In Response To: Things to help drop under the weight in the clean? (Charles Fay)

Chuck,
Try having them squat clean from the hang. Stress staying over the bar (chest and shoulders in front of the bar as long as possible) the "TOP DOWN" METHOD IS THE BEST WAY TO LEARN IT.
Use approx 40%/50% of best power clean to start, work up to 60% then 70%. If they are comfortable doing the movement, then
repeat weights from the floor. BE PATIENT !!! Without seeing them train this is what I would try.
