If you do one day for bench, another for squat, and another for deadlift then that isn't that bad at all if strength is your goal.

Nice powerclean!
You might want to do 3 or 4 reps instead of 5 on the powercleans to concentrate on the explosiveness more. Just an idea.

Sometimes,
i know when ive gone too far during cleans, when it starts to feel like cardio, and i see pretty little spots infront of me, lol
so yeah taking those down to 3-4 reps, isnt a problem, It will help in my opinion
thanks
