    There's a lot going on here.
    Start with getting your back organized and in extension before you take the bar out and keeping it that way.
    You're overdoing the hips-back cue. TUBOW would be good for you.
    Post another video from a more useful angle once you work on those things.

    Do you have any useful cues for putting the back in extension coach?

    Hi coaches i hope this is better, i tried to implement proud chest, hopefully it is somewhat correctly done. I have a feeling that light headedness may be due to bar position, in sets 1 and 3 the bar was placed a little lower and I did not feel light headed at all, however set 2 i set it a little higher and then felt a bit woozy, which didnt go away until i got to my working sets for power cleans, thanks for your time

    Your back is better, but not there yet.
    See how you unrack the bar by bringing your hips forward? When you do that you're losing a bunch of the organization you gained during your setup.
    Get your hips under the bar before you unrack and take the bar out by extending your knees.

    Also TUBOW. For real.

    Gotcha will tubow. ASAP, but what is explicitly wrong with my knee position, sliding or too vertical or too many faults to count 😂

    It's hard to tell from this angle, but I don't actually think your knees are sliding forward very much. They look more like they're collapsing as you start the ascent. Knees out hard!

    They're not moving forward enough.

    I don't see anything in here TUBOW would fix. He doesn't have accessive knee travel out over the toes and he's doing a decent-ish job of having his knees set in position 1/3-1/2 of the way down, and on the way up I'd agree with Dillon that if he's having any problems with his knees it's collapsing inward rather than moving forward.
