5/3/1

What do you guys think of 5/3/1?

Tried it for a few months. Was ok for deadlift, but lost strength on bench and squat. I personally need to train squat and bench more often than once a week to see results, but others may respond differently.

This was while only training for powerlifting, btw. I wouldn’t do anything as intense as this while training for the sprints.

Here’s an old thread on the same topic:

Some great insight there.
