k.net...

Unusually high nose attitudes in power on stalls are almost always the
result of an improper set up for doing the stall. This involves excessive
energy (airspeed) that has to be bled off, especially in airplanes with
fairly powerful engines.
There's no need for an excessively high nose attitude when doing a power
on stall.
Try slowing the airplane first by throttling on back while rotating in
pitch, right on down to normal climb speed, then continue to rotate in
pitch while applying climb power to a normal climb attitude . From there
simply continue to increase pitch smoothly on into critical angle of
attack where the stall will occur.

How true...

After my first couple of attempts, my instructor (semi jokingly)
admonished me for attempting to perform a loop.

I saw Richard Petty try this at Telladega once, but the fence got in the
way and spoiled it for him.
