What the fuck is this shit, /fit/? I am doing SS and my power cleans are stalling even though my other lifts are progressing. I know power cleans are more dependant on genetics but surely they wouldn't stall on 55 fucking kilograms?

Is this a new meme?

Explosiveness relies a lot on genetics.

More to do with fast twitch fibres

born with 1 leg?
Try hang cleans, I'm sure you fail the transition from the first to the second pull.

You can develop fast twitch muscles bud. Power clean is more than genetic.
Practice technique, your technique is probably shit
Keep the bar close to your body, learn to fully extend
Start with hang cleans, then practice power shrugs, then put the two together
Consider some kind of circuit training with light hang cleans if you are too retarded to teach yourself, your body will adapt to the most efficient movement. But this is unnecessary if you can teach yourself properly

I know the deal op. Would have to power clean in high school for football and while my other lifts would go up, cleans would progress slowly. By the end of my freshmen year I'd get 170lb, end of sophomore year 200lb, and I think my max ever in high school was 220. A lot of my class mates were getting up to 270 or 280 even. Wierd because my bench was better than most

Should've included high pulls (with focus on keeping the bar close) in the third line

He didn't say exclusively genetics, retard.
