Before I understood how to keep my shoulders over the bar I really struggled to produce a lot of power in the clean and the snatch. This lack of power comes from not being able to keep your foot pressure flat while you pull the barbell off the floor.

This idea of staying over it will help whether you are doing CrossFit or Weightlifting. And training the top of the knee position can really help not only with the power clean but also with other movements too like the deadlift and the kettlebell swing.

  1. I always feel like I'm doing it wrong, so are you supposed to use your hips to help it bounce upwards?

    Or is your hips thrusting forward into the bar unintentional but still helping the bar with momentum?

  2. Arms not fully stretched at 0:03. I mean, I do powerlifting, not Crossfit, but I imagine that is the way to get a bicep tear at higher weights in Crossfit, as well.

  3. The Mike was picking up static and echoing due to the size of building, Mike was set up behind you ??
    A bit distorted to hear every explanation clearly.
