Hi I have been doing this program for about 12 weeks and have seen great results, lost 4% bodyfat and gained 18lbs, although I think that is because I started eating better.
I would say that if your strength keeps rising but your development stopped, you’re probably in a calorie stasis. Up the kcals a bit and the growth should start again.
If you’re just getting bored with the routine, make some tweaks like changing the order of things, or change out a similar exercise or 2 for another.
If I’m assuming that you’re new to lifting, you can continue to make good gains on a program like yours for a long while. I think a lot of newbies (or anyone really) make the mistake of routine jumping too frequently.
I don’t know if I would consider myself that new to lifting because I was a powerlifter at my school four years ago, I’m 18 now. But I started lifting when I was 13 in football doing the basic bench, squats, powerclean.

I haven’t tested in a while but I did 250lbs 5x5 yesterday.
Squat
405lbs
Deadlift
425lbs[/quote]
I’d recommend maybe german volume for something completely different once your progress on your current routine tapers off.
I find that the program that you’re not doing tends to give the best results.
What exactly are your goals?
