Late to the party but as you’re preparing for your sprinting track meet is there anything about your training load/style/volume etc you’re looking into changing as your focus shifts or much the same?

Power cleans
Like Angus said last time to upload on IG stories, I did. Up by 2.5kg from last week. I truly believe I’m messing up the pull and it is becoming slow. Took a side angle. https://www.instagram.com/stories/anshuttam.mishra/3492455117527429705?igsh=MWo5OXNyeDdla3E5Nw==

Hey man, the bar speed looks decent and will come along in time, but the catch is still quite high even for a power clean though and you don’t really dip down after the end of the pull. Once the second pull has finished you want to drop down into a (half) squat, you seem to just be bending your knees rather than squatting down at all if that makes sense. I think you may also be making the same error I was in the comment Riley dropped under my hang clean about not doing a first and second pull

@Riley Burke that’s a good point about catch height. With cleans I think a good bit of my admittedly limited learning (at least in terms of the catch) came from doing weights that were challenging enough that I had to dip down fast enough to catch it or I wouldn’t make the lift

Dk if this is a controversial comment to drop, but I think that “interference” is definitely worth considering in the context of things like sprinting/jumping when that’s a clear focus. In terms of just enjoying training and for gen pop I’d agree it’s a negligible effect and a damaging distraction/nocebo. I think there’s definitely a level of generality that’s a minimum for health, but in the context of just improving sprints/jumping, I’ve found reducing the amount of metcon sessions and longer runs I did left me feeling way fresher.

That being said I’m really curious to see how the GPP combine will show how feasible it is to get the best of both worlds: a strong 5k, good hops/speed, and solid strength numbers seems a bit mythical to me taken altogether but it’d be awesome to see someone do it

Hang clean 90kg/200lbs @ RPE idk
Title says it all, whilst oly lift training clips are going around here would appreciate any technique advice on my hang cleans from the good GPP folk. Think I usually send the bar a bit forwards during cleans for whatever reason and move a bit forward to make the catch, so not sure if that’s worth trying to address - maybe a carryover from projecting forward in starts fm track? Getting the push from ankle extension at the end definitely not feeling natural yet. I put RPE idk because I don’t like repping hang cleans so I have no clue how many I could do - going from front rack to the start again and then resetting for another rep just feels like a good 30% of my energy gets wasted catching the bar after I drop it from the front rack, any suggestions welcome

@Riley Burke Thanks for the feedback Riley, I think what you’re saying definitely makes sense as to why the pull here felt more awkward than it had with my cleans off the floor. With the hang cleans above I was trying to isolate the second pull exclusively rather than starting with the first pull from a hang position. In which case you think it would be better to cut the ROM of the hinge to just at knee level rather than going below if that’s the type of hang clean I’m trying to do?
