Well, I split my workouts to 2 upper body and 2 lower body days. It's kind of like the 5/3/1 since each day focuses on one of the lifts: bench, squat, deadlift, press. The goal is just to get bigger and stronger. I've been enjoying this type of workout a lot more because it's very flexible. I can also rely more on how i feel each day and adjust it on the spot.

Comments: Amazing day. The bar felt weightless. I felt like I could stand with 335 on my back all day if I wanted. I think 2 days between workouts is best. I think I may be losing my technique on the lifts though since the frequency that I do them is very low. 335 felt pretty awkward at the bottom even though I could get it up. I also want to get better at the different rep ranges but focus mainly on singles.
Nice man I wish 335 felt like I could stand there all day with it haha! I have those days sometimes too, squatting just literally feels effortless. Love that feeling
good squats bro! did u ever win that cutting bet wth ur friends?
5/3/1 is a god program, i am gonna do that or the 5x5 in spring for football, right now im jus doing a basic bb routine to get some size/strength while im on cycle
Hey thanks guys, unfortunately I'm still not back to 365 on squats haha. Oh most definitely won that bet. One of my friends gave up since it's too difficult for him to lose quickly...he's an endo and he's still losing..lost 12 pounds since the beginning of that competition. I beat my other friend who thought he could lose it quickly running 5 miles every other day. He's leaner than I ever was now but I was still able to lose it the quickest .
