Not really! I just didn't want to discuss a lot of theoretically stuff if you had more or less settled on a choice. Only thing you have to consider on that is progression. And with 5x3 trying to load or add sets it's going to be VERY hard to keep that going. It might work but just not very long. Unless you use something submax like starting with a 5 or 6RM load....but then it won't be enough to get any PR's going. You'd really be better off with 5x5 or even 4x6 or something like that.

3x8 deads is WAY too much...especially on light day. If you wanted to to deads like that you'd need to put them on Friday. That's a big jump up on deads and probably unecessary. If you wanted deads on wed then I'd recommend sticking to 1x5. If you put them on friday you could do maybe 2x5 and add reps here and there rather than load all the time. But if you add sets after that keep in mind it's really a big jump up in volume so it could effect recovery.

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.
