5/3/1 PPL

by Andrew B.

Program Description

I like powerlifting and bodybuilding. 5/3/1 has worked well for me, and it’s lifting that I enjoy doing. Use 90% of 1RM as your training max. Switch out exercises as you like. Add/subtract sets as you feel. Main lifts>secondary>accessories. Skip accessories if needed. Reduce/consolidate/skip non main lift days if needed. Superset abs with accessory workouts if wanted. Add weight to training max and restart program when finished.
