I know she’s been doing this for years but mechanically, she makes the movements look completely effortless. Its pretty intimidating and pretty damn impressive. I want to START where she’s at. Im gonna watch this video everyday for a week and then starting next week incorporate these drills into my routine, until i look as efficient as her.
Been working on "barbell complex" activity. Every single rep requires focus on form. This video reinforced exactly that. Thank you for what you share. DRIVE ON!
After following you for years, I finally decided to join a weightlifting club and I'm hooked. Unfortunately fractured my ankle when I was out with the kids but can not wait to get back to it. Thanks for all the amazing content x
Thanks Kris! Great to see all those reps - starting with the bar and working all the way along. It is good to see the time spent working on the drills at the light weight before building. Also, nice to see the journal & pen for keeping track of your training.
Hi, ex Oly WL here. I get this vid is old, but here's some advice for whomever comes across it that's built like Mrs. Pope - and myself, i.e. with a shorter torso and longer femurs. As you see in the video, we use more our relatively stronger back in a super long and fast hip explosion, than our relatively weaker, longer legs in a rather slow and "painful" raise from the "hole" of the front squat. She also talks about the "premature" second pull herself, A COMMON PROLEM for athletes with her - *our* - anthropometry. Also, notice the relatively high hips in the starting position. The *cure* : start with _lower hips_ , and a more vertical torso, EVEN IF THIS IMPLIES YOU'RE NOT OVER THE BAR with your shoulders in the first pull. It's a mere geometrical thing: femurs are long, torso is shorter, you _cannot be_ in front of the bar with your shoulders, like people with longer torsos and shorter femurs, unless you bend much more forward - like she does. (It's the same with squats, too) But If you start more upright, regardless of whether you "cover the bar" with the shoulders, then it's *easier* to be in the right spot initiating the 2nd pull: you'll be "residually" more upright to begin with. THIS ALSO MEANS YOU WILL EXTEND LESS in the 2nd pull, but this isn't bad: you'll be *way* *faster* in pulling yourself under the bar to catch the clean. It seems counterproductive, I know, but it works. Gabriel Sincraian also talks about this issue he himself had in the clean. THIS IS ALSO THE REASON why she has a strong snatch: a snatch needs a more powerful and complete hip extension, and the back angle from pull to catch is identical (like that of a back squat): the timing and the control needed in the pull under is less impactful, which means the snatch is done _just as well_ starting with higher hips and with a longer back pull, as with a more common low hips, more vertical torso position at the start and at the 2nd pull, that - when done like this - puts you in a "front squat" (or "high bar" back squat) position in the catch. I know, it's a bit technical, but I have been aware of these this issues for decades, because I learned WL back when bar contact with the legs was forbidden (and the lifts looked more like Mrs. Pope's) so that later on, I had to change ALL of my positions, and ballistic movements to get to the "newer" version of snatch and C&J.
I’m a 46 year old man and I hope to get as strong as you but I’ve got a shattered clavicle with titanium and I had a separated shoulder. I can power clean 205lbs and 185lbs clean and jerk and I am 185 pounds. It’s strange that I want to be as strong as a woman but you are one of the strongest in the world.
Thank you for all your great advice! I've been lifting weights since 1972 but just got into olympic style movements over the past year or so. Love the complex movements and techniques. I just workout here in my garage, so nice to have you as my coach on my pad device to keep me using good form. Great job on the format and content of your instruction. Best Regards.
That is a non steroided woman working at maximum. She looks fantastic and is as strong as a bull. This is a real dedicated athlete showing us her hard work and results. Thank you.
Pause at 2:27, then watch the shrug that helps her start the movement again - even before she begins with the leg drive. I've had some success recently with some of the young people that I've worked with by telling them to go ahead and start their shrug at the knee, their hips will catch up before the shrug is completed at the top of the movement. I think that cue helped them to do exactly what you're saying here - keep the quads engaged and their hips back a bit longer. I've had them doing pulls from the knee, but I think I'll take them about 2-3 inches lower - so they are just-below the knee.
Hi Kristen, I am one of your followers. I am new to exercise, (and weight lifting). I have been using some 1" standard 7' barbells that I inherited from my father. I didn't understand that Olympic Barbells had bearings in them to allow the shaft to rotate like during a clean or snatch. I just learned this, and you should make a video about this. Thanks, Mathew
Wow, you are really strong; 110kg for clean is up there! I’m still struggling w/75-80kg for 3. I stumbled into your channel but glad I did. Don’t be too hard on your shoulder position; it was just barely behind occasionally. Your content was super high quality, informative, motivational and the filming was just as high quality. I really like your gym/studio. I am just a beginner in Oly lifting (about 18 mos) but my form is improving session to session with help from my trainer and great videos like this one.
Your first pull starts with your torso over the bar/back angle more flat than lots of lifters I've seen...ever started with straighter posture? Push your knees though the window harder before the bar comes to hips. I think you'll clean more than 240. I got my chest up. Ilya Illin style and it put 40lbs on my clean
Another great video! Thanks Pope! Definitely going to give these a try! Please cover exercises to work on shrug in third pull. I’m on the struggle bus.
Inspirational. New to this so I’m grateful to have seen your channel as one of the first to view. Hope to work on my technique and fall in line with your form! Kudos!
Thanks for this Kristin. Found the vid by chance. Just got into lifting and did my first cleans last week! Needed to incorporate more of this type of work into my training.
LOL at all the thirst in the comment section. This an excellent tip. I injured my right shoulder doing dumbbell cleans, so I'm definitely switching back to barbell. Will try these at very low weight for a bit to see if my form improves.
Filepe Daniels stretch when you can and try to take tension out of your pec minor; these always pull my shoulders out of form making my shoulders hurt.
Omg I have been stuck at segment cleans for awhile now & the cue of driving through the legs was what I was missing. I didn’t understand the purpose of the movement at first but this video was so helpful! Can’t wait to get back in the garage 😂
Great video thanks Kristin. Just getting back into olympic lifting after a few months of lockdown and still having trouble getting my hips to extend with the clean. I find the snatch much easier as the bar sits in my hip crease with the wide grip
Great video, really helpfull. The clean is one of my main movements right now and I know I have kinda the same problem over the knee, so I Will try this!
Great drill, I did three or four rounds of three working up and then in the middle of the workout did a regular set of cleans and I immediately felt faster, better turnover. Tks!!
Nice! This is what I was looking for. I had a bad habit of coming up from the ground and stopping at the deadlift level around my thighs with my legs extended then I would push the bar up with my thighs (I thought I was pushing the weight up with my legs and shrugging but how could I with my legs extended) and then basically doing a reverse curl. This pause at the knees allows me to still be in the squatted stance before pushing up from the ground with my legs combined with the shrug before the elbow flip. Thank you!!!
Great video, of course the girl is easy to look at, Kristin you should post the weight that you're lifting, Me personally I love to see that. I am pausing to check it out lol. A blue and green on each side is 80kg and 177 lbs. Last lift was 92 kg or 202.4 lbs !! Tough lifts for a 120 lb woman!
Was that 200 lbs you put up at the end? Dang girl, that's impressive. I can't put up 200 yet. I can do 180, and I can rep 140, but I haven't been able to clean 200 yet. I'm pretty much a beginner and my form is rough. It's such a complicated movement. I'm starting closer to the floor cuz my cheap weights are smaller than Olympic weights, but that's no excuse. I just can't quite get under 200 on the clean. I know I can press it, but cleaning it is another story. Watching your perfect form is great help and I'm going to incorporate your tips. Thanks for the inspiration.
110kg is what I lifted today, a repeat of an old C&J PR. Unlike you though I am 100kg and a 172cm stocky male. My 110kg was a PR from 2020 before the pandemic (have been avoiding big well equipped gyms and lifting what I have at an allotment for the Covids - at 38 I'm getting on a bit and have asthma etc and have avoided it so far), I relifted it today (in an N99 mask, lol) and it is the second time I have lifted it. My technique is pure shit, just chuck the fucker up as an explosive row, because I lack shoulder mobility and can't frontsquat so all of my lifts are basically extreme powercleans followed by a 'jerk' version of a clean and press. Thanks so much for the tips. I hope to be disciplined enough to be nearly as strong as you in a number of years!
The one song "yip yipped" at me more than a chihuahua with a Napoleon complex. Side note: awesome video! The advice was extremely helpful and I plan to start incorporating it into my program! Thank you!
I came across a quote that seems fitting. It's "in sterquiliniis invenitur." Loosely translated, it means what you're looking for is where you least want to look.
I see how the composure starting pull affects the contact point. I pull my power cleans like deadlifts mostly because i have trouble with thigh contact from the power position (My long ass legs mean i have long forward knee travel and a very tight window for contact once i begin the second pull) and i can generate enough power from the superior leverage. Its lazy and my bar contact leaves me with bruises. Im gonna try to improve my timing and work on hang cleans again. Good video.
ALERT to novice : That level of reverse-arch on back(hyperextension) will break your back if you don't have enough spine muscles like uploader. if you are not skillful, you must maintain straight line your spine for safety.
i know literally nothing about oly weightlifting but that hyperextension must be not the most efficient, mostly when it comes to bracing. My lumbar would instantly complain if i tried to deadlift extended that hard
@@pisk64 honestly, i also do not know what is benefit of the extention. mostly that is crucial when heavylifting. i just didnt want to say the uploader's form is a bad.
@@kimmoth1 tbh i looked at the video again, her lumbar actually does seem neutral, in slight extension, it might be decieving angle and just pure amount of posterior chain POWER
that's exactly what I was going to comment... I'm more or less new in Crossfit (around a year) and I struggle A LOT with that fking hip movement and watching that back arch makes me think she will break in two in a wrong movement.
@@naay72 Part of it is that she has very well developed glutes. This can make it look like there is much more pelvic tilt and lumbar curve than is actually there. Her form is generally very good.
Just out of curiosity, would you mind elaborating on the hyper-ached back that I've noticed through out your stances. I have a feeling that you may be over loading with that stretch leading to a strain in the lower back (lumbar region). I've had numerous Orthopedic Drs and DPTs advise on keeping it straight, as if there is an imaginary stick from the glutes over the back and ending over the head. Fortunately and out of coincidence the personnel that have treated me happened to also work on NFL athletes as consultants and team doctors so I took their word for it and so for so good - other than having a hip strength of a 90 year old that needs constant attention. Asides from that, I'm looking forward to utilizing these tips in the next clean session. Looking forward to your response. Thanks!
hyper-extending the back in a proper clean power position, allows the bar to travel more upright as you generally have to move your knees out of the way more to keep the bar in a straight bar-path on the way up with a straighter back. if the lumbar region is tight, and not rounded the other way, there is no way you can "over-load" the lumbar region as the natural motion of the lumbar region under weight would drop. this is a common misconception when it comes to comparing a proper deadlift to a clean pull. (clean pull = shoulders in front of the bar, knees out, back should be arched with scaps retracted, with head in a locked neutral position.) the majority of athletes in the NFL are not utilizing proper technique with their cleans, it's merely an accessory for them. hope this helps.
@@stonedstoic That sentence makes literally no sense. Hyperextension means you are extending muscles past their optimal range of contraction, that means you are deactivating muscles (that you need to use) because a neutral spine is proper form @AngeryGeek Production
I want to know about the bar a weights to get. I've never done this stuff and can't afford expensive bars and such. So may have to save for good ones. What is good bar size for that? Can I use same size for bench press? What's an inexpensive suite set to start with until I can afford better?
Atta girl, down with the snatch. Haven't lifted weights or worked out for years, always hated leg days and cardio. So I'm anti working out pretty much, until I start seeing the after workout flex. Not looking forward to losing my tummy, that's my trouble spot. Great legs girl, beautiful.
MAAANNNN I need to get to this level. I'm very tall and I find it hard to keep my form on heavy squat cleans because I have long femurs. Makes the angle of my torso in relation to the depth of the squat tilted forward, which makes it hard to hold onto the clean.
I know she’s been doing this for years but mechanically, she makes the movements look completely effortless. Its pretty intimidating and pretty damn impressive. I want to START where she’s at.
Im gonna watch this video everyday for a week and then starting next week incorporate these drills into my routine, until i look as efficient as her.
i definitely didnt come here to improve my clean, left here improving my clean
SAAAAME!!! Haha

Thank God I found you! This is very helpful and you're really good at breaking things down. Great job!

Go girl ! You’re awesome
I have to try this, record myself, thank you, i will definitely try
Wow this is amazing!!! Love you power!! 😍
Can you please create a tutorial of how to improve the power jerk. Cheers!
Just discovered your channel! Awesome vids keep em coming.
Just wondering what in my search history spirited this recommendation.
One word: snatch
Same here. I was looking at drywall repair videos and this came up. However, I think I can tough it out and watch this. :-)
probably "pawg"
Damn, she's strong!
Well ya she’s a powerlifter that’s also on some sort of SARM or gear. Makes a huge difference.
Kristin Thankyou ...... I think I see where I was going wrong with my Clean technique
3:51 yes i think i understand niceties of movement.
To the knee...
i am grateful for a home gym and women
I’m a new fan! Great work great info !
This is great....I'm going to use this to help my son this summer...thnx
I came across a quote that seems fitting. It's "in sterquiliniis invenitur." Loosely translated, it means what you're looking for is where you least want to look.
Love that, fantastic stuff
I see how the composure starting pull affects the contact point. I pull my power cleans like deadlifts mostly because i have trouble with thigh contact from the power position (My long ass legs mean i have long forward knee travel and a very tight window for contact once i begin the second pull) and i can generate enough power from the superior leverage. Its lazy and my bar contact leaves me with bruises. Im gonna try to improve my timing and work on hang cleans again. Good video.
Strengthening the weakest link is the best improvement. Embrace slow improvement, it's still improvement.
Get you some....killing it as usual.
Nice technique and drill, thanks!
This is really cool! Thanks!
Definitely will give this a try ! Keep killing it❤️ where are your leggings from ?
I prefer the snatch as well...
before or after clean and jerk?
I like how you explain things, I’m trying to get better at all things CrossFit.
The.. angles are very nice thanks to the cameraman :) Liking them all for sureeee with this continuing!!
Awesome vids gorgeous.. I am gonna try it.

Atta girl, down with the snatch. Haven't lifted weights or worked out for years, always hated leg days and cardio. So I'm anti working out pretty much, until I start seeing the after workout flex. Not looking forward to losing my tummy, that's my trouble spot. Great legs girl, beautiful.
MAAANNNN I need to get to this level. I'm very tall and I find it hard to keep my form on heavy squat cleans because I have long femurs. Makes the angle of my torso in relation to the depth of the squat tilted forward, which makes it hard to hold onto the clean.
Damn inspirational 🙏
Ok, I’ll try them out👍
Five second pauses.. I can just feel my back frowning at me..
I felt my back already just from the thumbnail...
You are a Professional 👍👍👍 I love it 🥰
Very impressive, that's some crazy power.
KICK ASS FORM !!!!! Respect Kristin.. I am going to start applying this tomorrow.. Thank you for this video
I much prefer the snatch too.
The floor sounded like it would break Everytime she threw the weights
nah. its made specifically to take that beating.
Great advice I love you home gym I have one too but it's not as fancy.
i’m gonna be honest,i never cleaned so i can’t tell the difference between the wrong and the right.Can someone let me know what she did different ?
I prefer the snatch over the jerk.
Àwesome lifts your one extremely strong young lady keep up the good work !!!!
I like how she fix the camel tow with the stitching. Cool
toe? I think the foot of the camel is cloven and, like, has two parts? It's a toe. We're not towing - dragging our camel behind a truck.
Good info, I also really like that training room!
When do you decide that you need a weight belt? You're form is amazing
