It's funny that the top post on the sub today directly contradicts my own experience with 5/3/1, having said that my experience with SBS was disappointing (both times I tried I never finished due to injury, but didn't make any decent progress in the combined 22 weeks I ran it). Different strokes.

In any case, entering a deload after a successful 1+ week. Running 5's PRO for 3 months now, I set an all time 10RM in my squat (172.kg) and deadlift (200kg), by 7.5kg and 5kg respectively. Both of which weren't to failure, but they were my goals and I'm happy to leave 1-2 reps in the tank. Personally, taking sets to failure has been a recipe for injury in the past. All of this while very slowly shedding 2.5kg over a 5 month period.

Taking this week to implement 2-3 runs a week before starting a new cycle. I've dropped a lot of accessories, each day will have 3 compound movements and a giant set of 3 accessories, to be done in 15 minutes, along with BJJ three days per week and 2-3 light runs. I've slowly built up to this and I feel great, and have no doubt it will be easy. Plus, I'll get to eat more.
