*updated critique added below* While doing cleans, I seem to be having some technical problems that could use a new set of eyes. If you have any advice on what I am doing wrong in the cleans, it would be appreciated. The lifts are numbered for reference. I got a response from a USA Weightlifting coach. This is what he said. Not a bad lift, but there are a couple of things to concentrate on to help it be "easier". Your start or get set position is good (really concentrate on flexing the wrists or getting the knuckles to the ground and keeping your arms straight as long as possible). Your hips move up first and the bar moves away from you. The travel is around your knees rather than pushing your knees back. This is bad as when you get to the second pull, you are chasing after the bar-- despite pulling it in toward you (your back is tight and looks good). When you get to the rack position, the bar is a few inches in front of you causing you to have to chase after it. Does it feel as if you are leaning a bit forward when you catch the bar? Then, your back gets a little loose as you stretch to reach the weight. Back soreness or injury as weights go up. OK, that being written, what to do to correct it? 1. Push your feet in to the ground longer at the start of the lift, concentrate on pushing in to the platform and driving your knees back. Your back stays very tight so, you should see an immediate improvement. An exercise to help with this is to do Russian deadlifts or deadlifts ...
