I just finished 5 cycles of 5/3/1 and now I'm on my third week of PHUL, with glute bridges added and possibly some other Strong Curves lower body work. I'm going to go back to adding weekly weight on my deadlift, squat, and bench in the same fashion as the 5/3/1 program though because I'm all over the place and need that consistency.0

Cool. What was the reason for changing from 5/3/1 if you don't mind my asking?0 -

I was doing 5/3/1 while I was losing fat because I got into power lifting and the program made sense. But now I'm trying a recomp and want the added hypertrophy work, and to hit all upper and lower twice a week, to see if I can get any results. I was doing the body building assistance work Wendler has on his website but it was just kind of meh...I do miss progressively adding weight that way though (even though I'm kind of stalled at the moment).0 -

Ah I see, and understand. Have you looked into the "Beyond 5/3/1" book? There are loads of programs there. I also wanted some hypertrophy, so I do my 5/3/1 sets, then afterwards add what Jim calls "Joker Sets" and then finish off by doing my first set last, ie if your first work set was 100kg for 5 reps, you would do that and all your other work sets, joker sets and then finish off by hitting your first set again, either for mutliple sets or 1 big AMRAP set, however you see fit really. I find it a good way to get extra volume in. I also add additional body building type movements afterwards, if I have time.
I hope this makes a little sense at least!

Yeah, I used to see the guys in the group posting about this but honestly I was just trying to get a hang of the basics because it was the first real program I tried. Hmm...Now I'm intrigued. Maybe I'll switch back.
One thing I like about PHUL is that all power is done in 2 days, Upper power and Lower power. So my other two days of upper and lower hypertrophy feel a little less daunting after my long work days (new schedule), than needing to go in and do power 4 days a week. Although the power days are intense ha.
But thanks, I have been meaning to look into Beyond 5/3/1 more.0 -

Strength training and tennis.0

It really depends on your goals. I train specifically for my career (firefighter). Stamina AND strength are a must. I have a hybrid program. Cardioweights. 70% of my max in non stop supersets. Start off by loosening up with 100 burpees n move on to my specific workout..ie back n bi..chest n tri...leg n shoulders.0

Stronglifts 5x5, jump rope, bicycle recently got added to repertoire. Am going to start adding some other stuff like bring back the dumbbells, YEAH!0

Whatever fresh torture my coach comes up with for me. Currently have an insane volume load for the last big push to prime me for provincials in July.0
