I have been doing 5/3/1 for about 6 months now. here’s my routine:
OHP day: OHP 5/3/1 sets with FSL AMRAP set
bench 5x10@50% super set with lat. pulls 5x10
close grip cable rows 5x10
incline bench 3x10 (incline DB hurt my shoulders)
shrugs 3x15
Deadlift day: deads 5/3/1 with FSL AMRAP set
squats 5x10@50%
hanging leg lifts 3x15 (or any other exercises I want to hit)
Bench day: bench 5/3/1 with FSL AMRAP set
OHP 5x10@50% super set with lat. pulls 5x10
BB rows 5x10
weighted dips 5x10
face pulls 3x10
Squats day: squat 5/3/1 with FSL AMRAP set.
deads 5x10@50%
ham curls 5x10.
I have made good progress this way however my bench has been stuck for a couple cycles. I need more sets for bench that are higher % then 50. I was reading the books and came across a part where it says for BBB sets I can do 5x5@80.
so I want to try and substitute 5x5 in place of the 5x10 however would it be better to not do the “less boring” option that way? (deads with BBB squats, bench with BBB OHP etc,etc.)? would it be better to hit the 5/3/1 sets with the same 5x5 sets or alternate like above? critique this routine please and any input
