For the deadlift, keep the bar close to the center of your mass, and try to keep the bar traveling on a straight path. For the clean, start with the bar a tiny bit away from the legs and sweep it back a little before you jump.

It can be really fun to workout in a big group and feed of the energy of others. It can be equally great to be in a small group where you can really focus on skill and technique.

It is hard to make the transition from pulling weight off the floor for a deadlift and for a clean or snatch. Each set up position is a bit different. For a deadlift, we want nearly vertical shins and shoulders just over the bar. This makes the hips a little higher and helps to keep the bar traveling stright up and down.
