I mean...eat at a surplus, log and track macros, run any proven strength or hypertrophy program, and probably for longer than 8 weeks.

5x5 will build a good amount of strength, but hypertrophy probably not so much. Tension over time is a proven method for hypertrophy and usually reps are 8-12 with a high volume of sets (16-24 sets per body part) are usually the way to achieve this. And yes, I've tried many many methods even with the one set to failure methods for hypertrophy.
