Ok, so ive decided to go with 5/3/1+ and fsl 5x5 for my next 6 week cycle but i would like to add some farmer’s walk on lower body days… it would look like this

-OHP 5/3/1
FSL 5X5
DB ROWS 5X10
TRICEPS 5X10

-DEADS 5/3/1
FSL 5X5
BICEPS 5X10
FARMERS WALK (FOR DISTANCE)

-BENCH 5/3/1
FSL 5X5
DB ROWS 5X10
TRICEPS 5X10

-SQUAT 5/3/1
FSL 5X5
BICEPS 5X10
FARMERS WALK (FOR DISTANCE)

Would it work? Any modification? Im after strenght and size and been already training for a year and half with 5/3/1 various templates

I would add chins/pull ups in on upper body days.

Yea im going to do chins between main pressing and fsl pressing movement on upper body days… already been doing this and it feels damn good

I don’t think the farmers walks would be a problem.

Great, thanks… always wanted to do farmers walk but never did for a reason or another so this seems the most logical way to include them

If you are interested in getting stronger with it, I had great success using the 65%,75%,85% protocol. Set a fixed distance, say 80 feet, then week one build up to a final run with 65%, week 2; 75% etc…
