"The clean requires and develops enormous strength, flexibility, power, speed, accuracy, agility, coordination, and balance. The movement is as complex and nuanced as any movement in sport and can only be improved, never fully mastered." –Greg Glassman in "The Clean," published in the CrossFit Journal in 2003 👉 https://journal.crossfit.com/article/the-clean-2 | CrossFit

The clean is a pure bit of functionality. The clean is simply pulling a load from the ground to the shoulders, where frequently the object is being readied for lifting overhead. With the clean, we take ourselves from standing over an object and pulling it to moving under it and supporting it.
