So now that I've done the 5x5 twice I'm thinking of adopting a program based off the pull/push/squat days. Here is my basic idea for the layout.
Monday: Pull
Deadlift
BOR
Pullups
Wednesday: Push
Bench Press
Incline Bench Press
Military Press
Friday: Squat
Squat
Front Squat
Standing Barbell Calf Raises
As you will note i didnt put down a rep or set range for my new program. I was hoping to get some feedback before I settle on a set/rep scheme. The FAQ recomends a 5x5 for most of the excersises however I note that in many peoples logs they tend to start with a light 5 rep and pyramid up to heavy doubles and even singles. Is this something I should be considering or should I stick with 5x5? Also what should the set/rep scheme for the assistance lifts look like?
Thanks, WinterisComing
