Read the 5-3-1 and sounds perfect for me and will deft give it a go but just not yet, I haven't hit a platu yet and still making gains so I came up with my own routine, still going to do 5 sets of 5 and ad 5lbs each work out but only squatting once a week and benching twice a week... Also adding just a lil acc work and one more day a week of training..... I just don't want to take weight off to start the 531 when I just finally got into some decent weight.... Once I hit that wall tho I plan to follow 5-3-1 to a tee... So what do you guys think of my routine? Not set in stone yet just a basic idea.... Changes,comments and concerns welcome.

Monday deadlift 1x5 or 5x1
** * * * * * * * Pull up 5x5

Tuesday flat bench 5x5
** * * * * * * * *Dips 5x5
** * * * * * * * *Cable tri's 2 sets 8-12 rep

Wed. * * * Rest

Thurs. * *Squat 5x5
** * * * * * * * Military press 5x5
** * * * * * * * Ham rises ???

Friday. *Bench 5x5
** * * * * * * *Rows 5x5
** * * * * * * *Good mornings ???

Kroc rows in with ur bench. U need to build a strong foundation for bench. Then rotate ur krocs with wide lat pull downs. Good mornings are good but I wouldn't do them on bench day. Put them with squats or deads. If ur doing body weight dips then up it to 10-12. Once again let's get that foundation built solid. Just my opinion though. Jb

Dips will be weighted and ad every week, also deadlifts I'll alternate every Monday with squats.... Wasn't sure the best place for military presses? Does this look better?
