Oh yah one more thing...when I was lowering from the clean position back into the hang position, this really sort of hurt my forearms and they got a bit tingly sometimes. Is this normal cuz Im just starting, or a form issue? Also, does any1 have that link of Olift variants? I forget where it is but I see it posted around here a lot. Thanks

That's weird. The top of my shoulder joint sometimes hurts from going to the rack position to the hang position. Perhaps try absorbing some of the weight with your thighs on the way down? Ideally you'd want to just drop the weight from the rack position, as I think going from rack to hang position can cause undue injury. Few of us have the right set up to do this though. Perhaps try using some leg bend to control the down portion?
