Substituting Power Cleans For Rows in 5x5

[dosteov]

I'm thinking of doing this. Do I keep everything else the same. My one question is would I still Deadlift on Wednesday or do HangCleans?

In the original version of the program there were power cleans instead of rows and high pulls instead of deadlifts. Everything else was the same as far as I can remember.

i believe mercere is right on the button.
matter of fact, i decided on a combination routine for my current 6 week block:
weeks 1,3 and 5 will be monday rows and wednesday deads.
weeks 2,4,and 6 are monday power cleans and wednesday power shrugs (jump shrugs whatever)
everything else the same......the fridays are the same except i'll do OH squats in place of regulars during weeks 2,4,6.

they are similiar exercises in form, so its mainly just a personal choice.....i like the variety and i like doing cleans and shrugs too
