In power cleans, how to get under the bar quicker?

Move faster.

be stronger

Any exercises to help with the speed?

>Engage the hips by pushing feet into the floor to engage glutes
>Keep this engagement the entire time
>"Jump out, not forward or backwards"
>throw elbows to the sky

It's what has worked for me.

Use this cue if you aren't already: PULL yourself UNDER the bar. This enables you to place the bar on your clavicles instead of waiting on it to fall.

practice with bands or chains.

I have 8months experience of olympic lifts and these cues have helped me the most to get under the bar:

1) Keep your arms relaxed. It can take months really, it's not very simple to do. What helps this is to get your back as tights as possible and feel the weight rest on your hook grip. Yes, you have to use HOOK GRIP. Don't try to squeeze the bar at all with your ahnd.

2) Don't pull with your hands and shoulders too soon. Only after you have finished triple extension. After that, pull yourself under the bar FAST. But remember to pull the barbell upwards (elbows upwards). Your elbows should straighten at the same time your feet land on the floor.

3)Complete the second pull fast, and fuse the third pull with it. There should be no pause between. The better you get, the faster you can do the third pull after triple extension (they fuse together). If you fail to accelerate the bar enough after second pull, your third pull will be slow too.

you need to pull yourself under, this is tough if the weight on the bar is less than your bodyweight.
