just break your back

Why are you doing power cleans? You're not on SS are you?

Max Aita has a good intro video with MegSquats.

Hop on dem youtubes

>You're are SS you?

Ok

maybe he just wants a great compound exercise with functional strength

Why not learn regular cleans? Why not clean and jerk? Much more muscles involved and probably the greatest compound of all time

Don’t.

Great tits.

yeah she's a perfect mommy gf

what are you struggling with?

related question: for the casual gym-goer is there any benefit to doing power cleans over clean pulls (i.e., extend but don't pull yourself under the bar)?

unless you're specifically training for oly weightlifting power cleans are fine especially considering you're squatting anyway.

not OP but I can power clean easily except the catching part, I seem to only be able to catch it into OHP position

watching these helped me the most of any resource when I was learning

So basically power snatch?

Rip's method works pretty well

nah like the beginning of the OHP when youre taking the bar off the rack

They're lighter and thus a bit less stressful overall.

Also heavy high pulls will tend to jar the shit out of your joints if you can't just drop the bar.

Can you get in the catch position? If so, practice doing a lot of cleans with a moderately heavy weight, you will eventually get it right, trust me. If not, start working on getting in the catch position first.

Your mum's got a heavy power snatch

Practice each part of the motion individually when you warm up

>Off the floor into high pull 1x5
>Hip extension into catch 1x5
>catch into squat and back up 1x5

Then, put it all together

going to start practicing once I build my home gym(soon I hope)

are they a good trap builder? the explosiveness gains and also traps are what make me learn them

>are they a good trap builder?
Yes, I much prefer doing explosive high pulls for traps than shrugs, because it helps your explosive lifts and also I feel like I get trap growth much faster out of power cleans than shrugs and shit

I'm still a light weight noob, but in my experience they work traps well. In fact, overloading a power clean so that you can't catch it on the shoulders is considered a shrug variant.
