Since I have been on this routine I have noticed that I have gained a great deal of strength in my core and stabilization muscles. I also didnt jump right into power cleans only because I wanted to get the form down on the other movements perfect before I move onto something more advanced. I added dips and pullups to fill in for the lack of power cleans.

One thing I want to note is how much the overhead presses have helped. I always did military presses sitting down with dumbells or at a machine and I thought it was a good work....lol the overhead presses with a straightbar standing are way more intense and a better overall workout. In the begining of this routine I had some back pain, but now my back feels stronger then ever and I think its due to doing all these compound workouts.

Topshelf, good luck with your routine.
