Not a good score I know. I have some issues with heavy power cleans during wods. When I get tired either my feet spread out too wide and I catch like a frog, or my body unconsciously drop in a deep squat and the barbell crush me. It seems I can’t do a intermediate catch. What drills could I work on?

Ever tried ‘no feet’ power cleans? Extend but don’t move your feet … start with your feet closer to your landing position. Sometimes that can help with better extension and teaches you to get under the bar. With the squat, I like the addition of a lot of the plyo stuff we had in the blog in months before – box jumps landing high versus in a squat

When you do cleans work on catching higher then riding down into the full squat. Catch and hold at the position you tend to struggle with and build strength in that weaker area. Also think about pulling the shit out of the bar once you reach hip extension. That sometimes helps 🙂
