Ben Hinkle showing us what happens when you relax during a clean. Right before you catch a clean, you MUST be AGGRESSIVE with the elbows (pointing them straight ahead very quickly) and hold your CORE as STRONG as you can. On this lift Ben was very quick with his elbows but  lazy with his core and was not prepared to brace the load on his shoulders. The load fell forward causing him to shift his weight to his toes and eventually lose a lift that he was very capable of completing.   - Coach Matt
