 Likes tight rubber Member 2981, 11067 posts SQ 242.5, BP 192.5, DL 330765.0 kgs @ 92.9kgs UnEq | I'm just starting to learn these, struggling a bit with the second part off the gut, any tips/hints at all. Also i am pretty lean and find it hard getting it onto the belly, i know alot of comps don't allow resting on the belt but do many people train this way. Just want to make sure i'm learning this correctly from the start. Thanks in advance for any help. | ||

 I was swinging out of control like an ape Member 1559, 4075 posts SQ 180, BP 100, DL 202.5482.5 kgs @ 90kgs UnEq | I can only belly clean about 100kg Im not shredded but dont have a belly, most u90 and some 105 comps allow belt cleans, only uk's 105 didnt this year I think. I just stick to belt cleans ive done 135kg appolons from belt but can only do 100kg belly clean lol I dont like the strain it puts on my lower back when leaning back its horrid, only other way to do it is clean it higher in the first place imo aim for lower chest top of abs with the first pull from floor | ||

Cheers mate. | ||

 I thought Joplin choked on a sandwich? Member 616, 8404 posts SQ 180, BP 130, DL 220530.0 kgs @ 78.8kgs UnEq | I tried it belt less. Was s**t. Always used a belt. Mastered it (I've not actually failed a cont clean, think I've gone up to 120+) then went back to belt less and found it much easier as I'd got the rhythm (gone up to 110) | ||
