"Hi, I'm going to show you how to do a squat with a single arm clean and press. First we're going to set up for our squat. Feet need to be no wider than shoulder width apart. Shoulders are down the spine. We're going to take your right arm, put it behind your back. We're aiming for the inside of your right foot. Clean it, and press it straight up. So again, your left arm is going towards your right toe, pull straight up, push it up overhead, drop it back down, touch. Things to think about. You want to make sure your knees don't go over your toes, you want to keep your back as flat as possible, chest lifted. As you clean up, try not to let your wrist cock. Keep them really straight, you're just going to pop it, push it straight up over your head, drop it down, and down. So your motion is going, one, two, three, four. We want to do between ten and twenty reps, and then switch arms. The hand is behind the back, to support and stabilize that back so that you don't bend and curve the spine. So, once you get that ten to fifteen reps optional going up to twenty, then switch your sides. Again, things to think about, don't let your knees go over your toes, keep your chest up, back straight, clean it up, watch your wrist, push it up overhead, drop down, and straight down. Eight to ten pounds, and between ten and twenty repetitions on each side, and that is how you do your squat with your single arm clean and press."
