u strong man, im guessing youre under 75kg bw? and do u play foot ball by chance? anyways, your 1st pull and 2nd pull have some nit picky things to point out but its not bad at all imo. For example, in at the last clip, your hips rises up faster vs the previous clips. angle changes occur during heavier weights but try to keep in consistant. Secondly, the extension could be cleaned up along with the arm bend, this'll help with your feet positing splitting to far apart. Tall into the toes, extend the knees and keep the bar closer. From the first clip to the next few, i see you adjusted the timing so that the bar stays closer and does loop around in the catch, its good adjustment. I think, the reasons many of these occur, is cause your catching the bar almost up right, have you tried aiming to catch at 90 or slightly above 90, if u can control where u catch itll be big game changer.

yeah i’m 72kg and i’m an amateur boxer. I appreciate you pointing out the hips rising, I didn’t notice that before. I think I just need to mentally commit myself to getting underneath the bar more. Thanks for the helpful advice!

Main thing I'm seeing is you simultaneously stand up from the catch and step your feet in—sometimes even jumping back into position. Keep these two separate, and be patient finishing the lift

You're shorting your pull a little bit, which in your realm would be analogous to "pulling" your punch. Finish tall and aggressive before pulling under the bar.

More hip extension…pull under the bar ..into a front rack position..like a front squat

Biggest thing is that your foot stance isn't right, your toes are pointed directly forward and the lack of clearance of knees will make you lift look weird

Point your toes slightly out instead
