For what if’s worth, I find the leader/ anchor 2/1 cycles way too short.
I split my training a little by the weather.
But I like too just build up for 9-10 months. Reset as needed, and when I’m feeling good throw some extra weight on the bar , but not more often than 1x per wave per exercise, usually less like ev 2-3 waves. Then see what I can do at the end of the 9-10waves, unless a little injury pops up ( more than the aches and pains).
I think 531 is not great ,but doable for peaking. I’m sure many would disagree. It’s a framework for me to train.
Just my opinion.

Hope your feeling better soon, and killing the BTN again
Thanks…Not yet in the walking dead mode just yet. Got my fingers crossed that I just got a case of the blahs going on and I will dodge any bugs.
Trap Bar : 335 x 6
DB rows: 40/4 @ SW TR 45
K Rows : 45/3 @ SW TR 55
Seat Band Hamstring curls: 50 total
a few things… Pushing the secondary stuff hard also holding off doing any direct midsection work. Believe that I might have a minor tweak in my lower abdominals.
Yippy treadmill …
Glad to read you’re successfully dodging bugs.
That might be yet to be seen😥
