I think it is a very solid program, just not my mindset/objectives right now. I will probably start using in in 2012 when everyone else is on 6/4/2 or some other such program.

“overhead squats” and “i like” only combine in the sentences of the hardcwore! lol
Good luck with the 5.3.1- I got a little bored with it, but there’s room for individual creativity with assistance work etc., so you can keep it interesting and it’s a solid format.
Happy Boit’day Kmac.

What’s this? kevin and I share a Boit’day? awesome
happy birthday, kevin!
thanks People… I turned 38 cake pics to follow!
blew off training for a few days of the home repair.
back on monday-
Welcome to 38 Kevin. I have a couple of months on you. Don’t worry, it isnt’ that much worse than 37. Except that I have found myself gazing out windows at nothing, playing parcheese more and more, and wanting a nice shawl wrapped around my shoulders. Oh, and contemplating a time share in Scottsdale… lol.
Welcome to the 5/3/1 club. Solodog will give you the tour and LS will teach you the handshake.
Happy belated birthday, Kevin. I hope you had a great day.
kevin, the mathineer
tolja, resistance was futile. you have been assimilated. Happy birthday, too. hope you made time for a 40!
Better late than never…Happy Bday!
Thanks for all the Berfday wishes!!!
first wave week day what ever 531
mobility including dislocates, lytp 2x , mo and mo dislocates.
A OH press bar x lots,95x5, 105x5, 120 x 10 ( felt sad )
B1 pull up 10,8,8,8,5,5,6 =50
B2 wide grip dip 4x15 = 60
my OH pressing strength is in the crapper.
I should have done face pulls or power cleans first.
could’nt get with it today- even the bar felt heavy.
I might need to reset some maxes a little lower- knocked off 10%
but think I might go lower to get some of the higher rep benefits.
thanks for reading

Notes I would call this the tendinitis special- my OH pressing strength is in the crapper.

Pressing the weight of a full grown woman over your head 10 times ought not to make you sad…
It made me think I need to reset the maxes
and All I want to do is be as strong as Pushmepullme

Indeed. You could have pressed me holding a 5# dumbbell. 
Happy birthday! Maybe you got a camera as a present???

I’d give it a full month and then decide, kevin. 10 reps on your 5’s week isn’t bad. although I can understand wanting higher reps for the rehab aspects…
Kevin, you pressed my left leg ten times. Happy late birthday!
yeah, if you’re getting 10 on the 5 set, you are fine. I wouldn’t reset the max until you can’t hit the number at all.
Happy Bday!
