Cleans are the same thing as O/H press.
My goals aren't just strength training either. I don't really care what number I'm lifting. I'm trying to get back into general shape and to look better.

Fair enough. Strength training will accomplish that though. Most good lifters build a strength foundation then add in the types of assistance lifts (fluff) your doing as they progress to intermediate and advanced levels. More than one way to skin a cat though. Bench, Squats, and Deads will remain the staple of any good program (powerlifting or bodybuilding) I emphasize the book because it gives detailed instruction on how to do the lifts. Most people squat like shit.
