Hello everyone
I feel its time I moved onto the texas method as I have milked SS for everything I can, how does this set up look?

Monday
Squat 5x5
Bench 5x5
Chin ups 5x5

Wednesday
Light squats 3x5
Overhead press 4x5
Rows 4x5

Friday
Squat 1x5
Bench 1x5
Closegrip bench 2x8
Deadlift 1x5
Dips 2x8
Pullup 3x failure

I would really appreciate any comments or advice on this set up
Thanks Jonson
