I pulled 265 today. I led off with deadlift today so I was fairly fresh (had just worked 8 hours) going into it. I started with 225, then 245, which didn't feel that heavy, so I went 255, waited a few minutes and went for 265. It was really grindy so I knew 270 wasn't going to happen.
I also spent a week keeping a food diary to see what I'm actually taking in. Calories averaged 2859, which is a little bit more than I thought. Protein at 106 g/day, which could stand to be more*. I drink too much beer, but then I already knew that.
As for adding cleans, I would have to subtract something else. I haven't been seriously training lower body very long and it's easy for me to overtrain. I should probably sit down and go through every exercise I do and why I do it. Some of them could probably stand to go.
*A popular youtube fitness personality and successful powerlifter who is the same weight as me aims for 250 grams carbs, 70 fat, and 170 protein per day.
