    Question please check my program

    I'm following the 5x5 program setup from joeskopec.com. I'm doing two workouts per week.
    Workout 1
    power clean
    bench press
    squat
    Workout 2
    dead lift
    shoulder press
    bent rows
    I run them them in a circut with 1 minute rest intervalls
    I do 2 warm up sets 15 reps x 20% 10 reps x 40%
    Will this work ? I'm trying to gain some size but mostly speed and power. Thanks for any help

    If you want strength then you need to rest more than 1 minute between sets.

    Yeah, 2-3 min rest at least. I might have to try this sometime; I'll probably do 3 workouts a week, though.

    thanks for the help the 1 minute rest intrvals work because I run this in a circut not straight sets and I pyrimid the weight acording to the cycle from joeskopec.com the reason I asked for help is because I'm thinking of adding a 3rd work out it would be something like this
    calve press
    leg extension
    leg curl
    arm curl
    tricep press
    all for 3 sets of 10 reps

    1 min rest intervals would be fine for these exercises, but PC, bench, and squat? Dude, I think I would pass out by set #5.

    Thumbs up

    well I've seen spots and had out of body experiences, but I havn't passed out yet. Best of all I don't do any cardio other than 40 yard maximum sprints
