    You've got an early arm pull. Lock your elbows keep them locked until you finish the jump.

    Also, make the damn things heavier. You could reverse curl that. I want to see a weight that actually requires you to jump.

    P.S. That's a nice gym; where is it?

    Don't look down so much. Set your eyes on something 10-12 feet ahead of you, or if there's nothing there then just pull your chin up. Looking at the ground under you will hurt your ability to clean when the weight gets difficult.

    Thank you for the feedback The Legend. I will add weight to the bar and lock my elbows.

    The gym is Conviction Fitness in Chicago. It is a pretty sweet gym, my wife and I are lucky. It has three platforms/racks and two additional squat racks. It also has a prowler, rower, tractor tire, and other alt equipment. There are a couple of guys who train there that use the SS model. Overall a very good gym.

    Thanks for the additional feedback Armen.

    1) Pull chin up more
    2) Keep elbows locked
    3) Add more weight
