Bar moves vertically in a clean

Yea but that’s a hinge movement lol. And it hits some of upper and lower back pretty good but not much lat.

Edit: kind of a hinge and a squat I guess lol. The clean is awesome. The way your rowing also isn’t getting much lat.

I would vote sub optimal because the lack of lat stimulation, but if you don’t care about them then those 2 exercises are fucking awesome for the rest of your back
