Damn I missed that comment and deloaded the 5x10 as well so I can’t really give you any advice on the matter since I seem to have screwed it up.

Eh, I may have just misread the comment.
Ah that’s good. Not for your reading comprehension I guess, but I was glad for the deload after month 2 but felt like a total pussy after reading your post 
Hey guys, not sure if this question has been answered somewhere but I could not find it if it has. Are you guys bumping up the weights by 5 or 10# for upper and lower lifts after each month or keeping everything the same just using different perentages for each seperate phase of BBB challenge? Starting 2nd month of the challenge next week, so far fantastic, painful results. also, what is the general consensus of types of conditioning you guys are doing other than what is stated in article(walking)? cheers!

You bump the training max each month, which also bumps your accessory work.
Its easier to say it with an example:
Your Training Max is 300 for Month 1, and you will work with 50% of 300.
Your Training Max is 310 for MOnth 2, and you will work with (I forget the increase but whatever it is)% of 310
Your Training Max is 320 for Month 3, …% of 320.
@VTBalla34 thanks brother, appreciate it. thats what i was leaning towards. Cheers!
Hey just finished week 1 of BBB challenge. This will only be my second month doing any 5/3/1 program, but I found the 50% of 1RM relatively easy for my first week. I’d say due to a more bodybuiling style training I have done in the past, anyways would yous recommend bumping up to the 60%? or stay at the 50 for the time being.thanks!
First month isn’t all that hard. Wait for month 3. I dreaded squat Mondays
I thought of month 1 as an adaptive phase to more rep work. I don’t see why not bump up the % if you are already used to higher volume work. But then again I’m no expert on these matters and prefer to do things as written in the program.
So the consensus around here is 60-90 second rest periods between the sets of 10?

I would agree 
Around month 3, things started to get a bit, wow.
I don’t find the BBB boring at all, it’s more like holy christ just a few more reps/sets.
Also - started at 50% on the 5x10s and moved that up to 60% and, I usually round up a little and keep things to the 5 & 10lb plates… usually
