knee and ankle joint power outputs in competitive weightlifters during the first pull and transition phases and reported that joint peak power output did not alter with increasing load at the hip, knee or ankle.
In the second pull phase, peak hip,
knee and ankle joint angular velocities are around 420 — 470, 280 — 400, and 210 — 370 degrees / s, respectively (Gourgoulis et al. 2002; 2009; Akkuş, 2012; Harbili, 2012; Harbili & Alptekin, 2014) and are not affected by the load used (Harbili & Alptekin, 2014) or whether the lift was successful (Gourgoulis et al. 2009).

Suchomel et al. (2014e) compared jump shrugs with 40 %, 60 %, and 80 % of 1RM hang power clean and found that the angular velocities of the hip,
knee and ankle joints were highest with the lowest load used (30 % of 1RM hang clean).
Although peak velocity is less well - studied, linear barbell velocity reduces with increasing load (Suchomel et al. 2014a), as do the angular velocities of the hip,
knee and ankle joints (Suchomel et al. 2014e).
Exploring the effects of training variables, Kellis et al. (2005) found that joint angles differed between relative loads but did not identify how the individual hip,
knee and ankle joints differed; however, List et al. (2013) found that increasing load caused peak ankle angle to become more acute, from no load to 25 % of bodyweight, to 50 % of bodyweight.
Exploring the effects of training variables, Kellis et al. (2005) found that joint angles differed between relative loads but did not identify how the individual hip,
knee and ankle joints differed; however, McKean et al. (2010) reported that peak hip angle was more acute with load compared to no load, while both List et al. (2013) and Gomes et al. (2015) reported that peak hip angle became less acute with heavier relative loads.
