power clean day-

[MsBeverlyHills]

Tuesdays & Fridays-
3x5 pulls
3x5 cleans
3x5 jerks

is this what you guys are doing??? just curious..Im kinda new to oly lifts & dont want to overtrain...thanks all!!

 

[coolcolj]

depends

but I personally would do the pulls after the cleans and Jerks.
Cleans and Jerks work better with reps of 3 and under.
You could do pulls with higher reps like 5.

Lower reps more sets

so instead of 3x5, try 5x3

see how you go, depends on how much weight you use as well.
5x3 for each clean and jerks, maybe too much.

5x3??? than add some weight???

btw CoolCol-- I started wearing a shirt like you suggested (only for oly lifts)...than I strip-down to slutty sports bar when Im done...LOL!!

 

[coolcolj]

no - same weight you would use for 3x5, but done 5x3 style
That will keep your technique clean and speed up.

shirt? I don't recall advising you on that?

 

[MsBeverlyHills]

shirt-- protects my shoulders on front squats & cleans.

thanks-- will try the 5x3 & change up the order
