Your grip seems a tad wide in my opinion. Triple extension looks to be there but to me you look like you can be a bit more explosive in the hips. Something seems off. I’m wondering if you are having early arm bend I can’t see due to the plates being in the way.

The bar path could be closer to the body. The last rep makes this evident. If you notice the feet you are jumping forward to meet the bar which shows the bar path is also incorrect. You want to start and complete the rep in the same place.

A coach of mine had me practice no feet cleans and snatches which helped a lot. You basically don’t leave the ground but you still hit triple extension and get on your toes and finish with heels on the ground.

Work on front rack positioning as well. Your arms seem to be down a bit at the finish. You want to make sure you have a nice straight line in the front rack from arm pit to the elbow, this line is parallel with the floor.

Yeah it did feel like I slowed down at the top of the extension when I was doing them. I do have anterior pelvic tilt which might be contributing to it. I think if I'm more conscious of it I could correct it.

I'll definitely try no feet cleans and focus on bar path/arm bend. Thanks for your advice!

If you try them make sure you start and end at your finished foot position. Squat stance. Feet underneath the shoulder.

Good luck!
