Looks fine Hops.

On Monday, you might consider alternating heavy triples with heavy fives as the stress. Doing so might help you make a longer run at it. Looking back at it I wish I had done that. Also, be careful not to increase the sets just for the sake of increasing the sets. There was a couple of times I had to decrease the sets on stress day to keep friday moving. One week I was so tired I skipped all the bench work on Monday and set another PR on Friday.

I like the idea of cycling through singles, triples, and fives on Performance day. I would suggest cycling through higher reps on the chin though, say 10's, 8's and 5's maybe. Remember though that friday doesn't always have to be a PR. If you're not feeling up for it just do a heavy lift. Also, don't worry if you miss a PR one week, just keep going with the cycle as long as you feel fine. When you get down to it, progress on Monday is the important thing.

I'm sure you'll figure things out as you go along mate.

Cheers,
Jeff
