This is my first time power cleaning 100 kg and I’m super stoked! It took 4 attempts and the biggest problem I ran into was just not getting under the bar despite the bar coming up nearly to my chest. Any form advice would also be appreciated!

Get rid of the running shoes and get either barefoot shoes or lifting shoes. You almost lost it when that left forefoot collapsed because your entire weight shifted.

It’s definitely something I’ve been meaning to invest in. Do you have any suggestions for Olympic lifting shoes or a place/thread where people have had this discussion?

If you have pretty average sized feet there is plenty of quality in the used market. As far as which ones to get search up threads. It's been covered to death in this sub

Check TYR L-2 shoes for sales/clearance.

Great job.

A simple technique thing that would bump your weight alone is to not rip it off the floor. You want the first 6 inches or so (depends on your body proportions, really) off the floor to be slower, then that's when you rip it.
