    I'm adding in power cleans and want to make sure I'm starting off right. Any tips or feedback will be greatly appreciated.

    Kurt, these look pretty good. Let's see how they look when you add some weight to that bar.

    Beautiful facility, by the way.

    Thanks! Here's 115 lbs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udsdFJs0ODQ

    That was the last set, sorry for cutting off the top of my head in the video. I was pretty fried by that point so if those are acceptable then I'm probably doing well.

    It is a great facility, they literally have everything except power cages. Very nice people running it too and I can walk there from my hotel.

    Not bad, Kurt. Remember to jump and land straight up and down - not backwards.

    Great, thanks! I noticed I was landing a few inches back, not sure what's going on there. I'm also hitting the bar with my chest, right in the sternum. It left a pretty ugly bruise on Tuesday but seemed better today.

    Oof that hurts. On the plus side you're keeping the bar close. Just a hair too close in this case.
