I've never done power cleans before. Trying to teach myself with Rippetoe SS. Any help appreciated.

  • had to make another comment. last one too long. you tube those errors, watch professionals in slow motions, and read books on it. its one of those things youre always getting better at and always have some room to make improvement no matter who you are.

  • weight is too light and you are muscling it. go up a little in weight so you can see how different the weight feels when done correctly. couple things... 1) fast elbows, whip those elbows around the bar like youre trying to uppercut someone in the face. 2) the bar should no be crashing on your shoulders like it does, sign of muscle with 3rd pull (your arms). 3) get your ass back more.... like a lot more cuz your 2 pull, double knee bend, scoop, pop, whatever you want to call it, is really weak.

  • Your back is fairly straight on the way up but keep in mind it need to be straight on the way back down aswell.

    Like you could do it better.. Maybe you could make a video to back up your claims about your feats of strength? Just stop trolling around, no one cares if masturbation is common among teenage girls!

  • your elbows are too low

  • Shitty form, basically. And don't be such a sexist either. Weightlifting is for girls too, and masturbation is common among teenage girls.

    Waste of space. >.<

  • Very good. I will not break your form down but remember in SS the PC starts from the deadlift. Do more deadlifts get the form cold, it will make your PC a lot smoother like backspace25 said. Keep up the good work.

  • looks good.

    As you go up in weight, arch your back more and really punch those elbows to catch the weight

  • For others to online coach, you must provide working weights and more details about your training. From what i saw you look fine, the faults will only show when you increase the weights.

  • go heavier and when you start push as hard as you can with your legs and keep your lower back arched and tense this will aloow you to clean and press heavy weights...also if you clean and then do military presses, if you lean back a little bit you can probably add 15-20lbs to your presses
