    I can think of a whole crapload of people just on my friends list alone that have incredible definition that use powerlifting and compound work, rather than wasting time with isolation work. Isolation work has its place, but they're called "accessory lifts" for a reason.

    I dont consider myself " wasting time" because i do this type of thing. I also add compound lifts....i just think the 5x5 program is over rated. Ive shed 80 lbs doing this kind of thing and made alot of gains. Everyone will have their opinions on these forums but, they should not be put down or looked down upon because of what they choose to do. No one thing is better than the other. Its what will work for you and what you will stick with and challenge yourself with .
