I know why my chest day suffered today :)

It depends. On the heavy day it's 1 - 2 minutes or so between sets. On the lighter days, usually 1 minute. I generally do 4 sets on everything too, so that could be why.0 -

I'm currently running a lightly modified version of PHUL and have been really digging it.
Just knocked out week 5 of this, love it so far. Thanks again for pointing this out.0 -
Half way through Week 11, so far this has been great, only one more week, then I'm going to try a different program.0

Well it's a 12 week program
I figured I would try another 6 - 12 week program for a change of pace, then I'll go back to PHUL again after that. That's the only reason.
I'm going to try this, which is a 5 day a week program, if I dont' like it, I'll go back to PHUL.

You can run a program for as long as you are progressing. I've been running PHUL for 2 years and I have no plans on switching to anything else yet.2 -
"Winners don't need variety, they need results."
Just a line from one of my favorite strength coaches that I follow. If it's working, then ride the wave until it doesn't. Don't let training A.D.D get in the way of results.1 -

WELL!!!!
With all of your nice comments, I guess I'll stay with PHUL. Thank you all for chiming in I appreciate it. I may modify it a hair this time, but not too much.
Thanks again though, and Happy Thanksgiving.2 -
I'm still happy with P.H.U.L. While my bench hasn't been increasing lately(could be because I lost some weight), my squat and deadlift has increased. When I started a year ago, 135lbs on the bench felt heavy, 185lbs on the squat was heavy, 185lbs on the deadlift seemed heavy.
Now I'm doing 245 - 250lbs x 5 on the bench, did 305lbs x 5 on Squat, and 425lbs x 3 on deadlift this past week.
On hypertrophy days I"m doing 245lbs x 12 for 4 sets on squat. Hopefully in a few months, I'll be doing 315lbs x 5 on heavy days, and around 275lbs x 8-12 on light days. I'm thinking it may be time to invest in some knee sleeves though.0
