CrossFit - 16 May 07

Erik: During the clean you are pulling with your arms far too early. Really focus on letting the arms relax until the very last moment during extension. Watch Melanie, she use her arms only to pull herself down under the bar. The arms need to be like ropes. You must also narrow your jumping stance your feet have no where to go in the landing but too far away.

Melanie: Nice work - the only thing I notice is that you tend to drift to your toes every once in a while and this puts you off balance. You are also kicking the bar out away from the body, imagine that you are leaning back and pulling the bar over your chest during extension. This will keep the bar in close and prevent that forward jump.
