Thoughts on Squat:

First time using a monolift and squat bar. Struggled with this. Couldnt find a good spot on my back with the bar. Messed up my foot placement. Though I have an excuse for my squats, i'm not satisfied. For the amount of squatting I did, I feel like I should have been stronger. I'm probably stronger, but we'll never know.

Thoughts on Bench:

No denying i'm stronger on bench. Happy with the results here.

Thoughts on Deadlift.

573 went up faster than my 562 did a few months ago. This is probably because A) we had an Okie bar, and B) i'm a little stronger. No complaints.


Overall, i'm satisfied though. I REALLY want to keep doing Sheiko, but I need to cut weight. Going to to switch to 5/3/1 for 8-10 weeks while I try to cut 15lbs. Then, back to Sheiko. Probably run 29-37-32 again.

Thanks for the report

I think you have a very nice technique with the bench, the deadlift seemed nice aswell. Good speed.

Have friends that have done 531 a while. Is it really the best for such a short period? 2 months isn't a long time, maybe its enough with a "ordinary" program with heavy weights and a lttible bit lower volume?

That said, i like 531

Thanks! Thats what I really like about Sheiko... it really perfects your form. And normally my squat form is pretty good too, i think

I'm not sure how 531 will turn out... i dont know much about it. However, I tried Sheiko while cutting and it did NOT work well... As long as I maintain my strength while I cut down to 230 i'll be more than satisfied

I have also tried Sheiko whilst cutting, it was tough...

Even got injured.

531 is a good program, and easy to change exercies and still follow the program
