Impressive lifting man.
I’ll be interested to see how the 3/5/1 approach works for you. I switched to it for deadlifitng early in the year with good results - have recently implemented 3/5/1 for all my lifts, but still using the Full Body Template.
What is your back squat max?
And do you find the paused benches have good carryover? My bench is pitiful and I have real trouble improving it.
