5/3/1 ppl

[Lucas5762]

Hi i saw this program on reddit, i've been lifting for 7 months and currently for 5 reps each have a 85/145/215/270 lifts, i have been doing 5/3/1 and stumbled upon this:
Push 1: bench 5/3/1, 5x10 of a bench accessory work (like boring but big template, 50-70% of your training max) at 50-70% of your training max then the rest of the bench push accessory work as normal

Pull 1: deadlift 5/3/1, 5x10 of a deadlift accessory, then the rest of the pull day as normal

Legs 1: squat 5/3/1, 5x10 of a squat accessory, then the rest of the leg day.

Push 2: OHP 5/3/1, 5x10 of an OHP accessory, then the rest of the push day.

Pull 2: 5x5 heavy barbell rows, then 5x10 another rowing variation, then the rest of the pull day as normal

Legs 2: front squat 5/3/1, 5x10 front squat accessory, then the rest of the leg day.

Is it retarded and should I just keep doing the normal 5/3/1 or should i switch to this? thanks!

Personally, I'd stick with 5/3/1. But then again, I'm no expert.

Give it a whirl for a couple of cycles. Remember, 5/3/1 is about the 5/3/1 lifts, not the accessory work.

This

There's a 5/3/1 variant made by geneswest. It could be run as PPL if you combine Bench and OHP into one day.

Currently doing it and I love it so far.
