Just realized my foot placement during cleans was sabotaging my lift
I used to set my feet too wide for power cleans, thinking it gave me a solid base from my roofing days where stability is key. After watching some form breakdowns, I saw that a narrower, athletic stance actually allows for better explosion. I spent a few sessions dialing it in, focusing on keeping my heels under my hips. The change felt awkward at first, but last week I finally cleaned a weight that had stalled me for months. It wasn't just about strength, the technique shift made the movement smoother and less jarring on my joints. Now I see how small form adjustments can lead to big improvements, something that applies to my work too. Celebrating this little victory has me excited to tackle other lifts with fresh eyes.
