5/3/1 Workout Programming Thoughts

Zack - Did some more thinking after we talked about the workout routine.  Here's something you could consider:

Monday
Squat – 5/3/1 (using Big Lifts app)
Bench – 55%x5, 65×5%, 75%x5
Assistance work (pull ups, dips, core + a couple other things as you wish)

Wednesday
Deadlift – 5/3/1
Overhead Press – 5/3/1
Assistance work

Friday
Bench – 5/3/1
Squat – 55%x5, 65%x5, 75%x5
Assistance work

Basically, it adds the extra sets of bench and squat to what we talked about, as well as overhead press.  I think the overhead is important for shoulder strength.  You could do each of these workouts in ~1 hour, and I think that the 5/3/1 progression will help you add a lot of strength.

If we don't end up with a public option at the federal level, at least have the ability for states to broaden the public participation in the system. The states are often considered, and allowed to be, crucibles of experimentation for policies like this. It's got the potential to do some real good.
