Highest score Ive ever had was early 80s, so happy with that. Bench has dropped significantly over the last few years. However, overall ratios are more balanced.

Back to losing weight

Current bw 103kg, bf maybe 20%..no idea.
Calory goal will be 2000Cal with atleast 180g of protein for now.
Main foods will be milk, barrumandi fish, chicken breast, meatballs, buckwheat and salad.
Training will be 531 5x5 FSL with pulling supersetted with pushes. Sled push on lower days and rope pull on upper days.

[TAWS6]

Do you like 531 better than f5 lulpp? I always thought the percentages were kind of annoy to figure out but now there’s an app for it.

[tommy4life]

I like the autoregulation aspect. Especially during a cut. Some days I feel like crap and hit lower numbers on the amrap. When I feel good I'll go all out. Don't know if it's more effective than the straight sets of F5.. maybe it isn't, because straight sets force you to up the weight. Main reason I switched from F5 is that it became too hard. Hitting squats for 3x5 of a heavy weight would drain me and I'd struggle to finish the rest of the workout.

[TAWS6]

That’s funny because I switched because the upper days were too long lol. We need a 531 F5 hybrid apparently.

531 upper day takes me less then 40min, with all the supersetting. What was your biggest issue with 531, besides calculations?

[TAWS6]

531 upper day takes me less then 40min, with all the supersetting. What was your biggest issue with 531, besides calculations?

I didn't like the 5x10 work. Also doing the whole upper body in one workout, twice per week was a lot. The push/pull days on F5 are easier.

That's definitely true, those push pull days were quick and easy. I also agree on the 5x10. They felt more like an endurance workout for me with not enough intensity, but my conditioning does blow. That's why I like the FSL back of sets more. One hard set all out set and 5 easier sets where I can really focus on slow controled reps.
