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

mine is 125/155 so 80%

Dosen't seem that bad? Need to get both up considerably! Mainly the clean.

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.

I've heard that you should be able to clean you front squat triple. Which actually sounds pretty heavy now I think about it

Bet you could power clean more than 100 if you wanted to!

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

115/180kg.... 64% - I'm rubbish at cleaning, something I'm working on!

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.
