    Apologies for the double post. I posted this in the technique section, but haven't got any replies. Must be something I said. Long story short, I've started to power clean after a period of hang cleans to improve form. I'd appreciate any comments or suggestions. Thanks.

    I only see two things wrong here. One, your set-up is inconsistent, and is usually with your hips a bit low / shoulders not out in front of the bar enough. This variability is what causes some of your lifts to go forward, and some to go backward. Note the very first rep you shove the bar forward with your shins. This is wrong.

    Second is your stance, which is wide. Your stance should be narrower (prob. about an inch) with toes turned out.

    Thanks for reviewing and commenting on the video Steve. I will try and make the changes you've suggested.
