Atheleticism is every bit as important to me as physique, I want both to be high quality. I'm thinking when I work back thickness it can go something like this.
Mon: Power Cleans 6-9 + 9-12
That Fri: Deadlift 6-9 + 9-12
Next Wed: High Pull 6-9 + 9-12
Note that I do the str8 set followed by a lighter set because I think trying to RP oly lifts can be dangerous.
2 out of the 3 lifts are oly lifts and, as far as I know, they will help thicken the back and help out with the traps (since no direct trap work is done on Dogcrapp).
Basically, what I want to know is can I develop a solid, aesthetic back by performing these exercises?
Also, what about Hang Cleans, Clean & Jerks, Power Snatches, etc. Would you substitute the exercises that I've chosen for any of these and for what reason?
I know that all of the oly lifts will help my speed and explosiveness, but what I want to know is which ones will be most helpful to develop a muscular back?
Any input is welcome, thanks.

They see indoctrination and they call it "morality", "professionalism", or "maturity" depending on the context.

olympic lifts aren't meant to be incorporated into Doggcrapp. The only thing I have seen dante incorporate into one of his trainee's routines is a quick clean from the waist into a shoulder press.
The reason why olympic lifts aren't in Doggcrapp is because every set is at or near failure. olympic lifts are meant to be done with precise form and when fatigue sets in, form will go.

very much true with lifts like snatches and clean & jerks but with the simplified versions like Power Cleans and High Pulls I've found that I can go to failure with good form that's why I chose them (I've been doing them on Max-OT which takes every working set to positive failure and I can do them with perfect form almost every set), but I just don't know hwo effective they will be to develop back thickness. I know that they blast the traps really well but other than that I just don't know.
