    You're likely not going to be able to run this 6 days/week in a productive manner. Even 4 days you'd prob be better off structuring it differently.

    Any suggestions on that? Also, think anything crucial is missing from this strength/power routine?

    Not sure I’d call it a strength/power routine, but I already gave suggestions on another totally diff routine of yours yesterday so I’m guessing this one will hit the scrap heap by tomorrow anyway.

    I thought this was an attempt at a hypertrophy program. Adding cleans doesn't make it power-focused.

    This is literally a slightly modified version of a college wrestling strength program.

    So? That program was derived from the same routine I mentioned above, I posted another version today because that one was apparently not very good (as you also said). If this is also insufficient, yes, this will also hit the scrap heap by tomorrow.

    This is an older article but it gives you an idea of the thinking involved with building a powerlifting program.

    This is pretty much the official strength training program of a college wrestling team.
