skills he has :) Thank u coach 😍💪
My pleasure!
This was super helpful i recommend it to anyone
Thank you!!!! I’m a cf coach in training. I need to hear this in a 3rd person perspective. Thank you!!
From bottom up instead of from top down is the best advice 💯
This is some world -class coaching.
yes it is!
A wonderful piece of art in teaching. Love it ❤
I may not give up on cleans after all. I am unable to catch or front squat in the power position. I can only do them if I'm "standing tall". This sheds some light on my issue. Thank you.
Jamoke Anderson work on it at a lower weight or with the bar as a warmup and get warm with the movement before going heavier
@@sethmilesss I have been doing more core work since then and am doing much better.
This guy is great! Very articulate and knowledgeable
Awesome teacher.
Wow! Very thorough, yet succinct. I am going to incorporate this tomorrow. I have been doing shotty clean and jerks for too long. Time to tighten my form and work on power cleans.
I LOVE THE clean & jerk!
0:19 Oh shit he stepped over the bar. Regardless...excellent instruction on the progressions. When it comes to cleans, there are do's and don'ts and thankfully had one coach in my life instruct me on these principles. Thanks for posting!
This isn't in Russia.. :P
the stretch tips were great.. I need to do these . thanks
Still using this in 2023. The mobility aspect of that front rack can't be emphasized enough. The TRX, bands , T-Spine, and floor drills for wrist mobility are what made the catch safe for my lower arms as loads exceeded bodyweight.
This is the best coaching video I’ve seen
Excellent breakdown
Awesome coach. Explains techniques in detail.
Excellent trainer
South Carolina high schools have created some top notch training facilities. I got to see the facility at TL Hanna High school, and it was insane.
Wow...great instructional
As an Ohio State fan now I understand why we couldn’t beat Clemson all those years. This guy is amazing.
Thanks tho I'm a freshman rn I'm bad at weight lifting like I haven't weight lifted so thanks dude I'm appreciate your work out technique
Goodluck
This guy... 100 pound bar, not out of breath, talking clearly. Monster
135lbs
20kg + 20kg + 15kg bar = 55kg..
Very sweet of that guy to teach.
Great video! The stretching part was very informative and useful! Thank you!
Excellent instruction. To the point with good techniques. Thank you.
Magnificent explanation,thank you!
You are welcome!
Great video. This guy farms champions.
This guy rules thank you coach
I loved the detail explanation. Thank you so much ☺️
Brilliant brake down of it thanks, great coach that guy 👍🏼
Exceptional instructor
I've been training this lift for many months and still have not been able to get it. I have wrist and lat mobility issues and I have a hard time catching. Thank you so much for this video. It's understandable and reproducible.
Excellent instruction. Thank you
This is golden information
This is HANDS DOWN the BEST power clean progression tutorial on the internet!
you are welcome!
I appreciate you. Thank you for being you man and giving us great tips.
Thanks for breaking the movement down.
This helps so much! Makes me really value the coaches I've had in my career
Ive never seen anyone throw around a bar with 2 plates so casually. Great video.
Thanks coach!
Excellent coach!
Awesome thanks!
Great video! If I may critique just one thing - at 8:29 when you demo the full clean, you're catching the bar at the top of your stance. When you have a heavy load, it's easier to catch it as you're on your way down into a squat. Sort of like getting underneath the bar, rather than muscling the bar all the way up to your shoulders and then going down into your squat.
This is sadly an aftereffect of his way of teaching high pulls. You don't high pull in cleans. The only Pull work you do is to the bellybutton, from there it's all about dropping under the bar. But because he's taught himself and others to high pull he's wasting energy pulling it up so extremely high he doesn't have to duck under with lighter loads.
If we’re getting technical, he really should be pulling himself under the bar since dropping underneath it will probably result in it crashing onto his shoulders and not being able to decelerate and dropping it
@@drakebane9527 can you show us how its done? How would you coach it then?
@@PhiyackYuh can't show, but I have my athletes do Russian style high pulls. You do a regular clean all the way up until you make contact. After that you keep pulling with elbows up and shoulders shrugged slightly but no higher than bellybutton height. That's where you have them hold the position for half a second fully extended on the toes to simulate the final pull of the clean before you're supposed to drop under.
I could also let them do Le Li La pulls (panda Pulls) which are Pulls that look like they go higher but you drop in squat stance before returning to the clean stance in a fluid motion. This however is very advanced.
good coach.
Great efforts and nice demonstration. I struggle all the time with the part of lifting the bar by hips. I hope you have a good clue how to make it easier so that I can increase bb weight
Very good content and no ads.
Perfect tutorial.
Great Podcast As Always Jay and Matt.👍👍
WOW. Coach thanks. This helps me tremendously!!!
Great teacher!
I hate deadlifts. I pay strict attention to form but I always get sciatica. But these bad boys...well, they make me fitter, faster and leaner. I've never had an injury from a power clean, and I doubt I will now thanks to this tutorial! Brilliant stuff.
Great video, excellent explanation, great activities and progressive routines. Keep sharing and keep up the great work
Great video!
Awesome teacher. Breaks down the details, and even goes into flexibility/mobility foundations.
Great Job Explaining. It has really helped me.Thanks
What a great teacher 👍👍💪
great video
thank the Lord ....progressions....and you eliminated a lot of the "cheats" that are out there....here in my town I run into tons of teens being taught the "cheats" and really poor form...great job and great video
very good video, i was invested the whole time, amazing tips
Brilliant!!!!!!
Fantastic, thank you Adam!
Excellent teacher!
Nice video very informative
Great coach!!!

Insane that this is free!!!
Beautiful explanation ❤️
Great Video. Thank you!

I like the way how he stretches his rack position mobility...
jeez, it wasn’t this complicated when i was in high school. just watched the coach do it right a coiple times and tried to copy it
Excellent explanations here. No matter much you think you know as a CPT there is always more to learn. Man I love fitness ha.
Thank you, sir !
That was Awesome!!!!!
Very thorough!
