Maybe it's me but it looks like your hips aren't love enough in the start position and your back isn't straight. Also i think your ass is coming up to fast. Though I might be completely wrong. :)

@ShotokanKarateRules

no, that all sounds about right.

if one is having problems wit CLEAN PULLS, work on deadlifts and heavy squats first to get your power up and going.. then move to CLEANS...

@Vik456

Solid advice

Your arse is going too low, you will ruin your knees. Try doing it like ur sitting on a chair.

@unclelez

Then I would hurt my tailbone.

I choose knees, as tailbone is too close to my nuts.

Some of my feedback on technique:

- Straighten your back by taking a big breathe in prior to pulling

- Stand up with the weight, don't pull back

- Drop the clean pulls, you are ingraining bad pulling technique with them. Instead, do high power cleans.

- Extend with the barbell, push hips forward with all your power.

- Catch the barbell like you mean it, be solid on the ground. The barbell is owning you every time you catch it.

Have a look at my blog and Youtube videos to get a better grasp.

terrible..

[BostonBakedBeans100]

you should be dropping your hips a bit faster..

try a narrow grip that allowed me to increase my max clean to 165 pounds like narrow as in a little bit narrower than shoulder width

U CAN NOT LIFT PROPERLY, BITCH NIGGA!

Why do you keep dropping the weight o.o

[vic2340]

i Think its great, it simply shows the different ways to do cleans. It makes me kind of mad though because at my college they have rubber weights and the same type of mat yet you are not aloud to drop the weights. This is a school with a track team, A wrestling team and a soccer team. these workouts are crucial for me to get better at jumping and i can even do them

@lukesta9207 i didnt, you must practice with the bar either before or after your workout to really get your flexability.

[mousecatcher1]

@thelegendz Yes. It's your receiving position. High receiving position = power clean. Low receiving position = full clean = squat clean. "Low" means hips below parallel (knees). When you see just "clean" it's whichever one you want.
