This is like 1000 million times better instruction that anything I have found anywhere for any movement. I am gonna be patient and go step by step, make sure I have a great foundation.

I love this guy, I was doing an upright row when cleaning, im so excited to practice my deadlifts and cleans tomorrow. Then get my push work out in for the day

Fantastic! I got tired of bruising my knees because of my terrible power clean technique. I was somehow jumping early enough that I'd bang my knees straight into the barbell. I switched to hang cleans to remove that possibility. Now that I see some really good video coaching, I think I can relearn the power clean but with good technique.

I love cleans. Helped me to increase my deads. Very hard for me to learn to do correctly but when you do get right, you wil know immediately. This is the best example I have ever seen.

I've watched dozens of videos and this is the best explanation of the why's of the clean thanks

spot on, beautiful instructions, well done

Great stuff Mark, thanks. Olympic lifting in America should have been taught decades ago.

Damn Mark...u kinda look like Tank Abbot of the early UFC. That dude benched heavy too 😬😜😜. Great tutorials btw! Thanks for sharing.

Pronation internal rotation... Rippetoe you a smart man :D

In regards to arm pulling: (sometimes it helps me to understand WHY a thing is the case)..... remember that the objective when catching the bar is to catch in on your deltoids. If you put your hands into a rack position, then move your elbows in and out, you'll notice that it changes the position of your shoulders. Elbows stay in to ensure that the deltoids are forward and ready to catch the bar. This is my amateur but logical interpretation.

So I said in another post that I would no longer just criticize but try to offer some constructive help. Turns out Mark is not really that bad a guy. The reason that last lifter jumped forward is not because he started his pull too soon. In order to see what I'm talking about you'll need to replay the video at 0.25 speed. Start the video at 28:25. At this exact point the lifter makes contact with his thigh just above the knee - it does look like he starts the pull early. But he actually does not "jump" until the bar is level with the bottom of his shorts. This happens in a fraction of a second so the actual time will still read 28:25, which is why you need to replay at a slow speed. At 28:26 the lifter starts the jump amd this is where the error happens. Again where talking fractions of seconds but a fraction of a second before the clock hits 28:26 you can see that this lifter's knee angle is almost vertical. This means that he cannot effectively use his quads to impart vertical force to the bar. He has no choice but to shift his legs forward and bump the bar forward to get any movement at all on the bar. Right at 28:26 you can see the separation of the bar and the lifter. His heels are off the ground indicating that the center of gravity of the lifter-barbell system has shifted forward. From here the lifter then goes into his "jump," but it is now too late to effectively impart upward force on the bar. This is one of the key reasons why the high-hip start position is not optimal. I have seen this in several other videos that Starting Strength has posted on how to do the Olympic lifts. With high hips, you're starting with a very closed hip angle and a very open knee angle. On the way up, most lifters will open the knee angle even more to the point where the lifters' legs are practically straight at the start of the second pull. With no force being contributed from the quads, the lifter's only recourse is to move the bar up with hip extension only. This causes the bar to move forward and swing out. With a light enough weight, the lifter can pull the bar back toward him or her, or in this case compensate by jumping forward. This will work for light weights, and strong lifters can even move some appreciable poundage this way. In the beginning it might even seem to be an effective and efficient way of cleaning because "leading with the torso" and using all hip extension and little to no knee extension is a very common beginner error. I did it too. But at some point this technique will cause progress to stall because the bar moving away from the lifter is the cardinal sin of weightlifting. At the start of the second pull the lifter must be placed, the whole foot must be in contact with the ground, and the quads should contribute quite a bit to the pull to give the bar a vertical trajectory. Take this comment in the spirit it was intended. I am not trying to be an asshole here and I am not bashing the high hip deadlift-jump-and-shrug method for the sake of bashing the method. There are real downsides to this method as demonstrated in this and many other videos.

@@armouredoutlaw1537 On the squat, when I am driving up from the bottom, I can't keep my upper back and the bar from tipping forward and collapsing/rounding. I guess it's what people refer to as a good morning squat. On the deadlift, it feels like I'm not able to get my upper back flat (what some describe as wrinkle the back of your shirt) and when I'm lifting a weight that's heavy to me, it feels like my back is rounding. Also, I seem to have reached a limit on how much weight I can lift on all of the lifts, but it's not that much weight (although it feels like a lot to me). On the squat I'm at 180 lbs, 3 sets of 5 reps. On the deadlift I'm at 205 lbs, 1 set of 5 (really more like 5 sets of 1 rep because I have to reset my distance from the bar after every rep). On the bench I'm at 165 lbs, but can only do 5 sets of 3 reps at that weight. On the overhead press I'm at 95 lbs but can only do 4 sets of 4 reps at that weight. It's frustrating because it feels like form is suffering even at these low weights. I've already gone through a reset back in August and slowly worked my way back up to these weights and now it feels like I need to do another reset, but I didn't get any higher on the weights than I was back in August. Plus, I'm getting some joint pain in my hips when squatting and in my shoulders from the overhead and bench press.

18:50 Bro what the heck

1: No hook grip = limited weight can be used. 2: At the start the hips are too high. In that position you can not properly push of the floor with 1st pull. 3:. Shoulders should be a) above the bar or b) just in front of the bar, Not way out in front of the bar in setup/first pull which will cause the bar to loop and you get a clean and long jump 4: There is no "jump position". It's called the power position and it's the results as you sweeping the bar back, as your shoulders will follow and your knees will re-bend slightly naturally as the bar position changers from out by your toes like when you set up to above the center of the foot just before extension. 4. The elbows do go up because your pulling yourself under the bar after triple extension (even in a power clean) 5. Elbows are normally high and straight or slightly down and out in the rack. Never in. 6. Did not teach the athlete to lock shoulder blades, lock lats and set shoulders neutral in set up. 7. As bar goes from floor to knees the back angle should be in same angle as setup. Two out of five stars.

I’m sure there are some things you can take away from here. However, there are more experienced people to learn the power clean or clean from. Rip isn’t the best source. The way he has them rotated the elbows is actually conducive to the high pull he wants to avoid and is totally unnatural. An easy test would be to hold your arms at your side exactly as he describes, elbows out, and imagine pulling the bar up. You get a high pull type of bend. Now rotate the elbows to face directly behind you while holding at your side, and pull up, you get a bend that is directly back, which allows the bar to travel closer to the body, and sets you up perfectly to rotate the elbows under the bar as discussed in the video.
