Errata: Practical Programming for Strength Training?

[Destrier]

Sir,
On page 106 if the second edition, "The deadlift is done for 1 set of 5 reps every fifth workout, due to its harder nature at heavy weights, and alternates with the power clean, which is done at 5 sets of 3 reps across." Is this what was meant to be said and not "3 sets of 5 reps across" on the power cleans?

If it was wrong, would it have survived the editing process twice?

It says why: because power cleans are more technical and to not let fatigue interfere with form.

[Tom Campitelli]

Better correct that in Starting Strength, too, Rip.

Better correct that in Starting Strength, too, Rip.

Also maybe 3,000 posts here on the site, give or take.

[Nick Klemetson]

Not to mention the training logs.

This reminded me of a couple of typos in the PPST2 Kindle. Page 163 location 2118: 'that' should be 'than'. And page 187 location 2423: 'ready try' should be 'ready to try'.

And power snatches probably ought to be done for 5 sets of 8 across, to hone technique.

It is a stack overflow exception. Just use the "Debug" command. More than likely a memory problem.

and there seems to be no other mention of this difference in the regimen though there is a very eloquent and erudite justification of fives. You can't expect me think now can you?
