I figured I would post my videos of the lifts so everyone can tell me what I’m doing right or wrong. This is my 2nd time performing the lifts, I would love to try and do an Olympic meet sometime next year and I want to have the lifts down pat by then.
Clean: you appear to pull the bar almost entirely with your arms. You will never get a huge clean this way. The power must come from an explosive extension of the hips/thighs. Watch videos of different lifters to get an idea of this. You also catch the bar in a power position, but ride it down to a full squat that looks somewhat uncomfortable. I think you may also consider narrowing your grip a tad or releasing some of your fingers from the bar as it rests on your shoulders. It looks to me like your grip is too wide for your current level of flexibility.
Jerk: you do more of a push press with a split stance, where you begin driving the bar up with leg power but then finish the lockout by pressing it out with the arms. This is a no go in competition. The rules state that the bar must be received at arms length, with no press out. after your dip/drive focus on pushing your body underneath of the barbell to receive it on locked arms. Not only will this make your lift legal, but you will also find that when you get comfortable, this method allows you to put the most weight over your head. Also, you should recover from the jerk by moving the front foot back first, and then moving the back foot forward.
Snatch: you appear to pull yourself under the bar pretty fast here, which is good. However, you start the first pull with a rounded back, which is no bueno. You also let the bar loop quite far out in front of you. One of the most important things is try to keep the bar as close to your body as possible. Moving into an overhead squat with a fully loaded barbell is quite a precarious position. If the weight is just an inch too far out front or behind, the lift will be lost, and the less deviation there is of the bar from this spot, the more likely you are to be able to hang on to it.
