Why so many singles on the cleans? Just curious.

What’s the problem?

i saw it on elitetrack.com, its for power endurance. im using it instead of high rep sets of cleans during the hypertrophy phase, and my plan is to over the next few weeks decrease the reps and increase the intensity and rest before transitioning to max strength

Never said anything was wrong with it. I was asking him the reasoning behind it. Nothin more or less.

Cool makes sense. Thanks for the clarification.

I wouldn’t say power endurance but more work capacity development.

How many weeks do you plan on sticking with the 10reps for squats? Do you like the density cleans?

as for squats im staying in 8+ reps for the first 4 weeks then im going to do mid rep stuff like 5x5 for a few weeks. i have it kinda planned but for weights, the workouts are made depending on how i am feeling at the time. Originally i was gonna do a max strength phase after that, but im thinking about not doing too formal of a MaxS phase since im still relatively untrained and might not be appropriate or needed. What are you thoughts on that?

As for cleans, they are not nearly as difficult as i thought they would be. i can easily finish the session with no problems. I find keeping track of the time more difficult than actually completing the workout. I think they are helping me but i find them boring an monotonous and cant wait to be done with them.
