Can still nail the snatch Member 168, 758 posts SQ 205, BP 90, DL 202.5497.5 kgs @ 74kgs UnEq | While I was doing a bit of coaching with the guys down the gym they always ask questions like how much is a good so and so lift - I say just train and try to get stronger dont worry about what other people do then this question came up which was actually quite a valid one for a change I read years ago you should do about 75% mine was about 93% 172 clean / but with only 185 fr sq I remember my team mate many years ago 145 clean 195 front squat ? so as a straw poll what 'split was/is yours ? thoughts ? strong pull just very effective clean crap squat or bit of both | ||

 I took about £4 out of Sooty's bottom Member 685, 8719 posts SQ 225, BP 150, DL 290665.0 kgs @ 93kgs UnEq | Do you want power clean number too? I'm sure many people like myself won't have a full clean number. If so mine is 100/155. | ||

 tight in the hole Member 2057, 3121 posts SQ 205, BP 140, DL 260605.0 kgs @ 95kgs UnEq | I've heard that you should be able to clean you front squat triple. Which actually sounds pretty heavy now I think about it | ||

nothing to hide, please follow my life on webcam Member 255, 3732 posts | I've also read various opinions. Personally I would have thought 75% was very low and expected a far higher clean percentage from a technically sound lifter. My best clean in training was 180kg with a 200kg f squat. I suspect I might have even cleaned more, but seeing as I couldn't get anywhere near jerking it there didn't seem much point. I seem to remember Giles Greenwood could clean at least as much as he could f squat at one stage. Obviously a good position to be in to make the most of your strength | ||

Gone and easily forgotten....... Member 331, 22298 posts SQ 185, BP 100, DL 230515.0 kgs @ 85kgs UnEq | On average, the Chinese front squat 109% of their cleans, and the Russians front squat 118% of their cleans, I read somewhere. Clean 90% of your front squat is something I've read a few places too. | ||
