What’s a good power clean?

[deadshot138]

Recently added power cleans to my back workout for variety, doing sets of 3. Today I hit 240 for a triple, a number I think is shitty for my size.

What’s the strength standard for a power clean? Bodyweight?

I'd guess that 1.5xBW would not be too shabby.

Correct answer: more than you were doing a month ago.

But if feel the need to measure yourself against others: http://www.exrx.net/Testing/WeightLifting/CleanStandards.html
