Question about power cleans

[traprater]

The gym I go to doesn’t have bumper plates, Would my starting point for warm-ups and work sets be doing more of a hang clean until I work up to using 45’s?

Thanks for all your help, Rip.

Just like the teaching progression in the book, start at the hang.

That’s what I thought but just wanted to double check. Thanks, Mark.
