I think my arms are too long; I can't do it without fracturing my wrists. I have to do the cross-armed thing, too.

I have pretty llong arms too but I think its best to go with the catch from a clean. Takes a LONG time to get enough flexibility in your forearms but I love the way it feels. Crossed arms just feels akward.

You want big muscles, girly man? Find big rock. Pick up big rock. Raise big rock overhead. Repeat as neccesary.
