1. A big concern of mine is that my cleans look like the bar is shooting forward. How can I prevent this?

[Daniel Frankel]

Rats. Okay, I'll really try to focus on setting up, taking the slack out of the bar, and then pulling.

[Jeff Enge]

I think he means the whole first pull. Should be relatively methodical until the bar gets past your knees. All the first pull is there for is to set you in the right position for the power part of the lift.
