    Default Problem I've encountered with Power Cleans

    Ive just recently started power cleans. I think I have pretty good form exept one thing. When I land from the jump, my toes land a little pigeon-toed (toe's pointed in a bit.) Naturally I am not like this and I was wondering if this is a problem when doing PC's, and if so how I can fix it. Also I do not have access to a camera to tape me.

    I haven't seen this happen, but it can't be good. Foot placement problems during the clean are best fixed unloaded with many reps, and then focused on very hard with light weights, to change the motor pathway. This usually requires a coach's help.

    Ok thanks. Ive just started Power Cleans, so I have yet to do over 67 pounds yet. Ill just keep working on them light weight, and see if the football S&C coach can help me with my form. Thanks.

    I'd be interested to see that myself.
