Split 5x5

Has anyone ever split the 5x5 routine into 6 days? Or just for a day here and there because of time, schedule etc. Yesterday I only had a half hr to get in some gym time. I couldn't do my entire routine so I am going to split it into squats and deadlifts and then today the OHP and Pullups. What do ya think? I have had to do this from time to time (4 kids, 2 jobs). Thanks for any input

    It's fine. Do what you can in the time you have.

    As long as your hitting every body part at least once a week, a 6 day split or quick workout should be fine...just make sure your going to complete failure so the muscle isnt recovered after 1 day and just sitting there for 5
