the gym at my university is closing for 2 weeks, starting on december 20
so i got the idea to just do clean and presses with cardio until then
the program will look like this
saturday and sunday- 1 hour of cardio
Monday/Wednesday/Friday- Clean and press with a full front squat 2 warm up sets, 4-5 work sets of 15 reps
cardio throughout the school week will be 30 minutes
Im currently cutting so is this good? or should i add something
What purpose do you propose this will serve? Burn more fat?
If your gym is closing take advantage of the time you have left. Not to mention that high rep oly lifting is pointless.

yeah, my goal is fat loss.
since my current split is plateauing, i was just thinking about an " only cardio" routine until the gym closes
i want to do this instead of starting a new routine and having to stop right in the middle

Your split is plateauing ? You mean you are plateauing 
Sure you don’t just need some time off OR if you stall on a few exercise, just switch to alternatives for a while?
I definitely need some time off lol
that is why i want to only clean and press while doing cardio until that two week break
then i can start a new split
does that make sense?
No gym? In a fat loss stage? Do some crossfit WOD till you get your gym back.

yeah, my school closes the recreation center every semister for maintainance stuff,
but Im definitely willing to do Crossfit, can you explain
Have you checked any local gyms off campus? They might be able to hook you up with a 2 week membership for cheap. Stress the fact that you are a student.
Even Globo Gym is better than no gym.
To do 4-5 sets of clean and press for 15 reps you would have to use a pretty light weight. Anything after 6-8 reps of the clean and press gets pretty sloppy with me but I would rather work for weight than reps on this type of exercise. 5x5 with descent weight would be some good cardio. But I don’t know about doing it 3x a week. Switching it up wouldn’t hurt.
