Lewis Neal sets an #LSU record with a 391 pound power clean. And there's video

Looks like my warm up set

I could have sworn that Andrew Whitworth did more than 400lbs.

I didn't think that was really a power clean but rather a full olympic style clean. Power clean receives the bar more in a standing position with somewhat less bend of the knees. Still very impressive

Power clean form:


Looks exactly like what Neal did.

ETA: nah, this is just clean form, not power clean. My bad. Everyone give boxcar a slap on the rear and tell him sorry.

Mother of God

what he did would be called a full clean, or Olympic clean, or just a clean. All of which are different from a power clean. There is also such a thing as a hang clean and a hang power clean.

Wish there were more videos like this. Always interested to see the lifting technique of our players and also the weight they are pushing.

that's not power clean form . Power clean would catch the bar at the 7th frame (skipping frames 8&9) and stand from there.

Link?

I mean, I'm pretty sure that players on the LSU football team know what the correct form is.

ETA: actually, boxcar is right. But still, why call out a technicality.
