Clean Shrug

Clean Shrug - Exercise Guide

Step 1

Load a bar with appropriate weight, making sure that you do not overload to avoid improper execution of the exercise. Hold the bar with a slightly wide hook or double overhand grip, with the bar hanging in front of your upper thighs. Assume a shoulder stance, with your torso straight and slightly leaning forward.

Step 2

Raise your shoulders toward your head as you breathe out, keeping your arms and the rest of your body stationary. Hold the contraction at the top position, then slowly lower your shoulders back to starting position as you inhale.

Step 3

Do enough reps to complete a set.
