Lately I've been having some issues with the clean. My pull is faulty, but I can get the bar reasonably high enough - but then I can't rack it in time. I find it hard to catch it in the squat, too.

Also, I've been having some lower back tightness when I lean back too far.

Any ideas?

Alex -

You shouldn't be catching the bar in a squat - especially if you're pulling it so high. You need to receive the bar at whatever height you pull it to, and then ride it down into the squat. Work on muscle cleans and tall cleans to get stronger, faster and more accurate with your turnover.

When you lean too far back doing what? Pulling? Check hip flexor tightness.
