Reply With QuoteYou're pushing the bar away from the mid foot each time you bring your shins to it. Be gentle with the shins and rock back off your toes before you pull. Don't move the bar. Also, try to get into the rack position sooner. Think "fast elbows".

5x3@145 fifth set
Working at keeping the bar closer.
Is my stance ending too wide?

Your set up needs work. The powerclean sets up just like the deadlift. Make sure you follow the 5-step process. You're letting the bar roll out of position.
For the power clean, you also need to jump and jump hard. You're pulling the bar up to rack with a reverse curl, not jumping and making it fly up from momentum.

Richmond, TX. I’m self taught on the clean, but going to meet with Andy Baker next month for help with it. He’s the closest coach in my area.

That's good. Anyone can self-learn the clean, but it's way easier to get some in person coaching.
