Good program. Gets a little boring but gives results for strength gains. Swap out some exercises if youre bored lol

The original program has many flaws, like the workouts in a week being very similar, or the excessive amount of volume. Just a generic PPL, do not recommend, I made better PPL workouts just using free knowledge from YouTube. If you want to make one yourself, check out Revival Fitness @REVIVALFitness.

Too much of the same auxilary movements for my liking, ran the program 6 days a week so would mod the 2nd of each day to keep it fresh

This program has a lot of volume. Especially for beginners, so I’d recommend starting with less sets than prescribed and working your way up for anything other than the first exercise. That volume is the exact reason why muscle and strength gains are so apparent, but a slow start is necessary to avoid fatigue. I’d also recommend less volume on accessories when reaching maximal load on your first exercise, then working your way up to the same volume as you plateau. The push and pull of volume to strength on this workout is excellent for a beginner/intermediate looking to take their physique to the next level. Also recommend swapping exercises depending on what your gym has, as well as comfort. I’ve gone from 135->155 on my 5x5 bench in about a month and a half, which is incredible progress in my opinion. Not to mention my physique exploding in all areas
