Beginner, Recommendations?

Training Log is up

I’ve decided on 5/3/1 for Beginners, as outlined in 5/3/1 Forever. Planning to run it 5x a week until I stall, then 4x a week. If I get crushed recovery wise, I’ll learn from my mistake.

I will also admit out of respect for Wendler that this book was given to me online through a link, so I dodn’t really pay for it, and I would like to apologize to Wendler personally for not only taking his money but modifying his program. However, my philosophy will be, if it doesn’t work, then I’ll change something.

The days will be structured as follows:

Workout A:

  • Squat
  • Bench
  • Assistance (50-100 reps of Push/Pull/Core movements)

Workout B:

  • Deadlift
  • OHP
  • Assistance (50-100 reps of Push/Pull/Core movements)

Conditioning will be done everyday in the morning. Will eat and sleep to recover.
