Hello guys,
So the Bodybuilding, and newer versions of Starr's 5x5 programs replaced Power Cleans with Deadlifts. Anyone knows the logic behind it?
Starr in his book specifically called out Deadlifts and recommended against them for their high potential of injury and said it can be easily substituted with other workout. He prefers Power Cleans over Deadlifts.
