What is the the purpose of bar contact? How does it help with the clean and snatch?

[@BsCf27]

@CaliforniaStrength, i feel that I don’t generate as much force in my second pull making connection at the thigh and usually will make connection at the same position as my snatch. Thoughts to correct?

Didn't know Gerard Butler was a Weightlifting instructor

[@k0b0yash1]

I've heard high thigh for clean barbell contact point is better.
Any reason why that might the case, or totally untrue?

Too low contact on the snatch is no bueno for the guys. Lets just say a you dont want to teabag the bar. Ouch!

[@CaliforniaStrength]

True!
